Reviews for Cilos Hotel

Review 1:I arrived at 5pm and my room hadn't been cleaned so I couldn't check in. Staff were unapologetic. Despite advertising hot showers from 8am - 10pm the receptionist told me there would only be hot water from 7pm - 8pm. I went for a shower at 7.30pm. There was a small trickle of what could optimistically be described as lukewarm water. After 3 minutes this turned off leaving only icy cold water. (However, another guest said she had a lovely hot shower in the morning so maybe just my bad luck).

Review 2:Spacious and comfortable rooms. Good breakfast.

Review 3:Staff seem to show little interest in their customers. Cleaning is done very superficially. Entry to shower extremely dangerous, one could easiliy fall on slipprry surface as there are no shower curtains. Hot water is not always available. Breakfast is served rather late, only from 8 o'clock onwards.

Review 4:Spacious rooms with a fair price on the outskirts of Uyuni

Review 5:Not necessarily terrible but the place is on the outskirts of town so for dining options a taxi is necessary even in such a small town as uyuni.

Review 6:For Bolivia, the place seems newer. Everything was mostly as expected. Breakfast was large and very good, a little better than we expected.

Review 7:The bed was not very comfortable. The staff was nice but there was not always someone there, and it happened 2 times that i came back to the hotel and there was no one to open the front gate, so i had to wait on the street that some resident of the place who had the key came back. Finally, the location is quiet but pretty far from the center, so keep in mind you will have a 25 minutes walk in dusty streets or a 4 or 5 bolivianos taxi ride each time you want to eat something or need anything, as there is absolutely nothing around this hotel.

Review 8:The price, the breakfast, the cleanliness.

Review 9:Location was about 20 blocks walk away from city centre.

Review 10:The breakfast was great! An egg, coffee or tea, cereal, yogurt and bread with butter and jam. Colourful rooms, nice staff, don't speak English.

Review 11:Location is a little out of the way but someone will always ring for a taxi for you!

Review 12:Very friendly staff! Room was fine and the beds were super comfy. A little cold at night but just ask for a heater. Would really recommend staying here. Internet worked perfectly, even in the room.

Review 13:The staff are really slow at opening the gate when you arrive. We had to wait out in the cold for about 15 minutes with our heavy bags on our shoulders, while the lady said she's coming (we rang her up 3 times during the 15 minutes). But she was otherwise a nice person, just a bit slow.

Review 14:The warm shower, that's available from 8 a.m. to 10 p.m., is excellent! The water was actually hot, and the speed was really good and it felt so comforting to have a nice hot shower after so many days, as Bolivia generally doesn't have good showers!

Review 15:A little far from center but just 4 bob with taxi.

Review 16:Everything is so nice. Owners are so friendly. They organized for us a daily tour to Uyuni. Hot showers. Breakfast is so good.

Review 17:There's a building site beside the hotel which makes it very noisy. Dogs barking all night. Cheap polyester sheets that slide off the bed during the night! Owners wife very unhelpful

Review 18:Good wifi & hot shower which are hard to come by in Bolivia! Nice breakfast. Clean & safe

Review 19:10-15 min walk into town - quite isolated so food difficult unless you don't mind a walk but with children that's not always an option at the end of a long hot day.

Review 20:good wifi, nice breakfast, good beds

Review 21:It was a little bit outside of the center and no shops nearby but it is only 10 Bolivianos in a taxi so we didnt mind.

Review 22:The staff although didnt speak much English, were very helpful. Rang up a pizzeria for us to get it delivered to the hostel that night, and a taxi the next morning. Wifi worked well, breakfast was good! Perfect place for a night before or after the Salt Flats tour!!

Review 23:- nothing! Highly recommended.

Review 24:- good breakfast - really nice and helping staff. - good localisation, calm, not in the center, just 10 minutes walking - new and original style

Review 25:Breakfast is poor, far from airport and bus terminal so you need taxi but there's no taxi outside the hotel!!, towel smells bad, little cold in the room, Ahhh your friend or family can see what you do in a bathroom.. no privacy.. A bathroom door is not only opaque but see-through glass lol

Review 26:Hot water. It seemed hotel was renovated recently. Not bad to take a shower and go sleep. Service is not bad

Review 27:The property is literally on the edge of town, but for only 5B it's a quick taxi ride to the center of town. I would definitely pay for the taxi instead of walking.

Review 28:Can't beat the price for a private room with bathroom in Uyuni. Friendly staff, hot water, good wi-fi and very good breakfast. Perfect place for a night's stay before or after the salt flats.

Review 29:The area is very dodgy & unsafe at night (told by locals); dark rooms.

Review 30:This place is way cheaper than any other on booking,com in Uyuni. However I'd wouldn't book any place in advance next time.

Review 31:Our shower didn't warm up very well, but we got in late so I was too tired to ask about it.

Review 32:Beds were comfortable and warm blankets. Our room had a private bathroom. Free wifi worked great. Breakfast was good.

Review 33:Staff wasn't too helpful. First they messed up our reservation. Then they tried to get rid of us by turning the WiFi off. Shower wasn't really hothot.

Review 34:We were in Uyuni for carneval, so we were glad to have a hotel a bit away from the centre. Breakfast with fresh scrambled eggs.

Review 35:Is located at 15min walking from downtown.

Review 36:The staff is very helpfull, the hotel is clean, and looks new. Good value for money, given Uyuni overpriced hotels.

Review 37:The light wouldn't turn off in the bathroom without killing the electricity of the whole room. There was hair in our bathroom when we arrived, the staff was very cold, the wifi was terrible, breakfast is rationed.

Review 38:The beds were comfortable.

Review 39:breakfast was never on time so i didnt get to eat it my last day and it was really just bread anyway.

Review 40:really nice large bathroom with real unlimited hot waater

Review 41:It's a 15 minute walk from the centre, so a bit isolated.

Review 42:Cheaper than most places in town, beds ok and check out until 11:30. As long as you don't mind the walk into the centre, the value and reasonable facilities makes it decent enough for a few nights.

Review 43:-The room had a very bad smell of sewage. -I asked for laundry and they told me it would be ready at 4h30, but at 5h everything was still wet. So I had to leave the town with a big bag of wet clothes.

Review 44:It was quite clean. The bed was comfortable.

Review 45:When paying for wash it's $B18 per k but if you have less they still charge the same, saying the machine is big though they this it in w other stuff anyway as evidenced by the bits of thread left clinging to my jeans, so, a bit sneaky there. The breakfast was not great, plain white flour tasteless rolls, margarine made of lard, icky jelly an egg that you have to know to ask for, juice that was more sugar water than anything and tea or coffee. Frankly I would have left a tip bigger than the wash fee except I felt they should have been upfront about that.

Review 46:The location is 10 blocks from the center, which for me was fine as the center is gringolandia for sure. There are small shops and local restaurants closer. The Internet connection was stellar. The first night I was in a room with a double bed and a twin, very nice for $15. Then I went on a two night tour, they gave me a room w twin beds when I returned w slippery sheets, ok but not as nice as the first room. They were very accommodating to switch my reservation around though so I could do the tour. They watched my 1/2 things while I was gone.

Review 47:Based a 10/15 min walk from the centre it is perfectly located for a decent night sleep. Very secure, behind gates the rooms are comfortable and clean and the showers was hot! Can't as for more when in need of a decent night sleep after a long tour. Very quiet at night but also very easy to get into the main centre via walking or cab. Be careful not to get ripped off by cab drivers it should be 3-4 bolivianos per person max. Negotiate before you get in the cab.

Review 48:Decor. You do feel like your in a old 50's motel.

Review 49:Wi-fo is better then expected. I have had worse in Bolivia. The place was safe, and clean enough.

Review 50:Very hard to find, surrounded by stray dogs that aren't always too friendly. Bathroom hadn't been properly cleaned and smelled of sewage.

Review 51:The staff were able to check us in in the middle of the night. The bed sheets smelled great.

Review 52:The facility is gracious and comfortable, with knowledgeable and helpful proprietors. The price is right, too, in a town of high accommodation prices. The location isn't perfect, since it is on the edge of town, but it's an easy walk to the center. I recommend the place highly and would not stay anywhere else.

Review 53:The WiFi is so poor.

Review 54:Friendly staff & delicious breakfast. The hotel location is far away from the center of Uyuni, but this make it so quiet and silent.

Review 55:The place is currently being renovated so there's a lot of building work going on, so it was noisy into the evening. Out of town but a cheap taxi ride into town (or 20 mins walk).

Review 56:Welcoming and helpful staff. Nice spacious courtyard layout and common areas. Secure site and (padlocked) rooms.

Review 57:Location. Actually not far from center but uyuni is very small town so i feel little far from center.

Review 58:Good breakfast. Hot water. Bath. Big room. Good bed.

Review 59:Shower was VERY COLD and electrocuted me - but this was a common occurrence in Bolivia, you'll see!

Review 60:New place, our first taxi driver didn't know it but second did, close to centre but not actually in it. Clean, helpful staff, good breakfast.

Review 61:There isn't siphon in the shower, because of it you felt a little sewage smell. Exterior door is locked with padlock. I never saw such a breakfast. You have to ask the chef for food. Later you come near window and take it. Breakfast wasn't good.

Review 62:they have a place for the car.

Review 63:Warm showers only between 8am and 10pm. Staff was very bland/uninterested/not so 'happy'.

Review 64:Breakfast included, nothing fancy but some bread, scrambled eggs. Wifi available. Clean.

Review 65:Water dripping from the roof of my bathroom when someone upstairs used shower. No cloth hangers. No luggage space in room. Bad installations. Poor breakfast. Bad Location. Mostly no free City shuttle, just a taxi call. You can walk to City Center 1,2 km along dirt, dust and dogs.

Review 66:New facility. They tried to integrate some nice decoration.

Review 67:Very dirty bathroom, staff were particularly unfriendly and unhelpful in every encounter, breakfast was slow service and very basic. A good 15 minutes out of the centre - there are plenty of hostals/hotels closer.

Review 68:Comfy bed, had a bath in our room (although not very clean!)

Review 69:Wi-Fi was pretty weak, but that's probably normal so far out in the wilds! Right on the edge of town, too far for me to hike with my gear, but when the taxi from the centre is only 3 bolivianos, it's not a problem.

Review 70:Room was comfortable, staff (the owners, I believe) were very helpful, breakfast simple, but good. Hot showers between 8am and 10pm were plenty hot enough. Well worth the price.
