from the moment we arrived we were not happy, we had paid a deposit of 800 reals (£220) as half the payment on a 2 day stay. we were met by the owners sister who basically was not fit to take on this role, we ordered 2 beers and were told to take them out of our room fridge, we wanted supper and were told we should have it in our room, there are live cables hanging out of the wall, you can only have one bath a day and one of the workers have to turn it on, we couldnt even regulate the temperature!. we actually walked out, lost our 800 reals and found somewhere else to stay. we've stayed in better hostels at a fraction of the price
