Unfortunately, unpleasant things have happened. I was locked out of the Hostel for over an hour, the doors did not have any locks for women traveling alone it was a danger. And besides this irresponsibility of leaving a guest outside, they did not give me a refund for the day I did not stay, because I ended up changing hotels because I was afraid.
I like this hostel. The atmosphere is okay and is walking distance of the Gloria Metro station.
Good hostel in a good location. In the heart of Lapa.
Lack of structure
Great value for money
