Other Side Hostel

Travessa 11 de Maio #16 - Rio de Janeiro, Brazil

Directions (how to arrive at the hostel):

From the bus terminal: take bus #126... it will leave the terminal, get onto an expressway, then exit the expressway and ride DIRECTLY THROUGH THE SAMBDROMO. Ring the bell and get off at the stop just after the Sambodromo... cross the street and follow the small street alongside the blue fence... there we are, you have arrived in less than 10 minutes! For more than 1 traveler, a taxi from the terminal is only R$10 in local currency.

From the International Airport, take the blue REAL shuttle bus to the bus terminal, then from there take bus 126 and follow the easy directions above... a taxi from the airport will cost about R$30-40. All you need to tell any taxi driver is 'Sambodromo'. Everyone knows it. From there we are easy to find.

From the South Zone (Copacabana, Ipanema) you can take bus #433, or use the metro to Praça Onze Station... when you exit the station, simply walk toward the great, arched Apoteose at the end of the Sambodromo and you will have no trouble finding us. It's a very safe neighborhood, so feel free to ask in any bar or store for directions if you somehow get disoriented. See you soon!
