O Sorriso do Lagarto

O Sorriso do Lagarto, though located in a residential area of Belo Horizonte - savassi / sao pedro is also close to most bars and the best nightlife in the city.
The staff is totally laid-back and make you feel like you actually live in the house. They speak portuguese, spanish and english and always help and give good advice when you need it, even when sometimes the manager would just leave the place and let the guests all by themselves - and it is always good to know you are trusted and the owners do not need to keep watching you..
It was fun we indeed checked-in and registered people who showed up with reservations, fixed them with linens and beds and gave hostel info when the phone rang while no staff member was there.
The hostel has a full kitchen and there's at least one supermarket nearby. They sell beer from a fridge in TV room but that's something you can get cheaper next corner.
There are separated male and female dorms for 6 (about USD 13 / BR 23 including linens and breakfast),4, 3, double and single rooms. Bathrooms are shared.
We were also offered a free place in the 2 car garage but wind up parking in the street as there was always a parking spot.
It is definitely a great place to meet other travellers from all around the world and make new friends; even more recommended if you're travelling alone.
We met people from Australia, Russia and different States as Pernambuco, Rio Grande do Sul, Sao Paulo..
