We had a great stay here. The owner is very nice and helped us with all our questions. We could even leave some of our bags for a week with him, when we went to the Amazon and stayed again afterwards. The breakfast was included and alright for the price. The rooms were very nice. I can definitely recommend staying here.

“Great”
Great place to stay with spacious room. We were allowed to use one of the rooms for a bit longer and check out late as we had night bus to Sucre. Much appreciated!

“It was great”
Rodrigo was very helpful. I have made a mess with my booking and he sort everything for me without any extra charges. He also arranged pick up from the airport as I have arranged middle of the night.

Rodrigo was exceptionally accommodating throughout our stay and was always available whenever we needed assistance. We had made two separate reservations at the hostal because we were away for two nights climbing Huayna Potosí, and he kindly allowed us to leave our belongings in our room for a small fee so we didn’t have to move everything out and back in again after the climb. He was also incredibly knowledgeable about La Paz, offering great advice on the best places to exchange cash as well as recommendations on what to see and do in the city. On top of that, he arranged our Huayna Potosí climb for us and even coordinated for the guide to pick us up directly from the property, which made everything seamless. The room itself was very comfortable, and the breakfast was excellent, with eggs, bread, spreads, cereal, juice, fruit, and coffee included each morning.

One lovely hotel in the centre. Comfy bed. They manage my taxi to the airport early morning. Hot water was bit tricky but worked good.

“For the price there are better places”
The view from the room was great and the room itself was huge, the breakfast was also very good. They kindly let me check in early, which was welcomed after overnight bus. Hot shower.

The hostel is in a perfect location super close to the Witches Market and lots of meeting points for tours in La Paz. The rooms are clean, comfortable and some have an amazing panoramic view of the city! We enjoyed our stay so much that we ended up booking the hostel twice. But what really stood out the most was the kindness and helpfulness of Rodrigo who made us feel safe, looked after and supported even before we checked in (by helping us to book our airport transfer) all the way to helping us to find alternative transportation to leave La Paz when there were road blockages. Thank you again for all your help Rodrigo!

“A wonderful stay”
Cute little hotel right near the witches market, location spot on to explore the area and even have a couple of little shops outside for all your snack needs. Hotel manager Rodreguou (sorry I think that’s it) has shown nothing but kindness and flexibility in my stay. Room is spacious, huge bathroom, city view
