Fun and good location. Lots of restaurants, bars and stores around. The hostel has a good bar and restaurant. Also turns to a club at Saturday night with a live band playing Forro music! I love it! The staff Antonela is the best!!! She was so friendly and patient to answer all our questions and gave us suggestions about tours and places to go! she is really fun, helpful and amazing!

Bathroom could use some attention. Door knobs broken, one shower has no door the other one has a broken door that doesn’t close. So I just hoped nobody come in when I was showering, and it didn’t really bother me. But there are many other bathrooms and showers outside of the room to use.

Great location, comfortable dorm bed, has 2 small kitchens you can use and a restaurant - the Argentinian empanadas were absolutely delicious.

kitchen wasn’t fully equipped, showers kinda dirty but we just wore flip flops, the bathroom near us had to sit on it sideways as the door is so close to your knees lol. We think many people come here for a holiday to escape other parts of Brazil, everyone we met here and in our room were form Brazil, meaning they were partying every night and waking us up when they came in, but for a dorm I guess it’s normal to experience this

I saw 1-2 staff working very hard every morning to do cleaning. They washed the bins from the toilet inside out. Also every corner of the public area. The bathrooms were normally very clean. Shower very strong. I had a live band playing next to me while I was taking a shower.

Everyone spoke German. Aircon inside the bedroom was not on until very late. Very hot. When a lot of backpackers, there were backpacks and stuff all over the floor inside the bedroom. Obviously not enough storage for guests. There was only a small rack for drying wet clothes. How can they expect an island with so many beaches guests don't have any swimming wear and towels to dry? No where to even dry my tiny little bikinis.

Incredibly friendly staff who were patient with my Spanish. I was the only guest in the entire hostel, and still they laid out a generous breakfast for me, and provided coffee in the evening. It's central, comfy, and spacious (I stayed in the double room).

Some of the prices at the bar were a bit steep, I thought.

Good price. Private Room is good. Nice forest view. Location is convenient 5 minutes walk to the jetty 1 minute from shops. Kitchen to use with fridge, pots, boiler … They have Lonely Planet.

Loud music almost everyday until midnight from the bar. Mosqitoes.

Hostel room with private bathroom, Nice big room with space. Hostel is in great location, and lots of space to chill outside of the room. Awesome helpful friendly staff, with multiple lauanges.

This is one of those rare gems that looks better than the photos! Mainly female staff were so friendly and happy to answer questions. Stayed in the 4 bed girls dorm at the front - if you plan on early nights then maybe not the best choice for you, but once music stops around 11pm, I passed out in the comfy bed. You'll need to sleep with the air con on and grab a fleecy blanket. Shared bathroom was really clean. In fact, the whole place was truly clean. Free welcome drink, also just a really welcoming space. I was pleased to turn up here. Wi fi was good enough to make a whatsapp call back to England for a long chat. Felt very safe walking back late at night, it's right in the middle of everything on the main track through the island but away from the drag of busier restaurants. If you're alone and wary, thought there are many lovely places to stay tucked away up alleyways in the direction of the mountains, this is a better option given its proximity to everything and ease of getting to :)

Did have a slight issue with lack of hot water but travelling through Brazil, I think what us English call hot water is hard to come by!

I had a food poisoning on the day of my check-put. I spent the day lying on the sofa in the common area. Rooms were clean. the kitchen had all the basic stuff. big lockers

they put ac on at 10pm so the floor in the rooms doesn't dry before that

I stayed in the girl's dorm, really nice and spacious!

The glass door to the room leads straight to the loud bar so dont hope for an early rest; Breakfast is poor, almost non existent, dirty silverware and mugs; Staff barely speaks portuguese eventhough they are in brazil

The staff is friendly and helpful. The hostel has a nice vibe and sometimes they organise cool evenings with live music. The rooms were also spacious and clean. The hostel can furthermore help you with tours and transfers from and to Rio de Janeiro which was quite convenient.

The beds were comfy but moved a lot and where sometimes really close to each other in the case of bed bunks.
