The communal shower is also very tight. Overall, budget friendly for backpackers who don't mind a certain degree of discomfort "

I liked how they updated the activities board daily and invited me to events going on that day. I even joined the Caipirinha-making class run by one of the staff, it was so much fun! This is the cleanest hostel I have stayed at, from the bathrooms to the beds to the kitchen, which made my stay extra comfortable. I also really liked how...
