Dirty, horribe place. We had a twin room for one night. Place looks like a dumb. Unfriendly staff. No toilet paper in entire hostel. Spartan hard beds. Bathroom doors are broken; cannot be locked. Drains of the sinks in the bathrooms are blocked.

I wish I never found it... The staff were not friendly, actually rude. The hostel and especially the showers are dirty, but hey - how will they get cleaned if staff is watching TV all day. No toilet paper in the toilets. Wi-Fi is so horrible, it is non existing. There's a PC in the reception, but they charge to... More

No hangout area. Rude reception staff. Feels like a maze and seems like undergoing construction work as there was lots of trash around. My double room was fine for me, if you've been to south east asia this was "luxury". But my friend hated it and thought it smelled... I didn't. I guess it depend on your standard level. The... More

Unless you are looking for a party and dirtiness, don't go there whatsoever...unless you are totally desperate, even, you're better off sleeping on a park bench. Trust us, we've seen a lot in the last 6months traveling around! Dirty, dirty, dirty, that's all..! And don't count on doing anything with the horribly slow wifi here! Other guest don't seem to...

Terrible hostel. No atmosphere whatsoever, unhelpful staff, dirty and uncomfortable rooms (mine had a used condom on the floor) and barely-functioning bathrooms. Only plus point is its cheapness, but it's Bolivia - for more or less the same price you can stay in dozens of much nicer hostels around the city. Avoid.

Amazing building at the city center, but doesn't have good vibes. Personal is rude. We booked a triple room and payed a deposite and on arrival administrator told us that there is no room for us, only double room with one bad. Finally they fixed it, we had our triple with broken door lock. SKYPE is not allowed, internet is... More

Stayed here for one night after a long and exhausting trip for Uyuni, and despite the cheap cost, it really was "skankville central". The rooms were basic, poorly maintained, and the place was full of waster gringos boasting about their drug-habits and travelling anecdotes. The bathrooms were awful too....

After reading in Lonely Planet that hostel amigos was a "backpackers haven" we were extremely dissapointed with this hostel. sucre itself is lovely but this hostel is not. the rooms are relatively average but that is to be expected with backpacking and although the rooms were tiny and a bit dingy the beds were comfortable. however, the bathroom was disgusting....
