8/10
The staff were really friendly, and the location is great, close to a subway stop. I stayed in the 8 bed dorm, which had plenty of space, lockers, and outlets at every bed. Breakfast was bread, cake, ham, cheese, and coffee or juice.

We arrived with a booking change that had already been confirmed, but they said it wasn’t in their system and there were no beds left. We offered to stay with a friend nearby, but they wouldn’t even cover the 10 Reais transport fare and left us out on the street. Poor service.

The service and location were great, and the simple breakfast was good for the price. The only problem was the mattresses, which weren’t comfortable.

It’s a very cheap place, so keep your expectations modest. The atmosphere is good, and it’s a great spot for meeting friendly people.

I wouldn’t recommend this hostel. There aren’t enough bathrooms, and the kitchen and computers have been removed.
