    We had an incredible stay at Refugio Hostel! the staff spoke perfect English and were so nice and welcoming. They took care of us the whole time, providing recommendations on where to go and even helping with transportation to our next destination. the hostel itself was beautifully decorated, with paintings on the walls and plenty of electricity outlets. There were lots of common areas to relax and socialize, and the lockers were spacious and well-maintained. the beds were comfortable and the rooms were spacious, with tables and chairs provided. the breakfast was absolutely amazing, with a variety of options and freshly blended fruit juice.

    Highly recommended for any travelers. Cons: Nothing at all!

    I had a fantastic stay at this hostel! The building was charming and the garden was a cute touch. The cleanliness of the hotel was impressive, and the WiFi worked well. There were a couple of great places to hang out and meet new people. This hostel seemed to attract a lot of foreigners. The staff was the best part - everyone was super nice and made me feel welcomed throughout my stay. The owner, Karl from Karlsruhe, gave me plenty of insider advice about the city and the country in general.

    Didn't dislike anything about the hotel.

    I chose Refugio Hostel for its convenient location near the Museum Maracatu Cearense. However, I was pleasantly surprised by the friendly and helpful staff. The free WiFi throughout the property was a bonus, and I particularly enjoyed the buffet breakfast served each morning in the breakfast room.

    Few mosquitoes, common in Brazil.

    The bathrooms at Refugio Hostel Fortaleza are a breath of fresh air! They are flooded with natural light and have hairdryers available. What's even better is that the hot water is heated using green energy from solar panels. It's so cool to know that we're staying somewhere eco-friendly!

    Some might find it a bit small, but I personally loved the cozy feel of the room.

    The hostel had good wifi, spacious dorms, and clean bathrooms with good water pressure. There were also areas to chill out and relax, like hammocks and balconies. the staff were generally friendly and helpful, providing advice and directions.

    The location of the hostel was not great, as the surrounding streets could be dodgy at night.

    Loved the cozy atmosphere and beautiful gardens. the double room was really nice with a working AC and spacious bathroom. the staff, including the owner, were super friendly and helpful. Great location close to the center.

    The kitchen could be better equipped, but it wasn't too bad. the air-conditioning in the room was a little too cold at night.
