Quiet hostel, welcome relief from busy streets of La Paz! Good advice from staff, particularly Ruben. Rooms clean and comfortable. Breakfast extra but good value. Showers warm rather than hot but this seems to be the norm in Bolivia. Would recommend staying here.

Friendly staff, short walk from main bus Stn, big fluffy towels, quiet, spotless, nice sunroom to chill in. However, lacked atmosphere as barely saw another guest, our room was a chilly walk 2 floors up from the toilets. Showers were Luke warm (found one I would call hot on last day) but because so low pressure & shower room similar temp to outside an overall cold experience - but its bolivia. No wifi. Internet for b$1 per 20 mins. Room cold, no heaters available but extra blankets available

Great little B&B / hostel. Expensive for Bolivia, but still cheap! The staff are brilliant. Super friendly and super helpful. Breakfast not included and the kitchen is pretty tiny, but Bolivia is cheap so you find most people eat out anyway. Great location, near the bus station and the main tourist streets, this is a great little hostel, a home away from home.

Nice decor and helpful staff. Breakfast not so good. They have a DVD-Player and tons of Movies. Kitchen well equiped. Lots of Internet-PCs (extra charge) and a nice store where you can buy water, beer etc. for good prices.

My score for this place might have been a lot higher had I have not caught a virus on my sd card from one of the computers, which means I've lost a whole load of photos from my south America trip. However the place was excellent value for money, with clean rooms and super clean communal bathrooms. Great location,'near bus terminal and main city centre attractions. Friendly staff too. Great place - just don't put your camera cards in the computers. And bear in mind that they don't have wifi

Family friendly, super clean and fantastic facilities. But the best bit is the staff. Rueben and his family are so kind, helpful and go out of their way to ensure you have a great stay. The only downside- there is no wifi, but there is access to Internet. But we would highly recommend this place. Thanks again Rueben!

Its home away from home! Felt really comfortable there and met loads of like minded travellers. The staff were really friendly and always there to answers any questions and give tips about the dos and donts of La Paz. All and all a brilliant place. Thanks Reuben!

Really great little place to stay! Reuben was fabulous, very helpful and friendly. Clean, quiet and located close to the bus station and the town center. Good showers. Well equipped kitchen. It's a nice little haven in such a busy city. Don't use Lonely Planets map if you're trying to find it, its not correct.

An sunny oasis right in the city centre. Amazing location, wonderful staff. Not a party place for sure; much better. Everything you need in a city like La Paz. Thanks again!
