ericb Posted December 4, 2007 Share Posted December 4, 2007 I stayed in two hostels in La Paz and loved it right in the center of town. If you are lokieng for high end, Iycannot help you. I was there for work so stayed in hotels...maybe more than you want to spend, but would think if you were only staying a couple nights, it might be worth spending a bit more on a hotel room...especially if you have gear. My only recollection was don't stay in El Alto....it's pretty scary. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ryland_moore Posted December 5, 2007 Share Posted December 5, 2007 Agreed. Stay in La Paz. El Alto has a ton of crime. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlpineMonkey Posted December 5, 2007 Author Share Posted December 5, 2007 Im looking for a place that I and one other can stay for five weeks or more. That means it needs to be cheap, but I want it to be secure. I also want a place that stores gear while your gone for no charge. If they speak english that is also a plus. In Peru last year I stayed at an enlish speaking place, 5 dollars a night, hot water, private room and bathroom, free gear storage while gone in the mountains. And they were very friendly and helpful. I want something similar to this. Any recomendations would be helpful. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JonMW Posted December 7, 2007 Share Posted December 7, 2007 I stayed at Hotel Continental in July 2004. Nice, cheap rooms, shared bath w/OK hot water (those electric deals that only heat the water on super low flow), could store gear when I went to Rurrenebaque for a week. Maybe they have rooms w/ private bath. I paid ~30 Bs/night. It's on Illampu north of the witches market and next to a traffic circle. I highly recommend the Amazon trips out of Rurre if you have time although this time of year is super hot and rainy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
