Youki Haus Hostel

The hostel is in an older house, shared bathrooms. 3 total with 2 showers. This is inadequate in the morning rush. The location is adjacent to 2 busy streets with truck and bus traffic from early to late. It is a pretty nice facility, good beds, hot water showers, marginal but adequate water pressure. My single room had a loft bed, which was kind of unique.

The location just around the corner of Parque Rodó is good considering the Montevideo old town is a rather gloomy place especially after dark. By contrast Rodó park is adjacent to Ramirez beach and the more modern and comfortable parts of town are close by. Tres Cruces bus terminal with link to the airport is 3 km away. After having stayed at two other very noisy hostels in the city, Youki Haus managed by a German-French couple, is quiet and if there is a complaint about noise, they know where you are talking about and solve the issue. Moreover, there are several spaces like a living room and a roof terrace where you can retreat. The kitchen is well-equipped and never dirty! The hostel managers are always around to address any queries or just for a chat. Really very social people, as well as the other members of staff. All facilities like hot shower, toilets, WiFi worked well. Spanish, English, German and French fluently spoken by the management.
