Additional transaction fees may apply for local residents. Guests may also be subject to additional taxes, which may vary by city and hotel. Information about the fees charged must be clarified with the accommodation facility. At begining of street, Rua Tavares Bastos, there are white Kombis (Volkswagen Type 2s) with a blue stripe for public transportation that can take you to the hostel for a cost of R$ 3,50. Due to the high heat and high altitude of where the hostel is located, this service may be favorable instead of walking all the way up with luggage. It is public transportation so payment will need to be made directly to the driver.
