Great hostel with a wonderful staff. Views are great, activities are numerous, breakfast is tasty… I suppose my only complaint would be that the area can get noisy. There was music all night long … bring earplugs or headphones to drown out the noise.

I really love the Aquarela do Leme hostel and plan to stay there again in the future; however, people should understand that it does get noisy in the neighborhood. On my final evening, the music from the neighborhood went - literally - all night long. Be sure to bring earplugs or headphones that will drown out the noise so that you can get quality sleep.

Strange atmosphere for a hostel!
Breakfast was the highlight each day, great choices. Dorms were okay, but did smell like they were cleaned with dirty water some days. The atmosphere was a bit strange, this is not your usual hostel, it is also a family’s home. Their children would be screaming and shouting and watchingTV in the common area really very loud. Which means hostel guests could not relax there. The children seemed to do what they want. When you first arrive you don’t receive much information, like where is the terrace, there is a gym on the roof, they offer a washing service, what time is breakfast etc. it is also essential to be added to the WhatsApp group so that you don’t miss information. Volunteers were lovely but there is a high turnover rate - this also impacts the atmosphere. The location is great, be prepared it is within a favella at the very top of a very big hill but the environment around the hostel is great and Leme itself is a lovely part of Rio

Privada entupida. Chuveiro entupido e caiam 2 gotas de água. Café da manhã sujo e quase sem variedade. Funcionárias da limpeza maravilhosas, os demais não davam nem bom dia…

Otima escolha
Lugar incrível. A limpeza do quarto é diária, a cabine super reservada, o que aumenta ainda mais o conforto. Todos os atendentes são muito gentis, tive mais contato com estrangeiro do que com brasileiro no hostel. Praticamente um intercambio dentro do Brasil. Amei amei amei. Ambiente super limpo, organizado, café da manhã caprichado.

Agréable séjour à Rio
Avons passé deux nuits dans la posada. L’accueil fut très chaleureux, l’enregistrement rapide et étant venu très tôt le matin nous avons pu laisser nos bagages.la Posada est très propre et située sur une colline offrant une belle vue. La chambre double est très agréable,le petit déjeuner est correct.nous avons été très bien conseillé par Thibaut, un français propriétaire de l’auberge et qui nous a procuré des billets pour aller au Maracana. Nous recommandons cette Posada.

Bom hostel
É um hostel , fica na ladeira duque dá acesso ao morro da Babilônia. Hostel tem 4 andares e não tem elevador. Então se tu tem dificuldade com escada e não gosta de andar/ subir e descer ladeira não recomendo. A cama é confortável, ar condicionado é ligado TDS os dias as 22hs e desligado as 10hs. Tem uma cozinha coletiva com fogão, geladeira, microondas, panelas...etc...assim você hospede tem a facilidade de comprar sua comida em algum mercado e preparar. Equipe atenciosa. Na cobertura tem uma bela vista da praia do leme, morro da urca, e Copacabana. Bastante estrangeiros frequentam a acomodação. Hostel oferece café da manhã ( Basico , porém, suficiente) para o desjejum. Diariamente tem passeios oferecidos $$$ para os hóspedes e também possui um bar. O ambiente interno é tranquilo . Banheiro é compartilhado. Quartos com 8 camas. Cada cama tem sua tomada de energia e ponto* de luz.
