Vidigal Varandas Hostel

“PÉSSIMA HOSPEDAGEM”

Nothing positive. This is the fourth and final time I stay at Varandas; it used to be the hostel I most recommended for its comfort, quality, and value, but now it’s the worst option for me in every way. The volunteers are terrible and unwilling to help at all, the monthly residents treat the space as their home and act however they wish, and visitors come and go without the staff even knowing who they are. The environment is dirty and neglected, the beds are broken and unstable, the bathrooms are filthy, the fridge is dirty, and the linens are poorly washed with a bad smell. The monthly residents were a huge disappointment and it was extremely uncomfortable dealing with people who slept all day and stayed in the lounge watching TV at an unnecessary volume until 6:00 am. Apart from the good location, it’s a terrible choice for anyone looking for even minimal comfort.

“Não vão”

Only the view. Completely dirty, with ingrained grime, not suitable for eating inside, even the bathroom for men and women requires going down floors to use it, no bath towels as advertised, and the smell of filth and urine permeates everything.

“Muito rolê!”

Only the view was good. The location was bad.

“Precisa de mais limpeza e organização, colchão mofado e com pelos de gato, travesseiros mofados, cama mole, precisa melh”

The view was nice. There was no cleaning, no organization.

It’s close to the Dois Irmãos hill trail and the staff are friendly. The private room had a clogged sink drain and the bed linens were dirty.
