    Tap is in the room and heavily dropping, only 1 small trash bin is provided

    Clean, close to everything, there is an option to have breakfast on site, and also there is a nice bakery next to the building wit gluten-free options as well.The manager is helpful.

    In all my 50 years of traveling the world, this place has moved to my #1 (absolutely). Never before has a room (#8) been so completely quiet - no barking dogs, roosters, car noise, guest noise, loud neighbors and music. Even the ceiling fan is silent. The bed was huge and super comfortable. The most peaceful sleep conditions I have ever had. Excellent location - close to my favorite restaurants and shops. Warm shower. One block to the beach. Friendly staff and good food.

    The location was perfect and the atmosphere cozy, but what truly made our stay unforgettable was Dimitri. He didn’t just do his job—he genuinely cared. His warmth, kindness, and willingness to go the extra mile touched our hearts. People like him make all the difference. We’re so grateful!

    At night, people came who made noise and disturbed sleep without a staff member to calm them down.

    Not only is there no coffeemaker provided in the room, there is even actually a rule against making coffee in the room. I've never heard of such a rule anywhere in my travels. Not a huge problem, just odd. Our balcony view was of tin roofs, but not every room can have a good view.

    Older building but well-constructed and maintained. Restaurant downstairs. Quiet location a few blocks from the more active parts of town. Friendly and helpful owner.

    Did not feel super safe walking solo late at night.

    Short walk to filthy friday at selina hotel, lots of restaurants and shopping within walking distance. Clean, comfortable, and cool hotel. Perfect for a solo traveler or couple. Unfortuently I did not eat during my stay, however the menu and pricing looked good with 20% discount for staying.

    I have stayed here several times now, so that should say it all. The rooms are clean, have air conditioning, and private showers for a price that is tough to beat. Dmitry, is always friendly and helpful, and the food is excellent. The location is great, everything is within easy walking distance including the airport, water taxi, and many restaurants and things to do. I will be back when I visit Bocas again.
