I have been to Rio before many years ago but never stayed at a hostel! I arrived after a long flight from Cape Town and felt at home and welcome as soon as i walked through the door. The staff are great. The WIFI is amazing. The best thing is that they close the bar early so everybody goes out... More

This hostel is well worth your money. The young staff share good tips with you, the hostel is a 5 minute walk from the Copacabana beach, and close to supermarkets, restaurants and bars. The breakfast is good for being free, and the kitchen has all the necessary things for cooking your own meal. The atmosphere at this hostel is really... More

After travelling the world for 6 months I can definitely confirm that Cabanacopa was literally the best I stayed in across 20 different countries. The rooms are so clean and tidy- every morning they are scrub for head to toe. Each bed has its only individual reading light so you can chill and read in bed without waking anyone else... More

The CabanaCopa hostel was a great choice in Rio! It was within walking distance of restaurants, the metro and best of all Copacabana beach! The staff was helpful for the most part and were able to speak English with me. There were several activities listed in the common rooms for both nightlife activities as well as the common tourist areas... More

The CabanaCopa hostel is great. I stayed there four days and the personnel were really friendly and answered all my questions about which bus to go to get to different places in Rio, which places they recommended and so on. They can tell you when and where the party will be every night, and if you wanna go on a... More

This was my first experience in a hostel which I mention since I have nothing to compare it to. I would agree that it could have been cleaner and I think the breakfast although different each day, could have been improved, including perhaps a fruit bowl with apples, bananas, etc. It's location was great and I felt safe in the...

Very close to to centre and beach. Great vibe. Best thing is by far the food, for breakfast, fresh and lots of it, stuffed full. Would be five out of five but the location next to a school makes it loud during the day, and obviously it's loud in a dorm at night. But this is my only moan, everything... More

I just stayed at this hostel, so this is how I experienced the stay, being here very recently. CabanaCopa Hostel is a nice hostel, situated very close to Copacabana Beach, supermarket, gas station, restaurants etc. It looks fairly good both inside and on the outside, and it's colorful and playful you could say, sometimes too playful because sometimes, a couple...

Some of the staff are extremely friendly and somewhat helpful, but most are really bad. The management is extremely poor. Our ensuite bathroom was clogged the entire week and management seemed not to care. After asking multiple times, it still was not fixed. It was fine because the common bathroom was just out the door. However, the common bathroom remained... More
