Liked: Party atmosphere and a great place to meet other people. Pretty good kitchen. Great location and WiFi.
Disliked: Too crowded in the dorms, we hade 18 beds in our room even though we booked "max 16 beds". There were too few toilets for all the people staying there.

Liked: I've had a great stay in el misti hostel. It is really easy to meet people there and it has a relaxed atmosphere with good caipirinhas! ;) The lockers are big and spacy and made out of metal - so you can store your luggage safely (if you bring your lock). You receive also a very nice map of Rio.
Disliked: Nothing much actually - the dorms in the ground floor are a bit loud, but that's normal in most hostels where you also want to party and meet people.
