Books Hostel

Avaliação: 5
Michael Doherty: I was in books hostel for 10 days and the staff and volunteers were absolutely incredible and great at organizing days out for the guests. The breakfast was delicious and of course Andre the manager was amazing! I'd highly recommend anyone going to Rio to stay in the great social hostel!

Jasmina Orlowska: The atmosphere was very nice. But the hostel overall was EXTREMELY DIRTY (no matress covers, mold in bathrooms, bed bugs in some of the rooms, the bathrooms smelled like vomit). Even though the people and atmosphere was amazing, the hostel's cleanliness was too poor to rate the stay above 3 stars.

James: This was the first hostel I stayed at in this off season trip that had a true party atmosphere, so if that's your thing, you'll love it. I love the Whatsapp group where you can find out where folks are partying. Bear in mind though that downstairs they start bumping very loud music at like 7pm. I also appreciated: - filtered water (though it's quite slow) - the breakfast was really nice, and there's an option to get it anyway even if you're not staying there for R15, AND it goes until 10:30am A slight deduction because the lockers don't actually work lol... you can lock it and still open it (room #6). I also wish the door to the room itself had a key/lock. And even though they do offer bag storage, there's no verification of any kind, and I definitely was able to grab my bag to leave without anyone at the front desk noticing... maybe there are cameras, but I could've been out that door before anyone cared. I appreciate that most hostels operate to some degree on an open trust basis, but given that they have 24/7 door staff anyway, would be nice to have a back room only accessible by then. Lastly, you don't get a key to the hostel, you have to buzz, but the buzzer is quite loud, so if you're a light sleeper, this could be a problem... but so might the trucks rolling up and down the street

Alexandre Sirois-De Civita: What an amazing experience to stay at this hostel! Stayed for 7 days and made my Rio experience so good! Always updated on activities in the city as they are sooo many in Rio. Super social hostel, with friendly volunteers, drinking games every night. Also the owner is often around and he is very nice, thoughtful and helpful. Just book the hostel and have fun!

Tajda: This is a party hostel yall. I was so excited to relax after long day at the beach. And the music right under my room started. But the free breakfast there was amazing.
