Algo mejor pero eso no es problema porque los tuk tuk cobran la misma tarifa, pero no vi lugares cercano para comer, dem
Pros:

Trato amable del dueño

Cons:

Exceso de ruido de la calle a toda hora y una construcción al frente, tuvimos que pedir cambio de habitación porque era imposible descansar lo cual se pudo evitar y haberlo echo desde el inicio. El agua salió negra x completo por lo que bañarse o lavarse lo diente así era imposible

Great place for a short stay; better if you have a car
Pros:

Owner is friendly and helpful. The place is simple but pristine, peaceful and comfortable. I booked a bed but had a little nook with curtain and two single beds to myself. Nice view from the rooftop. They provide free towel, toiletries, free spring water, coffee and tea. Great value for the money.

Cons:

The location is a bit far from the center, so I relied on Tuk Tuks (tiny taxis) to take me to/from the lake and center of town. That added Q20 to my daily budget. They no longer offer breakfast for purchase and there aren’t cafes nearby. The only restaurant (for lunch/dinner) nearby offers great food but is quite expensive.

Recomendado!
Pros:

El silencio y la tranquilidad del lugar era lo que necesitaba después de días de mucho movimiento. El dueño es muy amable y atento a lo que necesites. Y lo mejor de todo, sin dudas, es la cercanía a maravillosas playas a minutos de caminata.
Sin vuelvo a Pana, vuelvo.
