Limetime is a true backpacker's hostel. The place has great energy and is good to meet people. If you are looking for the party in São Paulo, this is the spot. I had a great time here and Bebeto is a very involved owner which is very refreshing. We had some great conversations and he really wanted to here about... More

The hostel is really nice, location is great with the subway stations nearby. I met a lot of people telling me that sao paulo is not really a nice city. I think it is a nice city. Stayed for 5 days, and enjoyed it.

I've been there twice and always stayed at LimeTime. Since the first time, Bebeto (the owner) was a great host. He and his staff take the guests to parties where he plays or wants to go, give tips where to have fun, eat, etc. There's a bar on the other house and it's really cool to chill out or get... More

My friend and I spent 2 nights here and we really did not enjoy our stay here. The rooms were really smelly and stuffy, needed much better ventilation. The resident dog cute to look at but really annoying, he begs constantly and gets extremely snappy. He bit a girl while she was eating her dinner. The reception staff can be... More

This hostel is clean and comfortable, however it has a horrible snappy dog that bit my partner on the knee for no apparent reason. Partner owns his own dog and so fully knows how to handle them. Other people have been bitten by the horrible dog too. The staff just shrugged it off saying it was a house dog and... More

Thanks for your candid comments. I was present the whole time, even when he bit your boyfriend. We talked about it, and I made sure the dog is vaccinated and has absolutely no diseases, as it's a pure bred pedigree dog, not a stray one. The concern is understandble, but the injury was minimal. We were not absent at any... More

This is a party hostel they way it should be. Do not expect any art deco decor other than green and previous hostel guests graffiti, but expect a bar with free drinks from 9pm-9.15pm every night, cheap drinks after, and staff that take your out almost every night of the week. It's easy to meet people, good well equipped kitchen... More
