This hotel is brilliantly located, just off the main square and directly opposite a fantastic restaurant. The building is lovely with a really nice central courtyard. The rooms are quite drab with dated decor but clean, comfortable and, most importantly in Potosi, warm! My room was very quiet as it overlooked the central courtyard. Breakfast was the most limited I´ve... more

Choices of decent accommodation seem quite limited in Potosi, so we were happy enough with this place. The location was excellent, just off the main square. It wouldn't represent good value in most other towns in Bolivia though. Our room was small and a bit tired, but it was clean and the heating was excellent (very important in Potosi at... more

good location and not expensive but very small rooms, even smaller bathroom and as others have pointed out, limited breakfast. nice building and underutilised courtyards. a serious reno could make this a very nice place to stay. take it easy in potosi- the altitude makes life tough. more

Good value

We got the room next to the reception, and it was ugly, a bit claustrophobic and right out to the main street, which mean we were kept awake all night by dogs in the street. staff was medium friendly, but a bit sleepy. i would find somewhere else to stay more

Great place!

Great place, this is very hard to find in potosi because of the limited availability of hotels. The hotel is clean and private. Great location, and great service. Definitely the best choice in Potosi! more

The choices are limited in Potosí, but this is a nice little hotel. You can´t do better for location--half a block off the main plaza and close to restaurants, cafes, sightseeing, etc. The building is colonial and has two charming courtyards that the rooms look out on. The rooms are basic but very clean and well-maintained--no peeling paint, grungy tiles,... more

Large and decent rooms. Very clean and comfortable. Breakfast is a misery (some bread with butter + jam and tea !) more
