Reviews of Hostal Nomba

08 January 2012 Customer would recommend this property

Liked: Some of the staff are good. Nancy is excellent. Their vibe is okay.

Disliked: The thing I really dislike is the fact that the tours at Nomba are definitely more expensive than at other hostels. For example, the hot springs tour here was I think either 25 or 30 dollars, whereas we did it with another Hostel on the square for 15 dollars. Plus the rafting here was 85 dollars and we saw it for 65 elsewhere for the same tour. I don´t think a hostel should make such a large margin on a tour where they clearly pay the staff involved soooooo much less (if the other places can do it for half the price, where is the rest of the money going?) Apart from this, the value for money is reasonable, the hostel is pretty secure.

Liked: A great little hostel with laid back vibe, especially in the hammock lounge! Great coffee and pancakes for breakfast. In a good location in centre of Boquete town.

Disliked: Could be a bit cleaner and the kitchen is very small for the number of people who could be staying.

Liked: The staff were so helpful and sociable they really made our stay special. Boquette is small so there is no bad location. Hostel Nomba is just off the main street so you have the added security of a quite location and no strangers. Garden/ hammock area is gorgeous and they have bikes & lots of games. It was a great hostel with great staff and free pancakes. Just don't expect the furnishings to be 5*.

Disliked: Nothing

28 June 2009 Customer would recommend this property

Liked: The room was quaint and the common areas decent. There's a stocked kitchen to use and beers for sale. However, the the walls are thin and you can hear everything. A few dorm beds are actually IN the kitchen area. It's not the best pick in Boquete, but it's decent.
