*5/5 Stars* I'm absolutely thrilled with my stay at this fantastic hostal! The location is unbeatable - just a stone's throw away from the Insurance Market Metro Station. The common room is a great spot to relax, meet fellow travelers, and share stories. The apartment is spacious and comfortable, making it the perfect base for exploring the city. Highly recommend!

I think I am the first one reviewing but here I give me honest thoughts. Location is very good carrying a luggage you just need to walk a minute to enter the building. Host a s super nice she always there to help. Place is new and comfortable. There is common area to sit and gossip with other fellow travelers. I think I would always come here for my future visits.

Liked: Staff & service
It is an avarage hostel made of a regular flat. It is crowded with people from around the world with luggage and personal things all around the space. The hostel lucks some order. Kitchen is overflowing with food and mess. Internet is working but it is somehow limited. A one gets whatbis payed for. No need for high expectations.

Local sem higiene e sem segurança para o hospede. O odor do edifício é horrível, cheiro de peixe podre logo na entrada até o ultimo andar. Todos dias é a mesma coisa. A única vantagem desse lugar é por estar próximo do metrô. Paguei por 6 dias, mas preferi perder 3 diárias do que ter que aguentar por mais tempo. Não recomendo jamais.
