The location, look and people of the hostel were amazing. The beds have enough privacy and the facilities are clean. After the first day here we immediately booked some more nights as did most of the other people. Met some great people and had one of the best weeks of adventure in a beautiful city, highly recommend :)

Set on a historical building with spacious interiors, this hotel offers rooms with a ceiling fan, lockers and a shared bathroom. Some feature a private bathroom with shower.

Guests can enjoy refreshing drinks at the Taverna Saint Roman Bar, and have lunch in the dining area. There are several restaurants and bars nearby Pura Vida Hostel. I loved the location, close to both Copacabana and Ipanema, surrounded by great restaurants, markets, stores, exchange offices, everything you need. The activities at the hostel were always fun, the bartenders were awesome, and the dance teacher Camilo was amazing. Special shout-out to their tour guide Lari, who organized incredible free tours, always shared great information, took amazing photos, and even taught some Portuguese for free. I highly recommend staying here!
