Average hostel with all the basics you'd expect for this price range. Beds are not overly comfortable and you have to get up very early for hot water showers.

Lots of people everywhere at all times, but all quiet enough. Very relaxed atmosphere. We had two young ladies come into our room during the night (with their own key... More

Hostal La urraca is a charming house surrounded and threatened by huge buildings. I´t s an excellent and cheap option to stay in Panama City.
