Stefany went way above and beyond what a hostel host should do. She was kind and welcoming and so helpful with me after my phone was stolen in Ecuador the day before I arrived. I cannot thank her enough. The hostel is clean and comfortable and I would 100% recommend this place.

Emplacement parfait lorsqu’on visite la ville à pieds et en transports publics, grand choix de restos et tous services à proximité. L’endroit est un havre de paix et de tranquillité au milieu des gratte-ciel. Je n’irais pas ailleurs!

All hostels in Panama City

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

Super friendly hostel in great location. Very close to a Rana Dorada craft beer joint and a cheap yet tasty pizza shop. Very near the front, if you want to walk/jog/run along the boardwalk.
