Located in São Luís and with Arthur Azevedo Theather reachable within a 3-minute walk, Solar dos Poetas provides a shared lounge, non-smoking rooms, free WiFi throughout the property and a bar.

Sharp parts of tiles were falling from the floor, some tiles were missing. Rooms aren't well maintained and do not look like the pictures. Shower heater had exposed electrical cords which didn't felt very safe.

Budget travelers know there's no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: Save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a little more.

    The staff were super duper friendly, we got free towels and lots of hugs. Everyone was shirtless and free. The perfect hostel for a loving couple or single couple.

    Basic Hotel, clean, good shower, missing a safe in the room and a long mirror. Great location, however, bar opposite is a little noisy.
