People who intend to travel to Brazil with children must consult with the Brazilian consulate before travelling for more information.

Gerardo is a great host! I felt at home during my stay here. The property is close to Pelourinho, in a residential area, which is quiet and parking was easy to find. The breakfast is delicious. Highly recommended if you want somewhere walking distance to the old town.
foi muito boa, tudo que estava oferecido funcionou como deveria ou melhor, o local é próximo do centro histórico, e o atendimento, a presteza e cordialidade foram pontos fortes durante minha estadia.

A basic hostel close to the Historic Centre
This is a basic hostel which does the job but will not excite. If you want a place close to the historic centre, that is cheap and are just looking for somewhere to put your head down then this is the place. It is a small hostel with only 3 rooms which is quite outdated and so this may not suit anyone who is looking to party or that likes a bit more luxury.
The owner of this hostel is extremely welcoming and willing to help in anyway he can. The wifi in the hostel is very good and a reasonable breakfast of scrabble eggs, meat cheese and home made bread and cake is provided each morning.
The bedrooms consist of a bed and a free standing fan. The bathroom is basic but has a good amount of hot water and does the job.
The hostel is located only 200metres from the historic centre up a steep narrow street. This street seems a bit intimidating at night although we never had any issues. At worst it is a very cheap taxi ride from the centre.
Overall as long as you are happy with just the basics this is a very good value hostel in the centre of Slavador but it will not be for everyone.
