Beautiful view from the hostel, as wi everyone on the island, did not spend much time at the hostel but I got a room to myself and enjoyed a good night sleep in the comfy bed. The woman in reception was lovely and although I didn't try them, the surrounding restaurants looked good.

We found this place to be good value for money, but are happy to pay a premium to book online. We stayed only one night to go hiking on the island, so didn't make extensive use of the bathroom facilities. If you're leaving early in the morning (for example to catch the 11.30am or 1.30pm ferry from the north of the island), pay up the night before so that you don't have to wake your hosts up!

Good hostel in Copacabana, very clean, very good view on the lake. A little bit expensive compare to the bolivian prices...

This is a nice hostel. If you want a quiet night and a nice room then this is the place. The directions say "just up the stairs" but it is much more than that. Once up the main set of stairs, you then turn right and continue climbing for about 15-20 minutes. The view from the hostel is amazing, but just be prepared for the stairs. The staff are great and help in anyway they can.

It's a very quiet place (at least when I was there) but it's nice and well located. The bathrooms are very basic though (the shower is just a keg of cold water and a bucket to use) and that's too bad there isn't hot water (I talked to some people that were staying in others places on the island where there was hot showers !). Kitchen is very basic too and if you want to cook you have to pay as well...

The hostel wasn't so bad, but the other hostels around offer the same conditions for half the money, the only problem is that you can't book them online, because they don't have sites... And yes, the "hot water" is more like "not freezing cold water"!

Bad localization, flushes that not work, cold water, unprepared staff. Mala localización, sofocos que no funcionan, el agua fría, el personal sin preparación. Not worthy.

Diirections given are misleading. It is one of the furthest away hostels and hard to find. There are no lockers so make sure you have a lock for your bag. If you want to do an early check out, make sure to pay the day prior or be prepared to wake up the staff. The bathroom facilities are standard for Isla del Sol. Most toilets on the island do not flush and it is rare to have a hot shower. It is a little expensive for the facilities and service given.

Weil... it is not going to win the best hostel award but it is understandable since acommodation in Isla del sol is not very high standard. Nevertheless we had a great time and Martin, the guy who runs this hostel is super friendly and helpful.

Everything on Isla del Sol is located on top of the hill so the location is not the fault of the hostel. Bathrooms were not in that good condition.
