A hostel with spectacular views, super friendly people and a really beautiful experience

The place is amazing. The hostel has a beautiful energy and the people who work and stay there are super friendly, they make you feel comfortable from the first moment. I really highlight the views, they really are spectacular and make the experience even more special. A very nice place to enjoy and relax.

A good choice in the heart of the city

It is a highly recommended place! It has an exceptional view in one of the most authentic and picturesque neighborhoods of Rio! I mean Santa Teresa, with its cobblestone streets and striking topography, with streets full of identity. In the hostel also highlights that they have a very good service!

Great vibes

Besides walking up "500" stairs this place is amazing. The people are nice. The view was amazing and the rooms are clean. Wifi was also good. They only turn the air on at night but it's really not that bad if you leave the room, plus there is a pool. If there are a lot of people there breakfast is a little small but still nice. I liked the location but if you don't workout (like me) be ready to be out of breath with the stairs and walking back up hill if you go to the stores or restaurants down hill. I felt safe and I will be going back one day!

Great place to start exploring the city.

The hostel is located in a classic neighborhood of Rio de Janeiro and among the best to start exploring the city. In itself the hostel is very good, the atmosphere is relaxed and the staff is friendly. The terrace is a great plus.
