the hostel also has
some interesting history seeing as the building is believed to
have been an upholstery/tinting shop - the hostel was designed
by contemporary architect
hélio pellegrino.
pellegrino
effortlessly created a charming establishment that at first

old materials and transformed them to have a new purpose, such
as empty perfume bottles turned lamps.
