Best hostel breakfast I’ve ever had. Staff were very kind and attentive. Rooms were nice, clean, and the bathrooms were very pretty with constant hot water (but remember to still be water conscious). All for an excellent price as well - Would highly recommend this hostel to anyone coming to Potosí!
