Great Place. I stayed here twice. The first time in a twin room for 4 night then returning for 2 nights in a triple room. Staff is very helpful and friendly. They were very helpful w/ my lost luggage problem. Location is great. Near metro and many of the main areas. Breakfast was also included...

Com certeza eu e minha namorada retornariamos a esse hostel. Ótima localizacao, limpo, café da manha completo e staff extremamente atencioso e prestativo. O único problema sao as paredes finas demais. Ouve-se quase tudo que se passa no quarto ao lado.

Please be aware that there is no lift at this hostel and its on the top two floors of 4 storey house. The Royal is in a mutually beneficial arrangement with the hostel above them, so you may not stay there if you book through hostelworld, but you can come and go as you please between the two Pensaos, seems wierd, but works!close
