Hostel El Machico Hostel
AV 5a B Sur, Casa 2 . , Bella Vista, Panama City, Panama – Great location - show map
nice staff. accommodated late arrival and wasn't crowded

The place is simple , but very comfortable. All the staffs are friendly and helpful.

The bed was comfortable and the shower was clean and got really hot. What’s best is there were outlets by every bed for charging and air conditioning was a plus. The pool was cold but really nice to sit by and socialize. Beer was $1. The staff were great and very attentive. I brought a can of tuna that needed a can open and they didn’t have one. So one staff member opened my can with a knife and the other one went to buy a can opener for later. My tuna heroes!

Very nice pool area, the staff is very friendly and the rooms are clean. The activities they offer are great. I especially recommend to go on the bike tour.

The property itself was very nice, nice bar, nice pool.

The staff and the guests were super friendly. Made new friends there!

The hostel was nice with large area to relax and a pool. Self served breakfast was a plus. But you have to pay 2US for a towel :(

The atmosphere is great, the pool, the breakfast, the decoration, the hammock and the staff of course.

staff were so friendly. they were extremely helpful and accommodated changes to bookings where possible. pool was great and met so many great people here. would definitely recommend!

Such a relaxing, lovely place to stay! The cleanest hostel too. After staying in the Selina this place was a breath of fresh air, with soul. I can’t recommend enough!
