Wow! This place is the most beautiful from all the Bambuda’s. You can see it’s recently renovated. The rooms are spacious and comfortable, the main area is lovely!! There is a kitchen and the staff is very helpful. It’s not in the Main Street but you can walk there in 10 minutes.

Everything was perfect - warm welcome, answer to every question and help at every matter. The room was equipped up to the smallest detail with everything a traveler needs, the common area was cozy, clean and very useful, excellent laundry services and the amazing morning coffee was the icing on the cake. Excellent and quiet location a short walk from the center. warmly recommended! Especially for mature travelers who are looking for a quiet and quality place, away from the noise and bustle.

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.
