Em geral, é uma experiência agradável. O hostel está localizado no centro da cidade, próximo a vários tipos de comércio e da estação de barcas, que permite chegar ao centro do Rio de Janeiro em menos de 30 minutos. Considerei outro ponto positivo as folgas fixas aos finais de semana, e uma folga semanal. A estrutura do alojamento de equipe é simples. É uma boa oportunidade para quem busca descansar porque a maioria dos hóspedes são trabalhadores de offshore que usam o hostel apenas como dormitório. A comunicação da equipe é falha, o que gera desgastes desnecessários.
