talking about the receptionist, although he
is
friendly) and the mirrors are the brightest
things in this otherwise slightly tarnished and smoky, yet wholly adequate, '80s-style
place. East-facing rooms are the best, and decent solar showers should keep you warm
come bath-time.

) Tune in and drop out! This '70s pad truly is a paradise lost with
red vinyl-studded walls, painted murals and funky wallpaper. Darker rooms at the back
are a bit dingy, but the higher and lighter front rooms afford stupendous views over La
Paz, making this a solid budget bet.

This place hasn't been refurbished since the '50s, and it's pretty beat down, man. If
it weren't so damned cheap, we'd boot it from the topic.

Hotel España $$
(
244-2643; 6 de Agosto 2074, Prado; s/d/tr B$190/270/360;
) This place is a bit
like a great aunt - friendly with a colorful personality but ever-so-slightly worse for wear.
It's a slightly overpriced colonial place, with a lovely, sunny courtyard and garden, and
worn rooms. It's an easy stroll to many of the city's best restaurants and nightlife spots.
Rates include cable TV.

Calle Santa Cruz 359, Rosario; s/d/tr incl

) Calling yourself Majestic won't necessarily make it so. And
while its pink bathrooms, smart parquet floors and cable TV provide some distraction
from the dirty baths and stanky-like-a-field-mouse rooms, this is one of those last-ditch
choices that's good for a night and not much more.
