Hostelworld says

CabanaCopa is set next to Morro de São João park, just a few minutes' walk from Copacabana beach. This clean, friendly hostel offers a good balance of nightlife and quiet atmosphere, with an onsite bar open until around 10pm. It also has some nice little essential features, like a varied breakfast and plug sockets at each bed. Hostelworld guests tell us they'd stay here again and will recommend it to friends.

Dorms are small, it was hard to walk in and out of the dorm because some travelers would leave their backpacks on the floor, due to the lockers being small. But overall it’s a really good place!

Good location in Copacabana, and great staff. However I found the rooms super crowded; they put too many beds in one room for its size, leaving insufficient space for all of us, much less our stuff.

Chill vibe, nice athmosphere, and friendly staff. Bar is inviting to have a drink and get to know other guests. Room was better than expected. The location is good as well, only a few minutes to restaurants, bars, and the beach. Only critics would be that in our room all power outlets didn’t work because of a flipped fuse and it took more than a day and several times of asking about it to fix it.

My bed was so humid that it was almost wet. (Everyone’s beds was like that). They make you put on and take off your sheet, so they don’t have to clean (and they don’t). My bed was filled with balls of dust and dirt, and there was an old toilet paper roll on it. The staff didn’t know which beds were free when we checked in cause every bed looked dirty and used, and had to check twice. Kitchen was dirty and fridge was full of moldy food.

I found the hostel extremely noisy and dirty. There were no really places to be to work calmly. Wifi didn't work very well. The photos of the website are not similar to reality. I would recommend going to a smaller hostel even if it's further from the beach, since uber is so cheap! It was not bad at all, just not what I expected from the photos and what I read.

This hostel is ok for a night or two, but it is very unclean and the facilities aren’t great. We stayed two nights and I wouldn’t have wanted to stay any longer. The rooms are very small, smelly, and the mattresses and pillows are ancient and should definitely be replaced, all the showers are also very unclean as well

CabanaCopa Hostel says

We're in a unique location near the beach, next to a park where you can see the jungle in the middle of Copacabana Beach. The nearest attractions are, of course, Copacabana Beach and the Sugar Loaf, but the one place that I recommend to guests is Copacabana Fort. I think this hostel is perfect for backpackers who want to stay in a good location at a budget price, or anyone else, although we don't allow children. For fun people like to play cards and pool, watch movies and socialise in the cinema lounge, have a drink at the bar, cook big meals in the kitchen or even cook a barbecue in the patio area. We also have some great extras like air conditioning and blackout curtains in most of the rooms.
