Liked: Hostel owner Russell was very friendly and helpful with tips on the area, often joining us during brekfast and various times for a chat. He totally looks after his guests. The staff keep the place ticking along smoothly, the whole place is very clean and neat - homely. it also seems to attract very amiable guests - everyone I met there was sweet. This is not a party house (thank god) but its definately a place you can sit back casually and chat with the others with a couple of drinks. Thanks Russell and Keiko! Cheers, Mick.

29 January 2008 Customer would recommend this property

Liked: The owners were helpful and the breakfast offered was really good. The guesthouse was very clean and was in a pretty good location in Barra. The only down side to this guesthouse was the old fasion shower where the water is either too warm or too cold. But apart from that, our stay was really enjoyable.

Nikolas Kelaiditis

28 January 2008 Nikolas would recommend this property

Liked: Excellent hostel, very clean and well-managed. Good location in Barra (the neighborhood of choice for your stay in Salvador) right next to the shopping center and nightlife. Nice breakfast, they even cook pancakes for you according to your liking. But the most outstanding aspect though are the owners, Russell and Keiko, who went to great lengths to make our stay comfortable, much more than we could have ever expected or than I have ever experienced at a hostel.
