STAY AWAY - RUN IN FACT!!!!!!!!!!

Any hostel that cannot keep track of reservations should not be in business - surely it's the simpliest part of the job!!! Apart from that the hostel is small and pokie. The owner is a disgrace and only interested in your money instead of your safety so to enjoy a hassle free Rio trip - STAY AWAY!

  • Opinion of Price: more expensive than average

It is still more or less Carnaval time on those dates, so you may have trouble with availability.
The alley that your frind's hostel is on, at #175 Rua Barao de Torre, has a bunch more, all side by side.
Lighthouse casa (house) #20
Rio Ipanema Hostel casa 14
Girl Form Ipanema casa 3
Ipanema Wave casa 5
Also Karisma at #177 R. Barao de Torre
Not too far away are:
Che Largato
Crab Hostel
Ipanema Sun
Hostel Ipanema Beach

Ipanema isn't really such a huge neighborhood that walking from one end to the other would take more than maybe 20 minutes.

Google addresses and use the map(s), with streets labeled, on the www.ipanema.com site to see how close things are.
