Jaguar House

Cochabamba


The whitewashed paint job and sunny courtyard gives Jaguar House a cool Mediterranean-style vibe. Its rooms are comfortable, if basic. Service is hit-or-miss, as front-desk staff are often newly arrived guests just learning the job. Loungey common areas; best for those looking to socialize and party. No towels provided in dorms.
