Nice property in a good location a little outside the main center of the town. Safe and a few good restaurants nearby. Service was good. Bathrooms were tiny though and there was no hot water in the sink. Overall pretty good value for price though. I would stay there again.

Lovely little hotel in a quiet area of the city. They arranged for a taxi to pick us up from the airport which was very helpful. Lots of shops and restaurants within walking distance. Highly recommended.

Great place, will stay again
I was there for a week whilst working and it was a great little hotel. The room was clean and comfy and the breakfast was much better than you would usually get for this price. I liked that water, coffee and mate was free and available all day. I could sit and work in the evening in the comedor with a mate. The internet was good and the staff helped with anything I needed. There isn’t a restaurant but they helped me order via Uber eats when I didn’t feel like heading out. Don’t try and get there on foot if you’re struggling with altitude as it’s all up hill. Generally it’s well-located in Sopocachi.

The staff were very helpful. Breakfast was adequate and standard South American fare. My room was above the kitchen so it was a little noisy. Overall a pleasant stay.

Horrible
There were no Taxi's that would go to where the hotel was located because of a March going on that day. When I phoned the hotel, I simply wanted to know what my best alternative would be to reach the hotel due to this situation. The lady at reception kept saying that I didn't have confirmation for pick-up with Tinka. That was besides the point. I simply wanted to know my best alternative in arriving to the hotel, since transport was not possible by Taxi. Reception kept putting me on unnecessary holds. Then, proceeded to continue saying I did not have a confirmation with the hotel Taxi. I know that! I just hung up on her because there is no reason to keep speaking. Nothing was being resolved. After 45 minutes, I found a Taxi company who was willing to drive me to the hotel. I was tired, having travelled all the way from Isla Del Sol. The room they gave me, had no windows, it was freezing with no heat, until I went to reception to grab a heater. But, I was only able to run it for 30 minutes due to the heater being that of gas, and dangerous, especially with no windows. I felt like I was confined in a prison cell. My bed had bugs on it. I found a roach and pincher bug on top of the sheets. I had to clean it before I went to sleep. When I woke up, I found more bugs on top of my sheets! Very disgusting!!!

Cheap stay in convenient location
Tinka is located within sopacachi, close to various restaurants. The staff was very helpful and nice. The hotel is quite run down compared to the pictures. The paint was peeling off a section of the wall in the room and the shower stall floor was chipped all over. If you’re looking for a cheap stay with decent location this would work. If you are big on cleanliness, this may not be the right fit.

Hotel was ok
The hotel was on a steep climb, so if you are not accustomed to the altitude it can be exhausting. The bathroom had a broken toilet seat. It was supposed to be smoke-free room, but the smoking patio was just outside the room, so my room was always filled with smoke.

I arrived at 0100 which isn't check in time yet. I was really tired. The staff was willing enough to let me check in early. They had a room ready for me at that time of the day. Awesome.

Very good budget hotel.
Basic and no frills hotel but clean and with the most wonderful staff. Breakfast is included and adequate, Wifi is good, and really good value. They're very flexible with check in and check out times. Arrived before 8am and was able to have breakfast and checked into my room right away. My friend who picked me up from the airport also got a free breakfast.

Good stay but need better beds
I arrived very late and was given the last room available, on the first floor. It was a huge room with two twin beds. It can be an issue with the noise of people eating breakfast right next to it or the tv on in the sitting area. The first night I slept in one of the beds and it was the most uncomfortable bed ever, there was no padding whatsoever. The second night I slept in the other bed and it was better, but worn down. The shower took a bit to get hot but it does get hot thankfully! The service I would say is the best part of the hotel. They were very accommodating and helpful during my stay. It was also a quiet residential neighborhood which was nice, but some walking is required to get to main attractions.

Simple hotel
Relatively basic hotel 25 mins from the center of La Paz. Breakfast was simple but had enough variety to make it filling. Stayed there twice and each time there was an overpowering smell of wood varnish that gave me headaches. Would stay again but they need to stop polishing the floors while there are guests there
