HI Paudimar Falls Reviews

Hostel with a very nice atmosphere! The staff is friendly &provides you with good advices. You can book a transfer from the hostel to the argentinien site of the Iguazu waterfalls, including boarder formalities. I meet in HI Paudimar only people in the age 20-35, most of them backpackers. We stayed in the second building and had a nice private room with own bathroom. Breakfast consits of coffee, tea, juice; bread with jam, cake and fresh fruits - nothing special but okay for the price!

Rude & unknowledgeable staff

ben was an absoult star planned everything for us from the moment we got there bus tickets activities and even pointed us to the best place ever to eat am still thinking of that bbq place was sssoooo good, he even organized for us to go out on the water and go tubing down the river of paraguay argentina and brazil was so much fun!! i think this may have been a trial but it is a def must do!!!

The public area is huge and good but the rooms and the beds are terrible.

Filthy cold showers!!! Ants in the room! Unfriendly staff!! Good location! Overall poor standard of hostel and wouldnt recommend!

Good: location, location, location...and price. Also some staff is friendly. Bad: There direction to there place were wrong and cost me a taxi ride. No free internet. Haphazard record keeping. Take-it-or-leave-it attitude of some staff and walk up three floors to room. Too small common area. So-so breakfast. Tried to greatly overcharge me on my bill from what had been agreed upon ( but I believe just a genuine record keeping mistake on their part). Does not take credit cards.

This is probably the most run down hostel I've seen out of the 20 places I've stayed at in Brazil. The place is in sore need of renovation and doesn't come close to meeting the standards of other HI hostels in Brazil. The bedrooms and bathrooms are falling apart. It's a shame because the place is huge and has a pool, game room, backyard, and bar area. If it was actually renovated it could be one of the better hostels in Brazil because it's basically a self-contained resort.

Lovely big room (we were in a double across the road). Well organised excursions to see the Argentinian side of the falls.

Great hostel - I definitely recommend staying there!
