Guest Reviews
- Sara (10/5): Buena opción en Copacabana - La ubicación es genial, en una calle muy tranquila y segura de Copacabana. El grupo de WhatsApp es súper útil para poder quedar para planes de noche que es más complicado para ir sola. La ventana de mi habitación no se abría y a veces hacia demasiada humedad dentro.

- Milla (10/5): Um sonho - Se vc está sozinha eu te aconselho a ficar no Chez. Na minha experiência individual, consegui ótimas amizades, tanto entre os hóspedes qt entre o pessoal (Abraço especial p Flaviana e Luíza😘), sempre te indicam locais p ir e como vc pode ter a melhor experiência no Rio. A localização é a melhor possível p turistar. Ameiii e pretendo voltar!

- Camil (9/5): -
- Itay (10/5): -
- louise (5/5): SITUATION FORMIDABLE, immeuble avec un gros potentiel!!! - l'emplacement!!! Luiza à l'acceuil le ménage se fait par des volontaires DONC je comprends que la propreté laisse à désirer.
Immeuble négligé avec un gros potentiel. La terrasse sur la toîture pourrait être charmant.
Aussi les douches, EAU TROP CHAUDE!!
- Agustin Seco J (10/5): Chill place - Muy tranquilo, con lindas plantas y ambientación. Muy limpio todo!
- Fernanda (8/5): -
- Nicole (10/5): Had an excellent stay. Would go back. - The staff at Chez Zany are lovely - especially Flavia! Went above and beyond to help us. The property is cute and the end was extremely comfortable.
- Natacha (8/5): -
- Jairo R. (10/5): -
- Natalia Flores (10/5): - La habitación y la cama es extremadamente cómoda; la facilidad de ingreso y salida estuvo increíble.

- Adrian (9/5): -
- Capucine (10/5): - Beautiful hostel!! Absolutely loved it. The lady at the hostel was very friendly and helpful. Location is perfect - 5min walk to the beach front. The house cat was a plus (so cute and friendly!!) and showers facilities ect were all very clean
- Gabriela (7/5): - Location is great.
The room is big enough and the shared bathrooms are clean. The AC in the room is too noisy and the mattress not very confortable for me.
- beatrice (7/5): -
- Maria Paz (10/5): Visita Rio - Es un excelente lugar, está bien ubicado, es limpio, cómodo y silencioso. Tiene cafecito y té gratis y el día sábado tienen un detallazo que es un desayuno para los huéspedes. Tiene una gatita hermosa que ronronea y juega. Las chicas que atienden son muy amables. La cocina tiene de todo por si quieres preparar y comer ahí. Lo que considere más complicado fue regular el agua de la ducha (una vez que preguntas te explican y solucionado),
- Olivia (10/5): -
- Zuli Nayeli (10/5): - Me encantó, me sentí súper cómoda, los espacios están muy bien cuidados y el personal muy atento a que nunca falte nada. Sin duda, volvería, está muy bien ubicado, cerca de la playa y de restaurantes
- Phoebe (10/5): A lovely homey stay in a fab location - This is a really lovely hostel to stay in. It has a cosy, homey feel and the cat Oliva is the cherry on top! The girls who work there are lovely and very welcoming, shout out to Fla who was great - always responsive on WhatsApp and gave us a warm welcome when we arrived. The aircon in the rooms was great to have and there was lots of space for our stuff too including a balcony with a desk. The only thing was the temperature of the showers but maybe this is adjustable, we just didn’t know how. Everything else was fantastic!
- Roger (7/5): -
- Sarah (10/5): -
- cianci (6/5): -
- Dominika (10/5): - Loved this place! I stayed during carnival and had an amazing experience! They really made sure that we would enjoy our stay!
- Laura (8/5): - Fijne locatie en goede voorzieningen. Geen personeel aanwezig en daardoor ook geen bewaking voor baggage wat je daar even tijdelijk opslaat.
Verder was er in de kamer geen raam wat je open kon doen voor ventilatie.
- Milagros (9/5): Beautiful hostel - My friend and I stayed in a private room and it was perfect for our short stay. The hostel is located in a very nice area of Copacabana and it’s beautifully decorated. It lacks a bit of social vibe, though we met very nice people during the free breakfast that is served on Saturdays. They also have a lovely cat :) Overall I really liked this hostel. The only thing I kind of struggled with is the shower system. I couldn’t figure out how to regulate the water temperature.
- Enes (8/5): - Die Lage ist top. Man ist innerhalb von 5 Minuten am Strand. Oder in ca. unter 10Minuten an der Metro Station. Die Bäder wurden mehrmals am Tag gereinigt. Auch sehr hervorzuheben waren die Volunteers zu meinem Reisezeitpunkt. Eli, Cainã, Luciene und Lais sind sehr herzliche und sympathische Menschen. Alles in allem, war das ein unvergesslicher Karneval in einem sehr komfortablen Hostel Der Preis war etwas hoch. Dennoch lohnenswert
- Robert (10/5): Exactly what you want from a hostel - It was very nice to have my own private space in such a lively and well-attended hostel. Everyone, from the volunteer staff to the fellow guests, was super friendly and I had a great time getting to know them. It was the quintessential hostel experience and a great way to spend carnaval.
- Sozzi (10/5): Si vas a Río, hospedate en el Chez Zany! - Muy buena ubicación, las instalaciones tenían todo lo necesario para estar cómodas, tranquilidad y detalles que hicieron nuestra estadía en el Chez Zany una maravilla! Nos hospedamos con una amiga en la habitación privada de dos camas y fue genial! La cocina podría ser más grande...en horas pico de comida, nos chocábamos un poco
- Mariano (8/5): - Muy buena ubicación. Segura y cerca de una avenida y el barrio muy bonito.
Es un lugar juvenil pero tranquilo, limpio, además son atentos y es ideal si quieres salir y hacer algún plan El colchón no es bueno, y la cocina y espacio para preparar algo muy pequeño
- Simon (9/5): -
- Timo (6/5): - The location was amazing, the kitchen had everything you need, and the price-value was good. The room was small, dark, no natural ventilation due to the type of window with very little possibilities to hang and store your things. The bed felt not nice to sleep in due to the fabric of the sheets. The staff asked once whether we needed everything, the overall vibe was rather not very warm hearted for us during our stay.
- Nicolas (1/5): -
- Soraya (10/5): - Amazing location, staff is super nice and the overall vibe of the hostel is very warm. There is a cleaner which is so nice. Great value for money especially during carnival where prices double.
- Fernanda (6/5): O hostel não é boutique. - Localização próxima do Metrô Siqueira Campos (10 minutos) Hostel sem recepção, banheiros apenas no térreo, sem lâmpada individual nas camas, os voluntários não ficam na casa
- Shih-Chang (8/5): - The building itself is beautiful. The bed is too soft for me. One of the bathroom have problem to control water temperature and it may be either too cold or too hot.

- AURE (10/5): -
- Nina from Tallinn (10/5): - This place was perfect for us. The staff is super friendly and helpful. The hostel is an old house turn into a boutique hostel but super funky and stylish. We really liked it. You will feel like at home there.
Good wifi, comfy beds, easy check-in. Location is fantastic, close to everything, just a couple of blocks from the beach and metro. And you also get a fluffy company while there. It was perfect. They could have a bit more cups and glasses in the kitchen, for water drinking. But that's just small details
- Gabrielle (8/5): -
- Bettoni (9/5): - Molto pulito
- Paula (10/5): - Es un Hostel sencillo pero cómodo y muy limpio. La ubicación es excelente. Muy cerca de la playa de Copacabana.
- Gisela (7/5): -
- Sarah (10/5): Parfait - Tout était parfait :
- la localisation au sein du quartier de Copacabana dans une rue résidentielle calme et sécurisée, à proximité des commerces et de la plage,
- l’hostel est installé dans une maison historique très bien conservée avec beaucoup de cachet, très bien décorée et très confortable,
- la chambre privée que nous avons eu était décorée avec goût, pas très grande mais fonctionnelle avec du rangement et un accès sur un patio pour faire sécher le linge,
- les salles de bain communes sont très propres, nettoyées régulièrement, et bien équipées,
- la cuisine dispose de tout le nécessaire,
- et enfin, l’équipe est adorable et réactive pour répondre aux questions, petite mention spéciale pour Oliva le chat de la maison. Rien

- Raniele (10/5): -
- Cecilia (8/5): - Estaba bien ubicado, limpio y tienen café para compartir. El dormitorio cuenta con cerradura electrónica . Cocina completa. No hay personal que te reciba al llegar y te muestre las instalaciones o resuelvas dudas, me pareció un clima un tanto frío en comparación a otros hostels. Tienen tres duchas, dos de las cuales el agua sale o caliente o fría, no templada. La cocina es pequeña y hay que cocinar por turnos pero está completa. No hay lugar donde dejar la ropa secar (al menos el bikini sería bueno). No tiene muchas ventanas y las que hay son con vidrios esmerilados.
- Martini (10/5): -
- Gabriela (8/5): - Lors de mon séjour, l'eau est partie pendant 2 jours, c'est la seule mauvaise chose.
J'ai du partir histoire de pouvoir prendre une douche. Dommage ☹️
- Sabrina (6/5): Razoável - Da localização, das meninas da limpeza Não há checagem de documentos, isso me deixou preocupada. O quarto tinha cheiro de mofo e não havia janela.
- Japheth (7/5): -
- María Elizabeth (10/5): -
- Dorieke (9/5): - Good vibes!
- Tati (10/5): Foi maravilhoso ficar nesse hostel. Super indico - Local aconchegante O ar condicionado tem horário para ligar, só pode ligar depois das 21. De dia não pode ficar ligado
- Ophélie (7/5): Hostel très agréable et bien tenu - Emplacement parfait à Copacabana. Les espaces communs étaient très propre.
Coup de cœur pour le chat de l’hostel 🫶🏼 Manque de rangement dans la chambre
- Dietrich (8/5): Hospedagem no precinho em Copacabana. - Boa localização. Limpeza em dia
- Marcin (8/5): Klimatyczny hostel w dobrej lokalizacji. - Klimatyczny hostel, bardzo dobra lokalizacja, czuliśmy się bezpiecznie. Bardzo fajny zadbany koci rezydent. Trochę mały, skromny pokój.
- Nathalia (8/5): -
- Rachel (9/5): -
- Lefora (7/5): -
- Darwin Alexis (10/5): - La tranquilidad. No tengo nada malo que decir.
- Sergio (8/5): - Ubicación bien La habitación es muy pequeña, apenas caben las maletas/mochilas. Solo hay baño en la planta baja y nosotros estábamos arriba, no es muy cómodo.
- Bruno (10/5): Estadia muito tranquila e segura, comunicação fácil e acessível. - Da organização, limpeza, conforto e localização
- Guillermo (10/5): -
- stefano (8/5): -
- Pelle (6/5): Nice location, room could be better - De locatie, easy walk to Copacabana beach and little walk to Ipanema Beach The Rooms. It had no window. But you also heard a lot of sound from the hostel. Was a bit annoying
- Lukas (9/5): - Ein sehr schönes Hostel mitten in Copacabana. Die Gastgeber und das Personal sind super freundlich und ich habe mich sehr wohl gefühlt! Ich komme wieder :) Alles super!
- CLEBERSON (9/5): Localização e limpeza excelentes - A localização é excelente, a poucos quarteirões da praia e da estação de metrô, em uma rua tranquila, porém segura. O Hostel é bem limpo e você recebe uma toalha para uso e cadeado também. Você fica em cama ao invés de beliche, o que para mim, é excelente. No banheiro há sabonete líquido e shampoo. O ar condicionado no meu quarto (estúdio) não refrigerava o suficiente, o que deixava o quarto quente e desconfortável à noite para dormir. Outro ponto é que na casa há móveis e uma infraestrutura velha, o que faz com quem tem rinite alérgica sofrer um pouco.
- Corinna (9/5): -
- Esmeralda (1/5): Sin recepción, sin interés en el huesped - Ubicación Arriba de mi cama estaba el aire acondicionado que prendian desde las 9 pm hasta las 9 am. Es una máquina vieja que suena muy fuerte. La 1ra noche fue horrible. La 2da noche peor porque hacía ruido y los otros huespedes que estaban en mi misma habitación fueron a molestarme mientras yo dormía. La ultima noche no la pasé en el hostel, fui directo a otro hotel. Nadie me hizo el check in ni el check out. Todo se maneja por un grupo de Whatsapp y el personal parece que está bastante cansado y eso repercute en la atención. Además la ventilación de la habitación donde quedé era pésima, el aire acondicionado no ayuda con los olores. De las peores experiencias en hostales.
- Aimee (7/5): Overall, my experience was positive. - The location was perfect and Flaviana was very helpful whenever needed. The facilities were well maintained and had everything you needed (if not above and beyond other hostels). Only thing to note is that the dorm door is a bit loud when opening and closing — not a big issue, but something to be mindful of for other guests.
- Eleanor (7/5): Good location - Nice location in Copacabana. Fairly close to the beach and we felt safe walking around. Nice vibe in the place, people and the volunteers were friendly. Using the kitchen was helpful, the bed was comfy, and the bathrooms were well maintained. Our sheets were stained when we arrived. We didn't get a change of towels/sheets in the 5 nights we stayed which would have been a nice option. Our window couldn't be closed, which meant mosquitos could come in. There wasn't much of a social space- the sofa area isn't that inviting to hang out in, and the terrace was just used by people smoking, so it wasn't as good as I'd hoped to meet people.
- Lucia (10/5): - El ingreso al no tener nadie en recepción fue súper cómodo, ya que te envían código de ingreso y pdf de como manejarte al llegar.
Limpieza, y mucha tranquilidad.
Hay un grupo de wsp donde podes consultar y además Dan info los que están alojados.
Las duchas geniales, cuentan con jabón shampo y crema.
Cocina de 10 tenes todo para cocinar.
Flavia, siempre dispuesta.
Oliva (gata) un amor. El colchón podría estar en mejor estado, ya que se hundia mucho.
- Maite Rocio (10/5): - Todo lo que necesitábamos. Buena ubicación, era posible cocinar y volver tarde. El precio estaba acorde a los servicios. Súper recomendable! Nos encantó
- Aiora (7/5): -
- Letícia Rafaela (10/5): -
- Marcos Paim Maciel (8/5): -
- LARISSA (10/5): Excelente - Ambiente tranquilo e acolhedor, equipe super simpática e receptiva, boa localização. As camas do quarto coletivo são de solteiro, e não beliches como na maioria dos hostels. Oferecem toalhas e roupas de cama de boa qualidade. Estadia maravilhosa. Já me hospedei no Chez Zany 3 vezes e com certeza voltarei mais. Na minha opinião o principal ponto negativo é não haver nenhum banheiro no andar de cima. Como sugestão, poderiam avaliar a possibilidade de montarem um cantinho com mesa e cadeiras para para os hospedes que precisam trabalhar remoto.
- Isabela (10/5): - Já é a terceira vez que fico nesse hostel, e com certeza ficarei mais vezes. O atendimento, acomodação e localização são excelentes. Agradecimento especial a Flaviana e Izadora, que sempre foram muito atenciosas e deixaram a nossa estadia ainda mais especial! Obrigada!
- Shirlei (10/5): -
- Marco (9/5): - Ostello molto carino, in una zona molto tranquilla e sicura di Copacabana. La stanza matrimoniale era molto piccola e forse non comodissima, però tutto sommato andava bene. Posto pulito nel complesso, staff gentile, tutto ok. Il punto esclamativo è stato la gatta Oliva. Stanza un po' piccola e non comodissima, per quanto ok nel complesso.
