Amazing Hostel!! We had the best time ever and did not want to leave. The Hostel itself is safe and very clean, Showers are HOT, Dorms are exceptionally clean. Entertainment every night in the bar, its a great way to meet people and l can promise a night filled with laughter and fun! Credit to both bar staff and reception staff, both are helpful and super friendly :) Allready looking forward to returning - overall this Hostel is a winner!

A great party hostel, had some good times in the bar! Stayed in the Penthouse (room P, it's at the very top of the hostel), as mentioned in previous posts, a few flights of stairs away from the nearest bathroom, but no major issue. Beds were comfy, it was quiet in our room when we needed it to be, and the bathrooms were scrupulously clean every time. Showers hit n miss with temperature, but same as everywhere in Bolivia! Great food, great parties, and very helpful in-house travel agent.

Make no mistake, this is a party hostel, it can and does go off anytime, most of the time. That said, it is clean, the staff are caring, friendly and knowledgeable, it is in a central and safe part of town, the showers are hot and the beds are soft.

The hostel is amazing. Very nice location, staff very helpful and fun. Safe and 24h reception. Bathroom were sooo clean. Nothing to complain about that. Just the wireless is awful. They should improve their wifi internet.

Beds great, bathroom clean and hot water! we were in a 4 bed room and was on the top of the hostel, so it was hard every time we wanted to go to the bathroom = 2 floors. The room was cold also. It's definetely a fun hostel, people don't even go out, just stay in the bar and have fun there. Good place to stay, but avoid the 4th floor. One complaint, we did a reservation for a week later, and they told us would get back to us in an email, they never did,so we went to LOKI as Wild was sold out.
