Very kind and friendly owners ! some hours the day, you can meet the whole family there. Roses english is very good - we were really happy about that. Only few individuals in Salvador are able to speak or understand english.

Owner was really helpful, she walked us to the marketplace and even made my partner some herbal remedy tea to help her sore throat! Nice quiet place for some down time following carnaval.

Hey, this is a very good and clean place. we had excellent time there. the people speak English, are helpful and very kind. it's a familiarly atmosphere which enables an authentic experience in the heart of the historic centre. we stayed a couple of days. facilities, breakfast, rooms are absolutely worth it. I definitely enjoyed the shower in the backyard. in order to respond to some ratings made in here: there is another shower and toilet downstairs, breakfast always comes with fresh fruits, tee, coffee etc. and if there is something missing you just ask for it. we appreciate the good information about the city, safeness and the recommendations made by the owners. as the name says this is a friendship-making place, between tourist and travellers and even better and more important to locals. thanks,

Hostel Amizade was in several ways not a particularly good hostel although the building itself is great. The shared dorm had no door, there was one shower shared in between all guests, towel and internet had to be paid for, no air conditioner and in my dorm not even a fan. Despite this the hostel had a extremely good atmosphere as properly as the staff were extremely warm and friendly and helpful. Breakfast was extremely good. Superb location especially for the Carnival. I would suggest it despite my reservations.

I was shocked to locate that there was only one shower for everyone to share, extremely small and pokey so difficult to get dressed bearing in mind my room became mixed sex. One toilet for men, one for women but that was ok. You have to pay for net access on ancient computers and it took for ever to do just about anything online. The breakfast on the first day was good - fresh fruit, coffee, bread, cheese and ham, but the second day no cheese and ham so breakfast a bit sparse. This is extremely much a family hostel in that it is the family home with kids and also the ironing done inside the primary room. The lady who runs it was very useful though, and generally it was clean and tidy. Difficult to use cooking area as few utensils, or crockery, and you have to pay to use the cooker. Very effortless and cheap to eat outside. Very noisy during the night time but fine in case you dont plan to sleep - exceptional location and fab for individuals watching. The mattress was extremely comfortable.
