It's probably some of the best value for money if you want a private hotel room (not a dorm bed) in Panama City that's located in a safe, central neighborhood.

“Good value and good location”
Large room with a big bed. Sparsely furnished but comfortable enough. Good bathroom. The hostel and the neighborhood are quiet. Located in a pleasant mostly residential neighborhood, with many restaurants and shops nearby. A bit far from the main tourist spots, but easily accessible by metro. Good value for a short stay in Panama City.
