I arrived early in the morning. The staff allowed me to leave my bags in Reception. I joined the WhatsApp group for the hostel & I managed to get on a tour for 9am! I booked all my tours via that WhatsApp group (managed by Ana who's quick at responding & is so nice!). It's so much cheaper to book tours on here than online.
I went on 4 tours & each tour guide were professional & spoke both Portuguese & English (Spanish in one of the tours) & were very knowledgeable.
The hostel it self, is brilliant. Believe the reviews. It is a tad up hill, either take your time walking up or use the motorbike service (R$5 /£0.71). I was nervous initially, but honestly, they're really professional & safe. So safe, that I used the service to get to Maracena so I didn't miss the football game!
The hostel is brilliant. It's in a safe location. The surrounding neighbours don't make you feel uncomfortable.
I booked a private room. Bed was soft, room was spacious, shower is brilliant (wait 5 mins for the hot water to turn on) & I had a good view from the balcony.
Staff here really are lovely. They go out of their way to ensure you have a good stay. An example, is where I tried to check in to a domestic flight but it was in Portuguese. Tomas helped me complete the details.
If there's a message on WhatsApp about Tapioca - do not miss this! I think it was Adriel that made this on the rooftop bar.
Also through WhatsApp, they arrange events in the evening.
This is the longest review I've ever written. I loved Rio & the hostel more than I thought I would.

All the staff were really helpful and friendly, a nice small hostel making it easy to talk to people, and good location about 10 minutes from the beach. It’s also right next to a metro station so lots of transport options. Had a decent buffet breakfast included, loved the individual toilet & showers, and good size lockers under the beds.

gostei da localização e da flexibilidade!! Gean um ótimo anfitriã
Oh well, in my opinion, this is really a hardcore backpackers hostel and not necessarily for more mature travelers looking for a decent but affordable accommodation but here are the details.
Good:
refrigerator in the room
desk in the room
very good internet
good lighting
safe area and safe place
This was one of the best hostels l have ever stayed at because it felt like real home. The place is clean and beautiful with many art images around and feels safe. The manager of hostel is very kind and it’s a great atmosphere all around. The location is good, you need walk uphill for few minutes but for me that was not an issue. l can recommend if you are looking for a hostel with character that feels like being at home.
The location is perfect and in a safe area, so it‘s a good place to explore Rio. The hostel has a bar, where you can hang out, meet new people and have some drinks, between 20:00 - 20:30 there‘s free caipirinhas all you can drink, in combination with party vibes, so it‘s good pre-gaming. Staff is super helpful, Tai is an angel, you can always ask for recommendations. Also, everyday they organize events that one can join.
Great location in Botafogo, close to metro line and felt safe as a solo traveler. Cute breakfast with fresh cakes every day, nice outdoor area. The 2 cats of the hostel are very nice and social! The WiFi worked very well. The kitchen is great, clean and very organised, it was probably my favourite part!
Beautiful hostel, very clean. Terrasse on rooftop. Very social vibes. Well organised. In a safe area of rio and next to copacabana. One of the best hostels I have stayed in!
I had an emergency situation that made me change my booking and the owner Thibeau was very comprehensive and helped me a lot to sort everything out.
Thank you so much! I wish I could have stayed longer
The best hostel I stayed in in Rio! The staff is super amazing, always ready to help and super friendly (special thanks to Davi who saved me in so many situations). There is AC but the temperature can be adapted, so that you don't need to freeze to death like in so many other Rio hostels, also very good daily cleaning. There is also a common area to chill and meet people and the hostel is located in a safe area, close to the beach, restaurants and supermarkets.
Great location, 10-15 min walk from Copacabana beach and near to cafes, supermarket and shops. Hostel is on a quiet street and felt safe to walk around area.
It is important to put the whole review in the context of the New Year's party.
The whole copacabana is exorbitantly expensive, so the prices for the two-bed rooms here were at a level where you can sometimes go to a 5* hotel in europe.
Accordingly, it was disappointing to sleep on plasticised beds and plasticised pillows.
All in all, however, it is a very nice hostel, in a great location, safe and with lots of activities.
