Muito boa
Pros:

O La Casa de Doña Cata não poderia ter melhor localização, simplesmente fica na Praça Central de Baixo Boquete, perto de tudo: dos restaurantes, dos bares, das agências de turismo, dos mini mercados, do parque da cidade, da feira central e o terminal dos ônibus que levam a David/Chiriqui fica na esquina da hospedagem, a poucos metros de distância.

Cons:

A área das duchas (chuveiros) poderia ser um pouco melhor.

Pros:

The staff here were very welcoming. The shared areas were pleasant. It is a pleasant place to wake up.

Cons:

The only real downside of this place was the extraordinarily loud club next door. It isnt the hostel's fault, but the music is quite loud and goes till late. It isnt just the kind of background noise of staying in a lively area. It is loud enough that it is hard to sleep till the club closes.

Pros:

Все хорошо за такую цену

Cons:

Забронировал с 4 кроватями, а заселили в комнату с 8 людьми. Обещали что завтра переселят с 4 людьми, но не переселили. Кофе только до обеда, потом заканчивается

Pros:

Emplacement, les espaces communs sont confortables et cuisine bien équipée

Cons:

Les chambres qu'on vous attribue ne sont pas les mêmes que vous avez réservé sur booking (et refus de nous attribuer la chambre réservée par la réception)
Seulement deux toilettes pour tous les dortoirs et chambres... ça fait peu

Pros:

V ubytování máte k dispozici kuchyň a je zde taky hodně míst (koutů) k relaxování či společného setkání s partou lidí. Blízko centra i obchodu. A výborné výchozí místo na výlety a turistiku.

Cons:

V pokoji jsme postrádali skříň/komodu k uložení věcí a také víc háčků k pověšení např. mokrých ručníků.

Convenient central location, but not a lot of amenities.
Pros:

Location was super convenient, right in the middle of Boquete across from the park. Shared refrigerator for guest food. Chill vibe.

Cons:

It's a hostal. Rooms are pretty small with not a lot of amenities, like not even soap in the bathroom. Definitely no A/C.

Pros:

Good location and fair price. Room was quite ok and had a fan. Close to the bus terminal. Good info on nearby tours. The lady with glasses at the reception is quite friendly.

Cons:

I always had cold water in the shower despite the fact that it supposedly has hot water. Extremely noisy at night. I couldn’t sleep even with my earplugs on. Unfriendly staff member who made a huge deal when I asked her for a blanket.

Fuyez !!
Pros:

Super bel hostel. Lit en dortoir à changer. Cours arrière très jolie. Nous pouvons y fumer.

Cons:

De 10h à 18h il y a de la musique provenant du café/bar collé à l'édifice. De l'autre côté de la rue, un parc où la musique fait trembler les murs jusqu'à 2h du mayin.
Le comble, dès 6h du matin 2 employées nettoies l'hostel et se parlent tout le temps.
Emplacement et employées un gros zéro
