The hostel is located close to the Boa Viagem beach in a side street of one of the main streets. It's an appartment on the 3rd floor of a residential building. The staff is friendly and helpful, there are a lot of spacious rooms and the breakfast is good. The place is quite clean with a couple of common areas.... More

not very easy to find it, as there is no sign in the building. The location is superb, near an excellent beach (boa viagem). Great staff and breakfast. For sure, if I come back to Recife I would stay there again. If you are looking for a cheap, safe, clean, fun and well located hostel, stay here.

Great hostel! Friendly, warm staff. The hostel has a homely feel to it. Would definitely recommend it to anyone visiting Recife. Everything you need from a hostel, fantastic location and good value.

The lockers were in the reception area and the hostel... More

Well-located hostel near Boa Viagem main beach, restaurants, hypermarket and a few bars. But be aware that the staff do not speak English, that the air condition only is on between 21 at night and 7 in the morning (which is not said on their homepage), also it means that if you wanna sleep longer or have an afternoon nap...
