Horrível

Fujam desse Hostel!!!!! Reservei um quarto um pouco melhor e ao chegar no Hostel o gerente Pedro me informou que os quartos estavam em “reforma “ e que que faria um downgrade!!! Pela lei isso não é possível , aceitei pois estava cansado da viagem e seriam apenas dois dias no Hostel . Solicitei um locker e pasmem, eles cobram por um cadeado xexelento o valor de R$ 25,00. Em outros Hostels , o cadeado é brinde . Já venham preparados para serem cobrados por tudo que forem usar . Wi-Fi é um lixo , fica caindo o sinal nos quartos. Tudo aqui você paga !!! Rede móvel não funciona dentro do Hostel . Tomadas das camas o adaptador do carregador não funciona, tem que achar um jeito de encaixar certo e deixar lá se não o telefone não carrega . Ar condicionado não gela o suficiente, quartos abafados e com pernilongos. Café da manhã cobrado e não é tudo aquilo não. Por R$ 25,00 é possível tomar um café bom nas proximidades do Hostel Galera gringa que se hospeda no Hostel , sem senso de comunidade. Chegam de madrugada falando alto, rindo e não se importam com o barulho que eles fazem . Não recomendo esse Hostel pela péssima experiência que passei fazendo “downgrade”.

Foi bom mas podia ser melhor…

O espaço e o conforto que o hostel oferece deixa a desejar. A piscina tava muito suja, inutilizável, o sofá da sala de TV com almofadas sujas, faz falta um filtro de água na cozinha compartilhada. A internet é bem ruim. Perderam o cartão do meu quarto e tive que ficar com a porta destravada por 2 dias, ninguém se propôs a solucionar. Não poder escolher a cama (baixo/cima) com antecedência também não ajuda a ter uma boa primeira impressão. O pessoal do staff a maior parte do tempo parece perdidos em como executar os processos, mas são pessoas incríveis, todos são muito educados, engraçados, e fazem o que pode para resolver os perrengues. Destaco a qualidade dos serviços do Ítalo, Willian, Ju (limpeza), Enrique (loketa) e Felipe. A limpeza dos quartos e banheiros é feita diariamente em uma boa frequência. O free tour é um diferencial positivo. Apesar das ponderações eu indicaria ou voltaria por dois fatores: localização e staff.

Amazing staff! It was my first time in Brazil and I was travelling alone, I did not know what to expect. It was an unforgettable experience. On their time off, they showed me around and gave me ideas on where to go. I felt welcomed the minute I walked in. The location is perfect! Close to the beaches , supermarkets and metro station. There’s a pool, a bar area ,kitchen. The rooms are air-conditioned. Breakfast is not included but is a fair price !Definitely recommend this hostel!
