Giramondo Hostel

Sao Paulo

The hostel is located in a nice house in Vila Madalena, a beautiful area in Sao Paulo. I stayed there only one night, and it was ok, but honestly it was not nothing special.  I think that the main reason for my very "cold" opinion it that the hostel was packed, because a big rock festival was ongoing in Sao Paulo and this was the ONLY bed I could find (out of 10 hostels I checked online). So there were too many guests and the people working there were not prepared. Everything was fine, but since I payed 100 R$ for a bed in a 8 bed dorm (probably because of this rock festival ongoing), I was expecting something better. Nothing bad, but I arrive at 7 PM and my bed is not free, then the locker is broken and falls on my feet twice, the breakfast is just a joke (no more coffee, cheap biscuits, butter and 3 oranges. not just for me, 3 oranges in total), the bathroom is done in such a basic way that it gets floaded after you take a shower. No major problems, but I have seen much better places in Sao Paolo, even for half this prize. One more thing: is 15 minutes walking distance to the Vila Madalena metro station. In Sao Paulo you do not walk this distance over night, so take a cab. Don't worry Taxi is cheap (<10 R$).

Nice house, but a bit disappointing

I spent two excellent nights, the place is impeccably clean and well situated, and several nights a week semi-professional jazz bands come to play outside the hostel, a warm and friendly atmosphere, and the staff have been a great help, and I thank them for that!

Super hostel

A clean, cozy and extremely familiar hostel, the owner is a wonderful person who doesn't make you feel like a guest but like you're at home, an ideal location in the safest, liveliest and cleanest quarter of St. Paul.
