Run for your life !
Paraty is a place to visit! Just skip this property. It’s not a hostel more like a local residence/ party spot. There was 3 families living there, that made it all rather unusual. The music never stops it’s on all day and typically goes off around 3-4 am. It’s difficult to get a good nights sleep. The bar/restaurant had nothing to drink other than 2 beers and only had potato chips for snacks. Not what I typically expect from a hostel. I also had booked with them a transfer at 7 am which I missed because nobody was awake to even check me out at that time. Sadly to say skip it !

Ótimo lugar e atendimento
A localização é ótima e o atendimento dos meninos, excelente. Além das moradoras caninas locais (a Preta e a Mel) que são maravilhosas. Alguns detalhes com relação ao conforto e condições da cozinha e do café podem ser alterados, mas nada que atrapalhe a estadia. Relação custo x benefício, ótima. Vale à pena, pra quem busca local com preço bom e com boa localização.

Simpático e confortável - friendly and comfortable
Os meninos foram muito simpáticos e atenciosos! O lugar é super bacana e aconchegante. Me senti em casa e fui sempre muito bem tratada. Super recomendo! Ja fazendo planos para voltar para paraty e com certeza ficarei em bossa nova. Wonderful. Service was great. They boys who run the hostel were very friendly and thoughtful. They made sure I felt home while staying there.I'll definitely come back
