Everything was newly renovated, air conditioning in the rooms which was essential. Staff were friendly and very accomodating to all inquiries. The food was exceptional - honestly would stay here again every time I am in Bocas Town.

The location is nice, near center of the town, and it is convenient to go to the central city. Surrounding shops, restaurants, bars are plentiful, locals live. The room facilities are sufficient. The water pressure was small and not very warm.

The rooms were spacious with the AC and water working perfectly! The Italian owner was very friendly and helpful with activities in the area. The kitchen is well stocked and the free coffee in the morning is a nice touch. The courtyard social area is beautifully painted and a nice place to meet other travellers staying there. Great location, very central in town but away from noisy bars so you can sleep well.

Great location and if you like to party it is the perfect spot to meet new people. Also, everyday new activities and you should make sure to be at the Filthy Friday party (everyone around is coming and the whole hostel is packed!).

The location is perfect, just one min away from Bocas town. The hostel got a lot of potential, keep in mind is a party hostel so it's very loud, but if you are looking to meet new people this is the right place.
