My stay at El Misti was superb!! I stayed in a private room during 7-13 November. It was my first time in Rio, and this was the perfect place to meet people!! They organise lots of events, and having easy access to the beach with a ticket for a free chair is an addes bonus! I can definitely recommend El Misti to others, and will likely stay here (or at least visit the amazing bar during happy hour!!) when I return, muito obrigado El Misti!! Tom

Pros: Amazing staff at this property! Very friendly and always up for some fun! Also they all speak some level of English which was nice. It’s more of a party hostel than a chill and work hostel. Also they have a bar and restaurant attached to the property which is convenient. The area is awesome. Ipanema seems to attract young and friendly folks from all over. Cons: the shower had zero water pressure, the restaurant isn’t always open and some of the other guests don’t respect specific quiet time which they have posted outside the rooms. All in all I would DEFINITELY come back for a party or two.

Estadia boa, mas precisa de alguns ajustes

O atendimento da recepção é incrível, são educados e super animados. Eles fazem a diferença. O Eric e as meninas são muito queridos e prestativos. Mas o atendimento do bar precisa melhorar e muito! O atendimento não é legal, pedi um suco para um dos meninos que trabalha no bar e ele simplesmente ignorou o meu pedido. Estou até agora esperando o suco!

Todo muy bien para ser un hostal, cambiaría el tema de la ducha por tiempo y el hecho de que las camas puedan ser un poco mejores, ya que son algo delgadas y descansar se vuelve todo un reto. Si tu objetivo es conocer gente y estar en una buena zona, es la opción indicada, si es descansar y pasar un rato tranquilo, no lo es.

O barulho do bar chegava até o quarto. Como havia 12 camas no mesmo espaço, o banheiro de dentro do quarto tinha algumas poças d‘água no chão e o tapete estava encharcado. Os funcionários são atenciosos. Vá apenas se vc gosta de party hostel.

Ótimo!

Ambiente jovial, alto astral e muito agitado. Quem gosta de fazer amizades, esse é o lugar. Fiquei no quarto misto e apesar de ter 9 pessoas que nunca se viram na vida, todos foram respeitosos e interagiam muito bem. Muitos gringos de todos os lugares do mundo. Limpeza impecável. Localização excelente à uma quadra da praia. Um ponto a melhorar seria beliches mais altos, tenho 1,55 de altura e não conseguia sentar na cama sem bater a cabeça na cama de cima.
