SALCAY HOTEL — Hotel in Uyuni

This is a basic hotel that offers a portable heater in the room (which is great as it’s cold in Uyuni). The lamp was broken but the heater light was bright so balanced out. There’s a small tv in the room and hotel offers a basic breakfast on the top floor. It did get noisy at night and the mornings especially when people were coming late back as they lock the reception doors and in the mornings but I was located by the stairs - I think if you were further in then you might not hear as much. I arranged an airport pick up as I arrived late in the evening (arranged the day before) but they forgot so I had to get a taxi. Lucky in Uyuni taxi have fixed rates of day time 10bob or 15bob at night to go to the city centre. Hostel is well located (there is a long corridor before you get to reception). There is a market on Thursdays which sells everything and close to the bus station. They don’t speak a lot of English here but they were nice and tried to be helpful. I booked my day trip to the Salt Flats here too which was reasonable.The shower was ok - I felt the water was lukewarm but having the heater...

I would not stay in Salcay hotel again. The room was shabby without heater and night lamp even though these were supposed to be included in the price. The staff did not speak any English. Toilet seat was broken and when we showered the entire bathroom was flooded as you are practically showering right above the toilet. When we complained we were moved to another slightly better room. There was a night lamp but sparks were coming out of a socket when we plugged it. The wifi worked but apparently only our phone could not connect according to the staff. However, this was the only hotel where we had problems with the internet. No variety of food for breakfast and when my husband loaded a plate for both of us he was told by a very rude member of staff that he took too much.
