Description
The Galeria 13 team includes a great mix: In reception alone you might be greeted by our staff from Brazil, Argentina, Spain, and the England-hailing owner -- all of whom sharing their common love for Salvador.
In its former life as a bar, the old colonial house was a famous hang-out for artists and musicians.
The upper two floors divided into four private rooms and two dorms, all with air conditioning and private bathrooms, and wooden flooring.
Downstairs on the main floor you will find the large common area: our 24/7 reception, our stylish bar & a Moroccan chill-out room where you can relax and mix with other guests.
Running along on the out side of the house you will discover the super garden and terrace area where breakfast is served. Here you will also find the only pool in all of Salvador's hostels where you can hang out, swap stories with fellow travellers whilst sipping on the house-special, the G13 caipirinha.
The hostel also attracts lots of other hostel guests and locals, as the garden area is a unique spot in the Pelô to relax and charge up for more action.

Great breakfast is included and the staff are very helpful and friendly and organized our airport transfer for us. Room was spacious and clean. The hostel has a sister restaurant ´`Zulu` which serves good food at reasonable prices and gives a discount to those who stay in the hostel. Location is in a good safe part of town and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

We loved this hostel! From the moment we arrived, the staff were helpful and friendly - giving great suggestions for things to do, handy tips about Salvador and the best events of the evening. The hostel is in the perfect location - right in the heart of Pelourinho and within walking distance to bars, restaurants, theatres, samba and capoeira classes and many of the main sights in the city. Despite being in the middle of the action, the hostel feels safe and secure. The dorms were cleaned every day and were nicely spacious, with lockers for valuables. The breakfast was amazing and available until 12, which is always a bonus! There was a really friendly and relaxed atmosphere, allowing us to meet lots of other travellers. The team at Hostel Galeria 13 helped us to make the most of our experience in Salvador - a great place to stay!!!
