Staying at Rio Earth was a great experience and added greatly to my stay in Rio.
Filipi and Jessica were great hosts, welcoming me in from the moment I arrived.
They manage to create a homely feel in the hostel which meant we often all went out together or spent the day at the beach or hanging out together- this was great as I soon felt very at home and not like I was staying in a hostel!
The location is really good- close to lots of buses and the metro and Jessica and Filipi were always very helpful advising me to which bus/ metro to get and how to get around rio.
It is a 10 minute walk to Lapa which Is a great place to spend the evening drinking and dancing!
The hostel itself was clean and everything worked well. The beds were comfy too! They created a relaxed vibe while often inviting us out with them in the evening which was always fun!
I would really recommend people to stay here as I met lots of nice people and ended up staying longer than originally planned.
It was hard to leave but if I go back to Rio I would stay here again!
All in all a great stay
