Its a good tier 2 school. Good location, nice social life, CoL is low. Its a very "average" and typical example of a school that functions well given its demographic. Bolivia is a fun place, and social opportunities are pretty easy. The students, parents and administration is what youd expect. Academics are the priority but the students are generally bright and well resourced, no one has to try to hard to succeed.
About the only persistent complaint is that globally the money isnt anything special. You can live well in the region on the local economy, but if you have outside obligations or need to live more on the "Apple" economy things get hard very quickly.
