    The lamp didn't work in my room, but I forgot to mention it. I'm sure they would have changed it if I'd asked.

    The staff were really friendly and helpful. They helped us to organise local tours. The room was clean and functional and the breakfast was varied and filling. Great place to stay. Very sociable and a brilliant location just outside the pedestrian zone

    The location was lovely. It was close to the beach and the old town, and also the busstation. I needed to wash some laundry, and the laundryplace was very close, and they offered to bring the clean laundry to the reception of Che Lagarto. Also superspecial thanks to the staff. The were incredibly friendly and helpful. I had an accident; I left my belowed sleepingmask, which I had had since i was 11 years old, at the hostel. I was so sad to lose it. But when I texted the hostel, they told me they had found it and I told them that i desperately would want it back. A few days later, as I was getting back to So Paolo to leave back to home, my bus stopped at the Paraty busstation, and a friend of a staffmember of the hostel was waiting for me at the busstation, and gave me my mask. The communication happenedf through the person working at the hotel, and the friendliness and the good communication was so touching to me <3

    Good overall but rooms a little dated, beds were hard and tv couldn't be used for English speakers. One tiny bottle of shampoo for 2 people for 2 nights. Pool is smaller than looks in pictures.

    Great hostel, excellent location. Close to the bus station and a lovely cafe Manue around the corner and the historic centre. Staff were really helpful, nothing was an issue. Shared spaces were nice.

    We took a private room with two separate beds. It was noisy during the night due to the ventilation system.

    Friendly atmosphere, cosy and clean place.

    The room was basic but comfortable, the small pool was lovely, the kitchen well equipped with a clean common area. The boat trips offered on the boat owned by the hostel also looked good and we were very competitively priced, however we didn't get chance to go on one.

    The kitchen and pool were tiny and the ac was loud but they all do the job. Would stay again. The only real problem was the snorkelling tour we booked through them have enough masks for everyone and not a single snorkel! Of course this is an external company but you'd think they would have better contacts than this.

    Really friendly and helpful staff. Convenient location. Cute design and a nice atmosphere.

    Bedroom and bathroom were tight but ok- it is a hostal not a hotel! There wasn't anywhere comfortable to sit. There were only 2 hammocks and 2 poolside loungers, but a lot of guests.

    Staff were very friendly and spoke good English, which was helpful. Location was excellent, close to the bus terminal and the historic centre.

    The wifi was awful, and wouldn’t connect most of the time. We did mention this & they reset it but overall the wifi wouldn’t stay connected & struggled to reconnect. Kitchen is very small & missing some basic utensils. Good enough to cook eggs & pasta but only 1 person can cook at a time Also, when we were there it wasn’t very social

    Location was great, staff were very friendly and helpful. Private room was a good size & shower was a good pressure. They also had a cold water filter which was lovely!

    The room was a tad outdated, and while the AC did cool the room, it was a bit on the weak side. However, it was clean, and I was satisfied overall.

    The hostel has a great vibe, fun boat tour, and fabulous staff. The breakfast buffet was good. Not a huge variety of options, but enough to feel satisfied. The hostel is easily walkable for anything you might like to see in town.
