Buena ubicación con personal amable. El baño del cuarto tenía un olor bastante malo que hacía que la habitación apestara incluso después de limpiarla. Las camas superiores no tienen acceso a enchufes y sería bueno tener un lugar para colocar cosas. Pero aún así lo recomendaría, buen ambiente y linda área exterior

Had a great stay at El Urutau. Everyone who worked there was super friendly and lovely. Shout out to Alejandro who cooked and hosted an amazing asado dinner for everyone in the hostel - was super fun! Dorm was clean and location is good & safe - bit of a walk to the town centre but it’s right by the bus stop that takes you straight to Iguazu Falls and close to many supermarkets.
