In brief

What works, what to weigh

+

Strengths

3 reasons to book
  • Outdoor pool and leisure facilities — The hostel has an outdoor swimming pool and is close to a golf course, making it easy to relax without travelling far.
  • Free on-site parking — A free car park is available, a practical perk in a city where parking can be tricky.
  • Well-equipped kitchen and living areas — Amenities include a washing machine, cookware, tea and coffee facilities, and an outdoor dining area – ideal for longer stays.

Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Limited room types — Only two dormitory styles are listed – one female-only, one male-only – so private rooms are not available.
  • Restricted check-in window — Check-in is only between 14:00 and 22:30, which may be inconvenient for late arrivals.
  • No pets allowed — If you're travelling with a pet, this hostel won't accommodate them.
  • Distance from main attractions — The description notes a 40-minute drive to Tijuca National Park, so you’ll need transport to reach the city's more famous sights.
