3 of 5 stars Reviewed 26 April 2013

Thankfully we only spent one evening in this lost little town. We had such bad luck with the weather which meant we didn't spend much time by the falls, and had to fill the rest of the day wandering around a quite frankly run-down left-to-rot area. The hostel itself is OK, no real complaints there. You get what you pay... More

I understand that weather can truly impact anyone's experience anywhere. In the early spring, the weather can be "dreary." Also, none of the main summer attractions are open to divert your attention from the lousy weather if you are unfortunate enough to have it. Niagara Falls is an interesting town; no big lights, no glitz, but lots of history not... More

Stay here for a layover night, but still received very helpful comments from the owners to see the fall in night (you can't miss it)! At the first glance it may be very off from what you expected if you are expecting a starred hotel, but it is absolutely one of the best hostels I have stayed. Great atmosphere, too.... More

We stayed at this guesthouse for one night in March. The owners were very friendly and helpful and gave us lots of information about the Falls. We had a private room, which was very comfortable. The pancakes for breakfast were freshly made and tasted delicious. We had a car, so we didnt have to walk, I guess it would have... More

A very nice small house hostel, I was collected from the Amtrak station by Andre for a small fee of $5 which is far cheaper than a taxi, all the local services and shops were also pointed out on the drive to the hostel. On arrival I met the other half of the duo, Carroll, also just as friendly and... More

During my quick trip to photograph the beauty of Niagara Falls I stayed at an enchanting backpackers hotel, sometimes called, hostels. I encourage those who want a more personal stay to include Wanderfalls Guesthous & Hotels as a part of their adventure. In addition to the the hospitable staff(husband and wife), the hostel is a short walk from all the... More

I enjoyed my stay here. I have stayed in many hostels in Europe but not as many in the US. The owners were very helpful, and the waffles in the morning were fantastic. The rooms were clean and spacious enough, and overall the house was very nice. We were about 5-10 minute walk from the park. I was going back... More

I stayed at Wanderfalls for 4 nights over Labor Day weekend and would have to say this is one of the best youth hostels I have stayed in. It is spotlessly clean with owners who are very helpful in planning time at Niagara falls. Carroll helped me a lot over the phone when I called before I booked, and I'm... More

My sister and I stayed at Wanderfalls for two nights while visiting Niagara Falls. Would totally recommend for individuals looking for a cozy, friendly environment. Carroll and Andre were very friendly and helpful (free pancakes for breakfast! whoopie!), always checking in and providing great information on what to see around town. The house itself is perfect for hanging out and... More

Carol and Andre were extremely helpful in helping us around the area with directions, taxi rides, and driving us themselves. This hostile gets a little hot in the summer time but that is to be expected and there are fans in the rooms. They have hot showers and a fully stocked kitchen. We had a great time there meeting other... More

Just a nice house in a quiet street with a lovely veranda. Inside a real kitchen (with everything to cook your own diner, not just a microwave) and a sitting and dining room with plays and books. The room with the two bunkbeds for the three of us was spacious. In the morning we learned how to make our pancakes... More
