Location was excellent, with comfortable beds and all the required amenities in good working order. Perfect for our 3 night stay. It’s a 5 min walk to a good size supermarket, 15 mins to the main ‘downtown’ Avenida with restaurants and the mercado. 3 amazing hikes to the top of the ancient caldera, and the butterfly farm is a must see. We were able to park our car inside their gate, and the home is a 15 min walk to access one of the 3 primary hikes in the area, India Dormida. Jose and his partner, Liz, are wonderful hosts, and made us feel like family. The breakfast is simple and filling, and we could use their fridge and also made a meal or two using the kitchen facilities. Jose and Liz are gracious hosts and Jose is very witty. They made our time there a truly fun and memorable experience. Communication was excellent, in English and Spanish, despite my spouse and I having very limited Spanish language skills. Local knowledge, tips, and recommendations on things to do in the area were great and super appreciated. Finally, Jose joined us on one of our hikes and he made it super fun and interesting with his knowledge of local flora and fauna. Thankyou Jose and Liz, ¡Sois unos anfitriones maravillosos y unos seres humanos increíbles:)

Le séjour chez José était tout simplement superbe ! Malgré notre niveau d'espagnol plus que médiocre, José a su nous transmettre toute sa bienveillance et son goût pour l'accueil et le partage. Il nous a montré les alentours, fait des petits déjeuners superbes dans un cadre magnifique. Merci encore pour l'accueil !

Nous aurions aimé rester plus longtemps pour faire la leçon numéro 5 d'espagnol 😁

Absolutely loved the family. This is a homestay set up and the hosts couldn't be more helpful and kind.

No A/C. But in El Valle it is not as needed as elsewhere in Panama.

Lies and het daughter were very kind. They are such a nice people.

It is close to the centre. Very cozy and the staff was top notch. Lizneth was a very resourceful and kind host and she made us feel at home. The bedroom was very comfortable and our breakfast, whilst simple, was very good and it replenished our energy after a long night of hard-partying. Lizneth also has birds! Don’t really know how that’s relevant but having breakfast while listening at the birds chirping was nice too haha.

I wouldn’t know. We were so pleased with our stay we can’t pinpoint a reason so far. Maybe that the fan we had was really small but that’s it.

Liz and her daughter where so nice. We felt really welcome. The room was clean and had a nice bed. We got some good recommendations for hikes and restaurants in town and every morning Liz made us breakfast and self made juice which was great.

very friendly and kind host, good location

please be aware that this is not a hostel, but rather a home stay, Liz rents out a spare room. it would probably be good to make this clear in the description, as we were not aware of this when booking. rather pricey for what it offers compared to other places.

The hosts were nice and helpful.

We took our time to write this as we do not like to wite bad reviews, the people were nice, and we like to support local. We knew this was a small B&B but it advertises a garden view, mountain view, and sitting area. We envisioned relaxing in the garden watching the sun set over the mountains. However, the reality is very different. The yard is barely big enough for the car, there is No Garden. To view the mountains you have to leave the property. I have included pictures showing the view from the bedroom. I am being harsh but this property is totaly misrepresented and I really question how it has a 9.6 on booking.com.
