良い、また利用したい
Pros:

ここに３泊しました。
こまめに清掃してくれて綺麗だし常にスタッフが居るので何か用事がある時に助けてくれました。
シャワーは建物の老朽化はあるもののお湯が出たので問題なし。
ドライヤーもスタッフに言えば貸してくれました。
ツアーで朝の出発が早い時も朝食を用意してくれた。
テレフェリコの駅にも近いです。
隣がクラブなのに静かで騒音はなかったです。

Cons:

カプセル内でWiFiが使えなかった。
チョリータレスリングのツアーを110ボリビアーノでお願いしたけど、他の参加者は90ボリビアーノしか払ってなかったのでここでツアーをお願いすると高い事が分かった。
女子カプセルの部屋がトイレが2つある内の1つがカギが壊れてた

Cool capsules but too dirty to stay again
Pros:

1. Excellent location, a step away from anything you could possibly need.

2. Very polite staff.

3. The capsules are gorgeous.

Cons:

There was a serious mold problem in the bathroom of my dorm and it was disgusting. All over the shower and even the sink (photos).

This is probably because the cleaning is lazy and not done at all sometimes.
Out of my 4 nights, the dorm’s bathroom was cleaned once. There were two days straight where nothing was done, the showers were gross full of hair and simply disgusting out of dozens of people showering everyday.
I actually decided to not shower twice because I was so grossed out.

There wasn’t any soap for people to wash their hands, EVER, they simply don’t have any. Toilet paper would run out constantly, I had to go to front desk to let them know because we completely ran out of it, one toilet without any for a whole day and night.

They say they have daily housekeeping which means they change the bedsheets of check outs and remove the trash out of the dorm’s trash can. That’s it, they don’t even sweep daily, you could find the same trash in the bathroom’s floor as the night before.

The capsules look clean overall, but look at the corners and it was filled with old dust and other pieces of dirt.

Freat value. Facilities could improve, slept very well. Simple breakfast on a premade food tray.
Pros:

Very comfortable bed. Great privacy. The noise from the club outside doesn’t filter into the dorm. I’d still recommend earplugs in case someone in the dorm is moving around.

Cons:

The showers had some mold and a fishy smell wafted from the drain. No soap in the hand dispensers the entire time I was there. Some of the plastic steps to climb the bunk were broken and I almost fell in the night. The staff kindly removed it immediately once I mentioned this.

Pros:

Las cápsulas son muy cómodas, con buena iluminación y son muy amplias.

Cons:

Estuvimos en la habitación doble con baño privado y del baño salía un olor horrible que cada vez que entrabamos en la habitación nos golpeaba. La habitación es grande pero no hoy ni una mesa ni nada donde poner las cosas, estan los lockers pero son incómodos . Ya que es una habitación privada y hay espacio de sobra para una mesita. Y lo peor (aunque no es culpa del hostel pero afecta directamente) es el bar/discoteca que hay debajo, hay musica fuerte incluso lunes por la noche. La verdad que era bastante complicado dormirse.

Linda experiencia. Para repetir.
Pros:

La cápsula es gigante, muy cómoda y preciosa. Tienen todo lo necesario. Es espectacular. La ubicación es excelente.

Cons:

Muchas veces faltaba papel higiénico o jabón en el baño. Además no había una toalla para secarse las manos, o papel aunque sea. El desayuno muy flojo. De todos modos volvería.

Pros:

・立地が良く、安価で朝食付き。
コストパフォーマンスは非常に良い。
・スタッフは英語対応可能で親切
・高性能なドライヤーの貸出有り
・各部屋にトイレとシャワーがあるので、便利

Cons:

・深夜の出入りが多く常に騒がしい。
・イヤホンを付けない人もいるので、非常に耳障り。
・タオルは有料
・ボリビアーノで支払う場合、レートが非常に悪い。$1=6.9BOBの時、$1=9.5BOBを提示されました。（高額米ドルはお釣りがないので注意!!）
・共有スペースは綺麗ですが、各部屋の掃除が行き届いていないのが、非常に残念。

Ubicación de 10!
Pros:

Ubicación excelente a precio accesible! En el prado paceño tienes transporte a todo lado y cerca tiendas restaurantes y cafés.

Cons:

La entrada es un poco silenciosa y en fines de semana hay una discoteca justo en la misma entrada que incomoda por el ruido y gente que hay justo al lado del hostel
