Good hostel with friendly staff but bathroom was on the damp side and the sewers caused it to smell a dair bit! We stayed for 4 nights and had to pay for fresh towels which was a bit stingy! carol, from England ~ 19th Oct 2009

Very pleased with our 5 night stay at Art Hostel Rio. The location was good, right next to the metro station and in a vibrant yet safe part of the city. The breakfast was very nice also. The staff however could have been a little more informed about all things Rio, sometimes when we asked them about how to get somewhere they were as clueless as we were, but they were still very friendly.

This hotel is pretty cool...but we had bad luck with our room...a ´´quarto de casal``. It had a hole in the wall (barely patched with wooden plate = mosquitos!), the door didn`t close propelly, the bathroom was stinking (so the room to) and not clean at our arrival. PS: We said this 2X at the reception...without any response. Amelie, from Canada ~ 18th Jul 2009

Hotel staff did little to help out with site-seeing, weren't that friendly; some of the lights in the building didn't work, as well as some of the outlets; our hot water didn't work; our sheets had stains on them; and the breakfast was pretty bad (bees on the food, with the staff not even caring) plus the food was just bad. BUT what can you say, it was cheap and I wasn't planning on hanging out at the hostel anyway... Read Owner Comments Adriel, from USA ~ 21st Apr 2009

Very convenient location - about 1 minute walk to Metro, and about 5-8 minutes before the excellent clean beach. Rooms small but clean, clean every day. Breakfast is delicious. The hotel left a very pleasant experience. Tatiana, from Russia ~ 9th Apr 2009

The staff is very helpful. This is a good hostel experience. Great location near Lapa, short metro/bus ride from Impanema and Copa-Cabana. This hostel is also more a real brazilian experience, different from staying on the beach, but also close to the beaches. Good Expereience! Brandon, from USA ~ 23rd Mar 2009

A few min. walk from the Catete station. Double rooms are OK but small and a bit old. No air-con but fans. No Internet access when we stayed there. Artsy rooms with murals. Juliette, from France ~ 9th Mar 2009
