I had a tiny private room with an even tinier bathroom. Had I known how small and bare bones my accommodation would be I probably wouldn't have selected it for a 5 day stay. However, it was clean and within walking distance of the beach and other landmarks.

Be aware this hostel is closing the kitchen at 10pm. I don't undestand tulejki is that to be honest as the kitchen area is at the ground floor where there is no dormitories. Also the internet at the ground floor is very poor and has lags. The staff is aware of this but they never do anything about it.

2/10 Poor

Look elsewhere.

Absolutely not worth the money for a private room. No towels!! They don't give you a towel, you have to BUY one! Spent 5 days drying myself with a sheet! Lifted up the toilet seat and a pubic hair from the previous occupant greeted me. Bed not very comfortable, and needed the agility of spiderman to scale the awkwardly positioned ladder to get into it. Every morning on the climb down I felt like I was descending into the abyss! Room was as noisy as a dorm, in the landing and beside the bathroom, and breakfast was poor, flies on the fruit, no cover for it, and some insects crawling around the cups, milk ran out at 930 as well as the ham and cheese and that was it, no more put out, and they charge for this! Also, twice was told that breakfast wasn't included and twice had to show them my booking on hotels to show that it was. Housekeeping come daily but just to empty the toilet bin. Communal areas not great for meeting people and no activites or tours that I saw or was told about, so not much vibe. If you want a private room pay more for someplace else.

Para quem busca boa localização com baixo preço

Ótima localização, tem tudo perto, farmácias, restaurantes, mercados, feira, metrô. Café da manhã é bom, porém o local realmente é para quem vai aberto a abrir mão de certas comidades como por exemplo: tamanho de quarto privativo e banheiro. Limpeza até existe, mas não é 100%, não tem elevador e a escada é estreita, se tem alguma dificuldade com isso nem tente. Atendimento é bom. Indico para quem não tem frescuras

Terrível, quarto que parece uma prisão , não tem ventilação , quarto com morfo. Qualquer cheiro na cozinha entra todo no quarto. Cama no alto que não dá nem pra subir na escada. Escada super estreita. NÃO RECOMENDO NEM PARA O MEU INIMIGO.

O lugar é bom de boa localização é ótimo custo benefício! Mas é importante melhorar atendimento principalmente das moças da limpeza que são mt mal educadas e grossas. O Luís é boa pessoa mas tá sempre mal informado sobre estadia pagamentos e é meio grosso. Alguns funcionários novos precisam se informar mais tb e ter mais simpatia.precisa melhorar tb na manutenção dos quartos. Da última vez o chuveiro tava queimado e faltava tomada nas camas. Além de armários quebrados. Pq no mais o ambiente e agradável. Sugiro free tour e atividades de entretenimento dentro do hostel como caipirinha free pra juntar a galera. Isso além de trazer mais turistas tb faz a gente se sentir seguro e fazer boas amizades.

Excelente localização, perto do metrô e da praia!! Café da manhã é básico, mas é o suficiente. A única parte que não gostei, foi o banheiro da suíte privativa, muito pequeno, não dá p mexer dentro do mesmo, mas tirando isso!! Ótima estadia. Pessoal incrível!!!

Ótima localização e excelente limpeza.

O hostel tem uma localização privilegiada, a menos de 100 metros da Praia de Copacabana, em apenas 5 minutos de caminhada, você já está na areia, a limpeza é impecável, com equipe fazendo a manutenção do local pela manhã, tarde e noite, os funcionários são extremamente educados e prestativos, sempre prontos para ajudar no que for possível. As camas (beliches) são muito confortáveis, e o ambiente transmite segurança graças às boas medidas adotadas pelo hostel, além disso, o espaço é bem equipado, com cozinha, ar-condicionado e outras comodidades essenciais. O único ponto negativo foi o ar-condicionado: ele só funciona das 20h às 9h, e no restante do tempo o calor dentro dos quartos é insuportável, tornando difícil permanecer neles, se não fosse por esse detalhe, a experiência teria sido perfeita.

Ja havia me hospedado no Che Copa ha uns anos atras e estava tudo muito limpo e organizado. Dessa vez me decepcionou bastante. O meu banheiro estava mal limpo, tapete sujo e manchado. Um cano passando no meio do banheiro e a janela sempre aberta, alem de muito barulho durante a madrugada (aonde os funcionarios do hotel deveriam pedir para que os hospedes fizessem silencio.

Bom mas precisa organizar camas e funcionários

O hostel é mt bom. Boa localização e ótimo custo benefício, porém tem algumas coisas que precisam melhorar nos funcionários e organização. Já é a 3 vez que tenho problemas em encontrar qual a cama que vou dormir. Em duas delas já aconteceu de eu chegar e ter outra pessoa dormindo na cama que eu arrumei e que tem meus pertences. Em todas elas chamei o recepcionista até o quarto e ele me mostrou a cama vazia e mesmo assim ela estava errada. Isso é um absurdo! A primeira vez tinha lençol em todas as camas e pertences. Chamei o recepcionista pra me mostrar e demorou pra ele saber qual era a cama. E mesmo assim nao tinha certeza pedindo pra qualquer coisa se chegasse alguem chamar. Ou seja, eles permitem a pessoa ir embora e não tirar os lençóis da cama. Não têm controle algum. Na segunda vez foi pior.. Cheguei fiz o checkin me informei sobre qual a cama poderia ficar e fui dar uma volta na rua em festas. Voltei no dia amanhecendo. Quando cheguei alguém tinha dormido na minha cama, como se não bastasse comeram mexerica e deixou cascas e tudo la em cima sem contar que tinhas alguns pertences dessa pessoa e mais uma vez. Agora dessa última e terceira vez que aconteceu tive duvida e me informei com o recepcionista sai e voltei tinha uma moça dormindo na cama. Ela disse que tinha aumentado estadia e não a mudaram de quarto. mas minha cama era la. não tem controle, tem que colocar numeração no hospede da cama que vai ficar. o recepcionista do outro dia me mostrou a numeração.
