Abenteuerliche Lage

Das Hostel liegt am Eingang zu einer Favela. Man fühlt sich zwar nicht komplett unsicher, jedoch sieht man viel Armut in der Ecke des Copacabana. Wir hatten ein Doppelzimmer, mit Ablagemöglichkeiten, Klimaanlage und Badezimmer. Leider hat die Klospülung schlecht funktioniert und entgegen des Versprechens kam keiner um diese zu reparieren. Beim Frühstück stand zwar auf der Seite, dass dieser inklusive wäre, dem ist aber nicht so. Es lohnt sich mehr sich selbst zu versorgen. Zum Glück hat man die Möglichkeit dazu, Dank der Gemeinschaftsküche. Einige vom Personal waren zuvorkommend, andere weniger. Einer wollte uns mit dem Preis für Taxi abziehen, indem er 30 R$ mehr verlangt hat. Gepäckaufbewahrung nach dem Auschecken kostet 5 R$ pro Tag pro Tasche. Für den Preis in der Karnevalszeit war es jedoch eine vergleichbar günstige Unterkunft.

You should know

  • At check-in, parents or a legal guardian travelling with children under 18 years old are obligated to present the child's birth certificate and an identity card with a photo (for example, a passport). For international travels to Brazil, if only one of the parents is travelling with the child, the parent must present – in addition to the child's certificate of birth and identity card with photo – a letter authorising the trip signed by the other parent with a notarial certification of signature. If the parents or the legal guardian, as applicable, cannot or are unwilling to give this authorisation, a judicial authorisation is required. People intending to travel to Brazil with children must consult with the Brazilian consulate prior to travelling for more information.
  • Certain facilities might have restricted access. For details, you can contact the property at the number on the booking confirmation.
