Great place. I recommend to everybody. Next time I stay in Salvador I will stay there again. Clean place, perfectly located in Pelourinho and the breakfast is amazing. Another good thing there is they have air conditioning and safebox. The cons is they don't accept credit cards. More

My 2-night stay at Hostel Galeria 13 was so good that I decided to come back for 3 nights after I had visited Morro do Sao Paulo. When I got back there, I was really feeling I was home again !

-Very nice staff -very easy to get to connect with other travellers - fx in the jacuzzi while drinking nice free caprinhas from the housebar - the best breakfast, and for many hours - very good facilities and good location. - I can only recommend choosing Galleria 13 for your stay in Pelourinho.

This is the best hostel to visit if in Salvador. It is located smack in the Pelourinho so you get the full cultural experience of Salvador. We stayed in a private ensuite double room (Macau) overlooking the small pool and two of the three chillout areas (2 outdoors). Free wifi and free computer use. The free breakfast is from 8am...

Hostel Galeria was the perfect place for us. We stayed there for 3 nights in a clean and safety area. Staff was friendly and helpful, nice little pool and perfect breakfast where its never to late for scrambled eggs. Ask the staff for the nicest beaches or whatever and with patience they give the answers. Rooms are clean and also... More

I absolutely loved this hostel! A very unique and cozy spot in the center of all the pelourinho action. In addition to a very helpful staff this hostel also serves one of the best breakfasts I've had in all my travels(plus, it's served till midday which is awesome after those late nights out). The owner would always ask "would you... More

Has an excellent area to chill out and a great breakfast, and can also dine in the restaurant belonging to the hostel, which is right near the same! As it is located... More

The moment you arrive at Galleria 13 you are made to feel welcome. Every traveller knows the most important things are hot water, cleanliness and atmosphere. This hostel has all three. Galleria 13 does not try to take advantage through extra costs. It is run efficently and with the guests stay at the heart of what it does. Breakfast is... More

I stayed there twice this year and I'm planning to go for the third time. I've already stayed in 2 other hostels in Salvador (both with HI mark and one of them in Pelourinho), and this one was by far the best - because of the friendly manner of the whole staff, because of the instalations (the chill out is...
