Great Hostel, I wish I had booked more days as I was unable to stay longer as they were full, I will be back later in the month for sure. Russel and Keyko are full of safe info on what and where to go. I especialy liked only 4 to a dorm. See you soon thanks.

This is the best hostel in Salvador, and in my experience, the best I stayed in while in South America. The breakfast is great (fruit pancakes are a speciality!), the tea and coffee in the afternoons are another bonus. It\'s also in a really good area, on a quiet, residential street but a few seconds walk from local restaurants, supermarkets, shopping mall, beach and bars and clubs. It\'s also easy to get into the Pelourinho from here. There\'s also free internet, rooms cleaned daily and a massive DVD library. Above all though, Russell, the proprietor, couldn\'t be more helpful with his advice on what to do in Salvador. I had a great time here and would recommend it to anyone on any budget. Thanks again Russell!

Fantastic hostel, very clean and Russell was a real help about where and where not to go. Would recommend it to anyone and brilliant location. The only slight improvement I would add they have a fantastic bar area but don´t sell any drinks -would make it great place for everyone to socialise.
