02 March 2012 Simon would recommend this property

Liked: Gool value for money and the location is pretty good, since it is in San Felipe, the old city of Panama City. Its around 10 $ (one way) to get to the Minaflores Locks at the Panama Canal by taxi. Only the lockers could be larger!

Disliked: Simon left no negative feedback.

16 December 2011 Simo would recommend this property

Liked: Great place, nice character, helpful staff! Small common area but a nice balcony makes up for it, besides there's loads of places nearby. Free internet, didn't see / use the mentioned free towel, though. Dormitory space used very efficiently, but the open doors to the balcony are a luxury not often found in this price range. Good value.

Disliked: Everything went well.

11 December 2011

Liked: If you want to see oldtown, then location is excellent

Disliked: We booked private room and our room had no window. Ok, that was`nt so bad but there was kind of hatch on the wall. It was high enough so we were not able to check is it close or open or what it is in overall. But in the moment we were laying naked on the bed, the hatch were opened from outside and people were looking into our room :) Well it was`nt the highlight of the trip, so we decided to change a hostel.

14 October 2011 Matt would recommend this property

Liked: The staff was great! Always somebody tending to the gate, felt very secure. You get what you pay for, it's small, so so kitchen, so so toilets, so so beds but it's cheap, safe and close to stuff in the old town.

Disliked: The kitchen is very small and there were almost no utensils or plates, noted there was only two (2) deep plates and 7 people wanting to cook. Hot water wouldn't hurt. Lockers in the rooms would be nice. You should go for a small bar next to the kitchen were the tables are, some lights a stereo and sell some drinks and the place would have lifted!
