“Buena Onda Hostel benefits from a location with emerging appeal, and I noted positive mentions of the staff's friendliness, particularly Julia. While a solo traveler found value in the private room with patio for needed space, prospective guests should consider this aspect in relation to the overall hostel experience. My impression is that it presents a solid, developing option in Rio.”
