Não recomendo o hostel com as condições acima

Cobra aluguel de cobertas R$ 20 reais, toalhas no valor de 20 reais, café da manhã 25 reais, achei bem chata essa situação e passei frio na madrugada, já que o ar condicionado é ligado e o hóspede não tem acesso ao controle para regular a temperatura. Minha sugestão é procurar um hotel, paguei numa diária na Barra R$ 95 reais (conforto, vista, café / almoço, quarto privativo e 110 o casal ) .

Boa estadia!

A localização é perfeita e as acomodações são ok, normal para um Hostel. Achei um local seguro e gostei bastante do pessoal que trabalha. O café da manhã é pago por fora e não compensa tanto, talvez seja melhor ir em algum comércio próximo.
