One of the bests hostels I have stayed so far. Big and clean rooms with proper beds. Linen and towels included. Clean bathrooms (and enough amount of it). Really good breakfast - scrambled eggs + sausage; bread + cheese, ham; choice of fruits, good coffee and juices. Breakfast open since 7am which is also great plus compared to other hostels opening from 8am or later.Nice pool (too bad it was to cold to swim). Excellent location - 5 minutes from main bus station. Friendly stuff. Simply the best!

Staff were helpful but only one spoke English. My room was never cleaned for the 3 nights I was there, not even the bins emptied, the garden was full of construction material, & all the loungers were broken.

Nice hostel. It's not posh but its really clean. The staff are fantastic and helped us with all of our questions. The room we had was silent at night and we had some of the best sleep we've had on our trip. AMAZING breakfast with just about everything you can imagine available!

Good place where to stay. Rooms are clean and private, breakfast was great and staff really nice. Brilliant location, close to the bus station and supermarket . In the city there isn't to much to do but still a good spot for visiting the falls. Recomended

Excelent location. Good return value / money. In the other hand, what's needed here is: POSNET to accept credit or debit cards; a wardrobe or clothes rack with hangers.

Would definitely stay here again. Very clean. Great staff. Seemed more like a guesthouse than a hostel.

Staff were very helpful and informative. I would stay at this hostel again. To better the hostel I would suggest providing the ability to pay by debit or credit card rather than having to pay cash. Further , the pool does need some work to ensure its water is clear and general purpose electrical outlets within the shower recess are not safe and should be removed. Otherwise a very good hostel.

Located near the downtown bus station, supermarket and many places to eat. Good staff, clean rooms. Good place to stay in Foz do Iguazu.

The hostel is pretty good value for money. The breakfast was really good and the place is kept really clean. The manager is also a really awesome bloke and extremely helpful. The big knock on this place is that there are no lockers. Also there is a pool but it looked very dirty which was a shame given how hot it was. In addition it didn't seem like much of a party hostel but given you spend all day at the falls maybe this isn't the worst thing.

In January 2012 we had a two-bed room. Enough spacious but there was no more furniture except our beds. The hostel could be advised only for its close location to the bus terminal from where you can easily go to the airport, Itaipu, waterfalls, Paraguay and Argentina.

Wifi strong, breakfast good. Staff are great, can book buses etc for you. Knows all about the falls. Some don't speak English, some do. Air con in room didn't work, and no lockers in the room. More like a family guest house than a hostel. But it's cheap, a few blocks from the bus station and is all you need for a good place to sleep. One block from the bus to the falls. Don't come here to party, but you're in Iguazu for the falls, not to party!
