I was surprised to read so many negative reviews after staying a night in this place. It's as cheap as you can get in Copacabana and must surely be better than some of the ramshackle excuses for accomodation along the main strip. The family here were all incredibly friendly. They didn't speak English but why should they? We left our... More

We got dropped off outside this hostel and before we really knew what was going on we were hustled inside. It is clean and basic so we just stayed. they advertise free wifi but they kept giving me the worg password and were then trying to blame my laptop, when I suggested I press the button on the router to...

For 30 bolivianos and a single room I thought I couldn't go wrong... I definitely could. After getting up early for Isla del sol, I attempted to pay for the one night's stay. Big problems. The owner was adamant I'd stayed for 3. 15 minutes later we'd cleared things up & I was on my way to the sunny island.... More

The hostel is basic like most of the places in Copacabana. However we went there in Jan (summer) it was quite cold in the room and shower was far from being hot... The price for the room with private bathroom was comparable with other hostels. The Senora (owner) was trying to be helpful but she didn't speak any English. We... More

The rooms are basic, the same as all the hostels in that area. But they charged us double the amount we were told when we checked in, saying that the price they had given was per person, so be aware of this. The room next to us got broken into by someone who apparently had a key and received no... More

This hostel is a little strange! When we arrived, the lady in charge said she had a room available and took us upstairs, where we then had to wait (with our rucksacks on our backs!) whilst 2 boys finished cleaning the room. The room was large and clean, but we could see from a distance that the bed sagged, and... More

This hostel is relatively clean, although our room really stank of petrol! The lady who runs the place is nice enough, although we had a strange late night visit from her and a young boy who insisted on coming into our room to check the toilet was working properly, while my girlfriend and I were in bed. Also we were... More

We paid 50 bol. for the 2 of us with private bathroom. It was clean and quite, except in the morning when we could hear the mass in the church, but not very disturbing. It was also clean and the room was big enough. As usual in the budget hotel, the shower was not really warm. One of the cheapest... More

We really enjoyed Copacabana, and Hostal Emperador was as nice as the other places we´ve stayed in Bolivia. Service with a smile, quiet location (although several blocks from stuff, but we like walking), clean but basic rooms, luggage holding service for free when we went to Isla del Sol overnight. My only complaints were the showers - like many in... More
