The staff are very friendly

It is far from the nearest street and up a hundred stairs. In the high summer, which is when we were there, it is an expedition into overheating to go in an out. If you have big lugguage like we do, Then you must get creative and a little lucky. They will help you, but you must have a phone and contact worked out.

The ambiance at the hotel was excellent. The attention and care were also very fine. The deck and the view made it into an unforgetable stay.

Because of the Carnival, little bit crowded and couldn't extend the stay.

Facilities muy bien. The view from balcony is spectacular. 10 beds dorm have two private bathrooms with shower and airconditions. Vert comfortable.

Be aware it is a bit of walking up and down steps

Am amazing experience staying in a favela and seeing daily life around you . The host Lavinya is warm, helpful and engaging . Views are amazing from the sitting area. Wifi is good and air con strong.

Everything was excellent if you consider the price and the hostel proposal.

The view is beautiful, the location is one of the best in Rio, it’s easy to move around and the staff is very helpful and really nice

If I have a chance go to Rio, I will like it to search another location and hotel.

The view is perfect . The room is not soundproof at all. Every time someone walks up and down the stairs and passes by the window, the people inside can hear it. At night, guests talk loudly and watch TV outside the living room until 3 am. There is no hot water in the shower room, so I had to boil water to take a shower. It was really an unforgettable experience. The thin white transparent curtains can't block any light at all. At night, the lights from the corridor outside shine in, as bright as day, making it difficult to fall asleep. After checking in, I found that you need to give you an additional 20 Brazilian reals for a thin small bath towel. The unused soap and bath towels are not allowed to be refunded. It is really unexpected and weird.

A lot of steps it was very hard for me. The way you clean the restroom after you make your needs.. I didn't know that the hostel is inside a favela.

The view was incredible The staff was kind.

takes a while to travel anywhere from the hostel. the en-suites kept clogging because people were flushing paper, but they never put up a sign to stop people doing this, and the rooms started to smell. there weren’t enough lockers for everybody. the kitchen was not well stocked (no sharp knives, only tiny plates and no bowls). was more expensive than I normally pay, but maybe because it was carnival

very peaceful and quiet. amazing terrace with beautiful views.

It's not good location for Uber. Difficult to find luckily a kid was walking around the neighborhood and I asked him where it was and he walked me up there. Lots of stairs to walk up and down (like 7/8 flights) including the steps inside the house. When I checked out I had to walk down to the nearest hotel with my heavy backpack on to catch an Uber. Very inconvenient but other than that it's was nice

Beautiful place, decently comfortable beds for a hostel, hot water

I think it would be a good addition to the hostel to add a breakfast as we didn’t want to travel into the favela and the location is a little out of the way. we also thought we shouldn’t need to pay to rent towel’s as we rented the suite. apart from this it was awesome.

The views and the Hostel were awesome even from our room. They had a clean kitchen to cook from on the veranda and I t was good value for money. Even though the rain came in the lady was so helpful to me and my wife in finding food to be delivered. I also left my passport at the property and they contacted me and were very kind and helpful in returning it.
