Liked: Very friendly hostel. Close to everything u need. Transportation, supermarket, the historic center. Loved going to the supermarket and making dinners with everyone including the staff. The hostel is perfect for meeting other travelers. For breakfast they join the tables so everyone sits together. They have a board with what's going on in the city and they all go out together. Highly recommended. It's my second time around.

Liked: Location - 3 min. walk from pelorinho, in a quite residential area. Great local bars near the hostel which are a good spot to watch the local life and make new friends. Staff know about everything going on in the city and will be more than happy to point it out to you and even to take you places you otherwise have no way of discovering. They seem to like what they do and the atmosphere in the hostel is accordingly. Highly recommended.

Disliked: I'm thinking and thinking and can't find a single thing I didn't like

Customer review

12 April 2010 Customer would recommend this property

Liked: The hostel has a good friendly atmosphere. It's just in the old town center, as much turistic as dangerous, but the hostel is safe. The room are comfortable and clean, kitchen and toiltets are quite clean as far as you can expect from Salvador, very old and diry city! The breakfast is really good, every day with a fresh speciality! Two computers 24h available on line. The staff had some problems with my booking because the prices showed in hostelbooking site are different (lower) for those one they show, but at the end I paid according my booking. I definetively recommend this place for the price, the good accomodation and the excellent breakfast.
