“Great location but poor room”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 15 March 2013

The hostel is in a great location, very close to the metro and just off the main road. There are lots of shops, supermarkets and restaurants nearby and the beach is 5 minutes away. We have stayed in plenty of hostels so weren't expecting anything flash but our room was a tiny box with a window you couldn't open as... More

“Decent hostel in central location”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 14 November 2012 via mobile

It is a nice hostel and well located if you don't want to be near the beach because the area seems safe and close to Catete metro. Breakfast is a decent buffet but the fruit basket could do with being peeled an chopped. I can't see who would help themselves to a huge pineapple and attempt to chop it up... More
