We know that you as a traveller booking a hostel need to know quick and clear answers to the most important questions concerning prices and facilities, so we've put together a brief list of some of the things we have to offer:

Wei ve got breakfast from 8am to 10.30am, with fruit, cereal and much more.

Therei s also a book exchange, bike rental, free internet access, two kitchens and a tours desk.

You catch enjoy our bar and watch all the big championships on television, including the amazing championi s league and Sunday Night Football on ESPN.

To talk about yourself is really difficult. We don't feel prepared to do it. We prefer to let the crowd speak for us. We just work very hard to provide great experiences here. We love Rio and we want you all to love it too.

So herei s some things people have said about us: 'Books Hostel is a nice hostel with a great decoration and a plethora of cool people.' 'The place is full of cool artwork and has a good vibe'. 'Live here and be happy' is the motto on the wall, and we certainly live by it. The staff are a group of friends who love nothing more than hanging out with guests and make them feel right at home.' 'They help you beyond what you would expect.'If youi re travelling alone Books is 'A fantastic place to meet other guests'. 'The hostel is located in the middle of Lapa and Santa Teresa' 'which hosts the most amazing street parties' and 'it is really easy to transport to the City and the Beaches.'

We can say that 'Caring, cultural and fun are the three best words to describe it.'

This is truly a gem of a place!

Directions

From Santos Dummont Airport:
A cab is your best option. Iti s very close, and it costs around R$15. It's so close that you can actually walk, but we advise you not to with bags and without knowing the city.

From the international airport (Galei o/ Antonio Carlos Jobim):
Iti s a little more difficult.
You will always be able to take a cab, but iti s a bit expensive, about R$45, that can easily turn into R$60 during rush hour. A cheaper option is to take bus number 2018 or 2145 (company Real Autobus). You'll get off at Santos Dummond airport and then take a cab or another bus. Our suggestion is to take a cab.
Believe us, we just want you to start your vacation in Rio on the right track!

Please note that we don't have any signs outside. Look for number 10 above the door. It is small but you can see!
