Hostel Pantanal Backpacker - Adults Only

Breakfast

I have travelled a lot over the past few years and this hostel by far is the worst I have ever stayed in. To start, it is filthy. My bedsheets had a dead bug smeared on them whilst my friends had a tinge that could be likened to blood. The toilet leaked, so whatever was flushed ended up on the floor. The pool was closed during our stay, not fore warned. But above all, the tour agency side of this hostel was the most disappointing aspect. We asked for recommendations of where to walk around the city. 4 out of 5 of the places recommended were closed. Game over! We also booked a Safari with them. It wasn't a Safari. It was a 12 hour van journey to look at birds and alligators. That's it! A waste of a 2 day itinerary. Our luggage was stored behind a largely unmanned desk also. Very secure! We were fooled by their welcoming demeanour, but these people need training and the hostel needs a revamp or to simply shut it's doors.
