Great Place
Mango Tree is a great place to stay. Very clean, best beds, great breakfast, so close to the beach.

I stayed at the Mango Tree during carnival in its first week of opening and loved it so much that I went back at the end of my trip two months later! Lance and Ingrid couldn't have been more welcoming and accommodating. They offered excellent advice about clubs, bars, and restaurants and were always willing to go the extra mile. Breakfast was great and the hostel has the best location in Ipanema -- right next to Poste 9 and in the middle of lots of shops and restaurants. I also don't think that I have been to a cleaner hostel. I highly recommend it as the place to stay in Rio.

The Mango Tree was a great home base for exploring Rio and experiencing Carnival 2007. Though the hostel had just opened the week we got there, things were well run and comfortable. Ingrid and Lance and their team were all very friendly and helpful, the rooms (I stayed in a en-suite, but saw several other rooms as well) were acceptably clean, and the location in Ipanema is perfect for accessing all the sights and scenes in Rio. One of the Mango Tree's best features are the several nice common areas in which to meet and get to know other guests. Since I was there during Carnival it was way expensive, but I understand the prices are much, much kinder during the rest of the year. Also, in a city that is known for being a bit dangerous, the Mango Tree felt like an oasis of safety.
