Diamonds shine forever...
My 13 day stay here was nothing short of spectacular! If You are a backpacker that enjoys to keep a distance from all the hustle and bustle of the city, Varandas do Vidigol is Your prayer answered with a Varandas view that maybe the Finest in the World! The Varandas gives anyone such a spectacular view, You start questioning is this a Hostel or the 200th Top Floor to a Luxury Hotel charging $1,000.00 a night?

mudança de valor no check in
não me hospedei,no momento do check in o hostel tentou praticar outro valor,dizendo que o preço estava errado no site e iria cancelar minha reserva,peguei meu dinheiro e fui paa outro hostel, o dono queria levar vantagem e me cobrar o dobro, não recomendo péssimo atendimento e foi praticamente um roubo oque o hostel queria fazer.

Rock in Rio 215
Fui ao Rock in Rio 2015 e me hospedei nesse hostel super aconchegante, pra quem é de fora e não conhece nada do Rio, é um pouco difícil de localizar pois a identificação ainda não é satisfatória. Mas vale muito a pena, pois a receptividade foi maravilhosa e o atendimento muito bom, talvez o café da manhã poderia ser mais variado, mas isso em nada muda a beleza do lugar... Super recomendado

Upeat näköalat
Hostel sijaitsi Vidigal-lähiössä kukkulan rinteellä. Hostelissa oli useita dormeja, jotka olivat perussiistejä ja sängyt olivat hyviä. Yhteinen wc ja suihkuhuone oli myös kohtalaisen siisti. Hostelin aulatila on ulkona terassilla osittain katoksen alla ja sieltä on upeat näköalat Atlantin valtamerelle ja Ipaneman rannalle. Aamiainen oli yksinkertainen, mutta ihan ok. Matka keskustaan hoitui puolessa tunnissa skootteritaxilla (n. euro) ja bussilla (toinen mokoma).
