"Uber-sleek hotel as full of Europeans as Europe. Everything else from the nationally grown wood to the Campana brothers' rope lobby chairs ensures the Emiliano stays brasileiro."

"On rainy days young people lounge on the couches in this classic backpacker's hostel that's complete with do-it-yourself laundry facilities and a cook-for-yourself kitchen."
Rough Guide
"Despite the name, this is a hostel rather than a pousada, with most accommodation in (segregated) dorms, although it has some private rooms too (with or without bathroom)."
Lonely Planet
"On a quiet, almost suburban street, yet just a short walk to Av Paulista, this veteran hostel offers decent communal digs, bright and pleasant common areas, and private rooms of varying sizes." Full review
