My stay at El Misti was superb!! I stayed in a private room during 7-13 November. It was my first time in Rio, and this was the perfect place to meet people!! They organise lots of events, and having easy access to the beach with a ticket for a free chair is an addes bonus! I can definitely recommend El Misti to others, and will likely stay here (or at least visit the amazing bar during happy hour!!) when I return, muito obrigado El Misti!! Tom

Pros: Amazing staff at this property! Very friendly and always up for some fun! Also they all speak some level of English which was nice. It’s more of a party hostel than a chill and work hostel. Also they have a bar and restaurant attached to the property which is convenient. The area is awesome. Ipanema seems to attract young and friendly folks from all over. Cons: the shower had zero water pressure, the restaurant isn’t always open and some of the other guests don’t respect specific quiet time which they have posted outside the rooms. All in all I would DEFINITELY come back for a party or two.

Good location, clean with reasonable price.

Overall, stay was good. The hostel is easy to find, a few minutes away from Ipanema beach. It is near to a lot of shops, restaurants and a market. There were cleaning ladies almost everyday yo clean the room. I liked the big drawers under the bed that can actually fit a check-in size luggage of 23kg, and you can lock it. The only downside is that the all-female room is next to the street so expect noise from vehicles and people who party all night. Also, there is no switch for the AC and you have to call reception to turn it on which is annoying because it gets really hot and humid in the middle of the night.

not what we understood when we booked

This listing is misleading because it said private bathroom. There was nothing about the listing that said it was one set of bunk beds in a room of lots of bunk beds. Please know that you may book thinking you have your own private room and bathroom, even though it says "private bathroom," but really it is private for 12 people/12 bunk beds. We needed a quick shower post-beach and before our flight, and there was a dude in the bathroom. Also, there are no towels. And you have to keep pushing the water on and there is only one temperature...it times out. Good for the environment for sure. Staff was pretty snarky and unhelpful. Make sure you have a lot of time on your hands. The lady at the counter said someone would show us our room after she helped a bunch of people...we didn't have this kind of time to wait around...especially since we would shortly discover there was someone in our "private" bathroom already using the shower.

Good location to be near Ipanema beach during the day. Not a bad social vibe. Not impressed by lack of water filter (you have to buy bottled water at the hostel). Booking agency also very expensive - charged 25% more for a transfer to Ilha Grande than almost all companies charge. Rooms are decent, but it's not hard to find better hostels in Rio with better vibes that charge similar prices and include breakfast/water.

Overall Stay

Great atmosphere and nice staff. The shared dorms were a very basic. Bathrooms in dorms were cleaned daily. The downside of the rooms was humidity. They fans in the room to help keep an air flow. Windows kept open didn't help since it was humid outside. Sheets were always damp. We stayed Mon-Sat and never had our sheets replaced and they smelled of mildew. The AC was only turned on certain hours of the day which was a bummer if you wanted to sleep past 8am. Lockers were nice and spacious for luggage. They offer free luggage storage after check out. The main hang out area needs more love and comfort. All chairs are wooden fold out, so it makes it hard to get out of the room and lounge like most hostels have. Wifi worked really well. Give 1 free drink each evening at the bar, nice touch! Breakfast option was delicious - good fruits, breads, drinks. Overall it is a hostel so it will not be perfect. I have much experience in various hostels in Rio and it isn't the worst, but not the best.
