Nice property in a good location a little outside the main center of the town. Safe and a few good restaurants nearby. Service was good. Bathrooms were tiny though and there was no hot water in the sink. Overall pretty good value for price though. I would stay there again.

Great place, will stay again

I was there for a week whilst working and it was a great little hotel. The room was clean and comfy and the breakfast was much better than you would usually get for this price. I liked that water, coffee and mate was free and available all day. I could sit and work in the evening in the comedor with a mate. The internet was good and the staff helped with anything I needed. There isn’t a restaurant but they helped me order via Uber eats when I didn’t feel like heading out. Don’t try and get there on foot if you’re struggling with altitude as it’s all up hill. Generally it’s well-located in Sopocachi.

Horrible

There were no Taxi's that would go to where the hotel was located because of a March going on that day. When I phoned the hotel, I simply wanted to know what my best alternative would be to reach the hotel due to this situation. The lady at reception kept saying that I didn't have confirmation for pick-up with Tinka. That was besides the point. I simply wanted to know my best alternative in arriving to the hotel, since transport was not possible by Taxi. Reception kept putting me on unnecessary holds. Then, proceeded to continue saying I did not have a confirmation with the hotel Taxi. I know that! I just hung up on her because there is no reason to keep speaking. Nothing was being resolved. After 45 minutes, I found a Taxi company who was willing to drive me to the hotel. I was tired, having travelled all the way from Isla Del Sol. The room they gave me, had no windows, it was freezing with no heat, until I went to reception to grab a heater. But, I was only able to run it for 30 minutes due to the heater being that of gas, and dangerous, especially with no windows. I felt like I was confined in a prison cell. My bed had bugs on it. I found a roach and pincher bug on top of the sheets. I had to clean it before I went to sleep. When I woke up, I found more bugs on top of my sheets! Very disgusting!!!

Cheap stay in convenient location

Tinka is located within sopacachi, close to various restaurants. The staff was very helpful and nice. The hotel is quite run down compared to the pictures. The paint was peeling off a section of the wall in the room and the shower stall floor was chipped all over. If you’re looking for a cheap stay with decent location this would work. If you are big on cleanliness, this may not be the right fit.

Hotel was ok

The hotel was on a steep climb, so if you are not accustomed to the altitude it can be exhausting. The bathroom had a broken toilet seat. It was supposed to be smoke-free room, but the smoking patio was just outside the room, so my room was always filled with smoke.
