My room was filled with mold and mildew. I knew from the second i opened the door to my room. It smelled like mold and mildew so bad that I couldn't even sleep there. I went and slept at a friends Airbnb couch thats how bad room 11's mold issue it. They need to fix that ASAP.

This was my worst hostel experience thus far, avoid at all costs. I am a seasoned traveler and have stayed at many hostels, this was the worst customer service experience I have had. I checked in with a friend, they charged her the correct amount and showed her the credit card processer. When I went to pay, they didn’t show me the processer,I asked to see it and they were attempting to overcharge me by 32. Completely dishomest. checked into our (dirty) room there were no sheets on the bed.

At check-in, which took far too long and where we were provided no information about the facility, the two attendants blatantly attempted to charge half the party €30 more for the same reservation. When this was called out, they were not apologetic. The room did not include clean sheets, or hand soap. We paid for breakfast and were not told it was only served until 10. Again, they were not apologetic for the lack of communication and tried to blame us.

Leider wirkte das Hostel etwas verwahrlost. Das Personal war leider auch etwas unorganisiert. Ich musste 3 Mal das Zimmer wechseln. Küche leider sehr minimalistisch ausgestattet.

Super nice! Very clean and safe. A bit from the beach but 300m from the train up to Christ the Redeemer so in that sense perfect.

The hostel is very beautiful, has very nice rooms and beds. It’s very big though, too big to connect with other travelers. It’s very nice if you’re traveling groups for solo traveling it’s not social enough

Good hostel, it feels almost like a hotel. Rooms are clean and really nice, it’s just up the block from Christ redeemer which is also cool. Would consider staying again but would possibly choose somewhere in Santa Teresa where there’s bars etc

Adoro e sempre me hospedo nesse lugar. Minha única sugestão seria de reservarem o número da cama, pois por ordem de chegada dessa vez fiquei na beliche de cima o que para mim não é nada confortável devido a problema no joelho. Fiz esse pedido com antecedência mas o atendente disse não ser possível atender, mas já consegui de outras vezes. Já me hospedei no Joe&joe de outros países onde na reserva já sabemos o número da cama, inclusive temos opção de escolha.

They tried to over charge us, I had to pull up the amount I owed and tell them again and again that the deposit was what I already paid & they kept saying no it’s tax that you need to pay, I obviously didn’t pay it but still thought this was really strange, the WiFi is awful!! The fact they have no kitchen is also sooo bad, you can refill your water in the restaurant but they literally just use the tap I’m not sure how good that is, only 2 USB’s in the room worked out of 8, traffic is so...

Nice property, felt very safe, great place to launch from. A lot of the staff seemed annoyed whenever they had to get involved with the visitors in any way, they were for the most part not very nice. That was a pity, but the property itself was very nice!

Super établissement, je recommande totalement, literie super ( un peu dur mais mieux qu’un matelas qui touche les lattes), prise etc à disposition, espace privé dans le lit, 2 douches et 2 toilettes dans la chambre, le ménage est fait tout les 2 jours tapis de douche changé, 2 piscines, énormément d’espace, très bonne restauration à prix abordable, l’auberge est en collaboration avec le groupe accor donc n’hésitez pas. En revanche ce n’est pas le mieux pour rencontrer des gen...

Eu amei! Todos os funcionários atenciosos e fofos. O lugar é lindo, bem grande, com uma historia rica, é legal explorar o lugar. Tem bastante ambiente para socializar. Fica pertinho do bondinho do cristo e a 15min de carro das praias (melhor pegar moto por conta do transito). É um bairro seguro, mas sabe né, é RJ…

The place looks nice on pictures.. however, the pool and restaurant were not open, and the staff was absolutely no help with trying to find another place to eat. I also asked to be refunded some of my money, that I payed to stay here, because of the lack of promised facilities. This was not an option. Staff unfriendly and rooms, common areas and kitchen were dirty. Would BOT recommend this place!

Jo&Joe came with a very good reputation, and the facilities, location and general aesthetics did not disappoint. However, I was disappointed with bedrooms. I stayed in a private twin room, and given you are paying a premium over other hostels the rooms were fairly standard. The most annoying part was that the mattresses were as hard as a rock. Apart from that, staff were great, the atmosphere was social and the common areas are very good.

Es ist an sich ein total schönes Hostel aber null zu empfehlen wenn man Leute kennenlernen möchte oder vom Hostel Aktivitäten organisiert bekommen möchte. Mangel an Interaktion
