"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

BlackBook
"Au courant hotel is a surprise find in the center. White lobby with glossy black banquette sets the colorway for the rest of the place."
Rough Guide
"The designer “look” in the public areas – white and chrome, with sparse red splashes – was great when new, but needed more care than it’s had."
