Don’t be blinded by the pool!

Review of Hotel La Siesta
3.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed 3 Jun 2023
Really basic hotel but we were attracted by the pool as it is quite warm during the day.
I didn’t feel particularly safe in the area after dark and took Ubers when going out. It was noisy until well after midnight and I could hear the neighbouring rooms walking around and going to the toilet! Didn’t sleep well as someone kept trying to come into our room. Probably not the hotel’s fault as it sounded like a drunk guest. It is close to the cathedral though and the staff were very pleasant.
Date of stay: June 2023
Room Tip: Book somewhere else!

Basic b&b just a few minutes walk from the main square. Simple rooms with a/c and bathroom and even English CNN. Decent firm bed. Very small bathroom (not convinced we had hot water).

Basic breakfast with make your own coffee and only scrambled egg as hot food (not even a toaster). Nice on-site pool which is perfect after arriving in Santa Cruz’s muggy heat.

Great hotel.

The man at the reception was very motivated and helpful (actually in Bolivia there are some blockades in big cities). We got hints for open supermarkets and he drove us also by motorbike to the airport.

Good rooms, nice pool area.

The hotel is small and cheap. The bathroom has a cold water tap and a device for possibly heating it. The lobby and computer area are adequate, but the rooms are quite small and not appealing. The breakfast is simple.
Easy walk to the center of the city. Small staff.

I stayed here for 2 nights, it was horrible!! Got there, the reception is nice, but the room I stayed was humid and smelly. I turned the a/c on and it was broken. After a couple of hours there the room was infested with ants!! I called to reception to asked to be moved to another room, I was told that they couldn't!! I was supposed to tell them before I was in the room!! REALLY!!!
I made a big stink about it, and they finally changed my room. Had no luck with the new room either. I was bitten by Mosquitos!!
At check out I asked if there would be a discount for the inconvenience and they basically laughed in my face.
If you are looking at this hotel, DO NOT!!! Stay here. This should be a one star hotel!!! Horrible service!!!!
