Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Lennon and the rest of the staff were great. The hostel is in Leme, close to Copocabana, but has some limited transportation. The hostel itself was well maintained, and the other guests were enjoyable to spend time with. Overall I recommend this Hostel

Estoy muh molesto con este lugar, llegué al lugar y me dí cuenta que estaba al lado de una favela , cosa que no mencionan en la pagina! No me quedé ningún dia en el hostal porque me preocupó mi seguridad y nisiquiera me dieron oportunidad de poder cancelar o recuperar parte del dinero siquiera
