Reviews of Vila Carioca Hostel

Villa Carioca is a nice and relaxing place. Staff at reception is friendly and provides good advices on request. Hotel quite central (though not on the main touristic areas like Copacabana) and very close from metro which allow fast connection to other areas of Rio.
Room quite basic but OK (ours had shared bathroom). The weakness is the cleanliness of the room and more important of the shared bathroom, which is quite poor. Breakfast is OK but not as good as most Poussadas were we stayed in other cities of Brazil.

The staff working at Vila Carioca were great! Most of them speak good English, are very friendly and full of useful information. The hostel is located in a nice, safe neighbourhood with good bus and metro links to other parts of Rio.
The building is quite old and could use a fair bit of maintenance.
