Mamallena Panama City

Staying at this hostel was an absolute delight! The staff were incredibly welcoming and went above and beyond to ensure a comfortable and enjoyable stay. The amenities were top-notch, from clean and cozy rooms to a well-equipped common area perfect for relaxing or mingling with fellow travelers. The real stars of the place, however, were the resident dogs and cats! They were so friendly and added a warm, homely vibe to the entire experience. Whether you’re a pet lover or just looking for a cozy and inviting place to stay, this hostel is a must-visit. I can't wait to return!

Rudeness. I find the staff very rude. Why do you have to point your fingers at me when you talk to me. Ask me the same question when I already answered your question. Pretend not to speak English, so that I can waste my time with a Spanish translator. Staff speak good English. Don't let them fool you. I was there Jan 11-17, 2025. I'm not going back.

stayed here one night on a layover. staff was super friendly. rooms were actually pretty spacious. the whole hostel was very warm, but the rooms had a/c so it was mostly comfortable, just a little warm on the top bunk when going to bed. lots of hangout areas and a nice kitchen. the friendly dogs were the cherry on top.

I had a really good stay for a very affordable price. Rooms have ac and windows. Multiple toilets and bathrooms spread around the hostel. Each bed in the dorms has plugs. Rooms are spacious and some of the bathrooms too. Staff is friendly and helpful. Recommended.

We stayed a few days in this hostel and overall our experience was not positive. Some of the staff is very rude (especially one very disrespectful lady). They cancelled our reservation for our last day without telling us, forcing us to sleep in a dorm instead of a double room. They never apologized for that but instead said it was our fault (as we didn’t know our dates of travel...). The kitchen is way too small and full of people at diner time, ustensiles and pans are very old. There are 3 dogs locked inside, they never go for a walk and look very depressed, they bark super loud many times a day in the kitchen area. We saw them pee and poo near the pool area as they are never taken outside the hotel and there is often a very bad smell in front of the rooms downstairs. The pingpong table is nice but only super old rackets and broken balls so unusable. The atmosphere is very bad here so we would recommand staying somewhere else.

Not great. Room lacked amenities (hand towels, bath mats) and had problems with water supply. Overnight AC was nice. Not sure why they allow dogs to sleep in the hostel as they bark in the morning which is impossible to sleep through. Location is pretty bleak, other than one or two convenience stores nearby. Wifi, while free, was poor. There a better hostels at similar price points.

Perfect vibes, really safe, nice people at the reception, pet-friendly, good location, and amazing common areas. This hostel is my favorite in Panama City. You can also leave your languages for free in the storage room if u are a client. I highly recommend it. And last but not least: bathrooms are so many and always clean!!! 😌🫠🤗

Brilliant hostel for a great price. Staff are all so lovely and excellent English is spoken. The kitchen is very well equipped. The garden is a really nice place to chill, plus there's a little pool. The beds were comfy and, despite the location close to everything, no outside noise disturbed us at night. The air conditioning between 9pm and 9am was glorious. A great night's sleep was had. WiFi was really good too. Also there are dogs and cats and I love dogs and cats :)
