    There is a kitchen for cooking meals, however, it is terribly equipped, pans are beyond any reasonable usability, there is no cutlery nor many other kitchen supplies. Also, there's no coffee maker I was able to cook some eggs but only after asking a local friend to bring her own stuff.

    Prices were pretty good, however, make sure you are renting a room with air conditioning, as the cheaper ones don't have any and I did not see any upfront information about that, meaning I was upcharged since being in David without it is madness.

    I stayed here just for a night to be able to get bus to Costa Rica early next morning. There was a party I could here from my room and the hostel worker offered to move me to a new room because of the noise. Very clean room and spotless bathroom, thank you

    The rooms seem to me a bit small for the price. Still not so bad though. The bathroom and entrance need some carpets or mats.

    The place is close to many amenities. It has nice vibes plus it is very pet friendly. You can cook there and eat out side or inside the room. View is nice. They have a very friendly dog. You can buy there some items so you do not have to go out if you do not want to or have them delivered.

    The shower didn't work so well and there's no hot water - for the cold and rainy days hot water is needed :)

    The hotel is a in a quiet street away from the center - it's safe and within walking distance/taxi away from most places. The room was super comfy and the lady on reception was really helpful. The water was out in the whole town, I really appreciated her being honest about it at check in and giving me water until it came back on. The kitchen was well equipped and the whole place was clean. Good budget option!

    The small window from the room faced directly onto the common area and and when someone was talking there it was very audible. The room was very stuffy, the fan didn't help much, although it was quite fresh in other places. The bed creaked; there was no wardrobe in the room, only shelves under the bed - very dusty. Only one lamp on the ceiling, no night light on the nightstand - this can be changed for more comfort. The electric socket did not work - I had to stay a couple hours longer in the morning to charge my phone and powerbank (important for travellers!)

    Cute place with kitchen and green patio. Very welcoming and friendly staff. I probably should have chosen another room - with air-conditioning and own bathroom.

    Animal abused. But stay was simple but okay.

    The property was okay. however my main complaint which really bothered me was the fact they had a very nice and cute dog. But he was neglected and abused. Chained up. Given no attention. I released him and the women pulled him by the neck put him outside alone the whole night with no food. Abuse 100%. If you have a dog you need to take care of him. I felt so sad as he was so cute and so friendly. In the morning he was crying for attention and to get out. So I let him out to run around. If your interested in selling or me adopting the dog please WhatsApp me on +447867866860. I won’t stay again due to this. Will return to see if I can adopt/ buy the dog. I encourage anyone who loves dogs to not stay here until they resolve how they treat animals. Because guaranteed it will make you sick. Contact me about the dog as you clearly don’t take care of him well.

    Property was okay. Had all the basic things. No hot water

    We couldn't get not even a cup of hot water to make tea the morning, so we checked out and went to Boquete.

    Stay here only to make do and don't expect to get much sleep.

    The bad: Mostly "locals" stay here and if you have traveled in Central America, you know that respect for those who might like to sleep and trying to be quiet is not part of the culture. Slamming doors, telephone conversations on loudspeaker, loud music and watching memes (no one uses headphones!), talking loudly (no one ever whispers), running cars and slamming car doors. All that early in the morning and some late at night. The "quiet hours" of midnight to 5am are very telling (who only wants to sleep 5hrs a night?). The disrespect is very infuriating, if unintentional. If you are lucky, everyone leaves at the same time in the morning and you can doze off again afterwards. The rooms are small, furnished ok, with one towel rail, if no hooks. WiFi is ok if frustratingly slow: don't plan any online meetings. Communal kitchen: you can make do, it's sparse and in desperate need of a thorough deep-clean. In all, overpriced for what it is!

    The Good: - nice staff - very clean rooms & bathrooms - cute dog that loves cuddles - suitably aloof cat that tolerates a cuddle and lives in a basket on reception - available parking (though I don't think they close the gate at night, so not entirely secure)
