Yessica and Sinan were the best! They wwre incredibly friendly and helpful to me when I needed to know information about getting around or finding a pharmacy. The view from the rooftop was very nice. Locker space fit a large suitcase.

Hernan Brazil

Location is great! Right next to the Lapa steps and the viaduct where food vendors were set up at night. Also, just down the street from the main restaurant/bar street in Santa Teresa so we could walk. Easy walk to metro. Very nice for a hostel, rooftop is wonderful and courtyard is great place too. Front desk very nice.
