Staff were super helpful friendly and cute. The location was awesome, no way¡¡¡ two block away from every important place. The hostel itself is really cool but stairs that are too hard to go up at this Bolivian altitude, everyone was really happy to chat and go out as a group. If u asks the staff they really can help you out (I lost my passport in the bus station). There's a bunch of games and DVDs u can watch for free. They give u a map that they point out where everything is. It is strange som

First I doubt to make a booking for the reviews, but then I did it, I said how bad can be? but it was great, very good staff, location, cheap food, cheap lundry service, fancy tv room, in south America it is perfect (it´s a hostel not a 5 star hotel), so I recommend it to all .

Do yourselves a favor and don't go there! The staff are not nice and helpful. The toilets and bathroom dirty and no hot shower in any kind!! If you're getting one of the rooms in the road side you're going to suffer every morning(waking up very early because of the noises and sun). You can find a better hostel in the center in lass money.

The location is about all that this place has going for it, staff were more involved in looking after their own friends than the people staying at the hostel. In fact the staffs friends are the only thing that make this a party hostel, even waking you up at 5 in morning to crash on any vacant beds available. The place is generally dirty, especially the showers. But your bed is made every day which is very nice. There are no facilities so you'll have to wait 15 minutes for staff to boil water.

Uninterested staff, smelly sewers (although probably can't be helped) and far too noisy (staff and their friends, not guests). In other words, if you want a party hostel, go to wild rover/ Loki, much better set up!

Positive:Hostel looks very nice, a lot of places to chill and the bar upstairs is nice and there is a program every night. Breakfast is poor. Negative: We didnt felt very welkom and the staff is chaotic. The bins at the toilets were to full at every night, and the showers were most of the time without hot water, which is a must in the freezing la paz.

It was a clean hostel, and secure because the door was always closed so you had to ring the bell. Only the ceiling seemed to be about to fall down :S
