  My friend and I stayed here during our week stay in the city and absolutely loved it. It was super affordable, but still had clean and cozy rooms. I would definitely recommend it to anyone traveling through Panama City. It is a great deal!

  Excellent location and one of the best staff members I've met. A little bit expensive though, but seems to include all hostels in Panama City.

  Very disappointed to arrive at the hostel, tired and hot after an early morning flight to find that the hostel had no private rooms available and would not honor our reservation. This was incredibly inconvenient as backpacker accommodation is in short supply and high demand in Panama city, and it is necessary to book at least a few days in advance to avoid getting stuck with less than ideal lodgings. A few days later we made another reservation 4 days in advance at La Junga through HostelBookers, as we thought the hostel seemed friendly and clean and had believed the staff when they told us it was a one off error. Unfortunately, when we arrived at the histel at around midday on the day of the reservation our room was again unavailable and the hostel refuse to honor the reservation. Again, this was incredibly annoying as we had been camping in San Blas for 4 days and were looking forward to a shower and the room waiting for us! When at the hostel we met another couple who also had the hostel refuse/unable to honor their reservation made on HostelBookers. It does seem clean and friendly from the reception area but we do not recommend that you book online!
