We stayed here for 5 nights in early May. We had stumbled upon it on the internet when looking at reviews for other hostels and decided to give it a go. It didn't start well when we called to make a reservation and Frank said he wouldn't take reservations. We tried again another time and he relented. We were not... More

We stayed at Pension Marilos for 4 nights in June 2013. It was an excellent value at US$20 / night. The atmosphere is very laid back and the owner and the workers are all friendly and non-obtrusive. The parrot and the dogs are cute, but the parrot is a little bit noisy (and sounds like a per-pubescent goat). The rooms... More

$20 for 2 of us in a spacious room with private bathroom. Plus our room was serviced daily! The parrot is very noisy but luckily not during the night. Located in a quiet street a few minutes walk from the main street. We got our laundry done across the street, had a great massage with Kitzie at Spa Boquete &... More

We have been for 1 month in Panama and we were 5 nights in Pension Marilos. We didn't need warm showers to get warm here. It was the atmosphere: Frank, the house keeping their kids, the other people and the kitchen. which gave us warmth. Thank you Frank for a great stay in your place.

Placed on a quiet street close to the centre of Boquete this hostel provides excellent value for money. The rooms are clean, and despite the presence of two dogs and a parrot (friendly greeting with "Hola" each time you are entering the building) it was quiet for a nice sleep. The owner and the staff were very helpful. Highly recommended!

Ive been to boquete before and have been to other hotels/hostels and I would say that for the price this is the cleanest and quietest BandB/Hostel Ive been to in Panama yet. Rooms were very clean, owner was very helpful, and rooms were cheap. Cheaper than some other hostels that claim to be better. Not a party place though, does... More

We found this place via Lonely Planet and we called there in advance to reassure us about availability. Frank, the owner is a really nice guy who has his origins in Croatia. The rooms are simple and tidied up, they are very clean (probably the cleanest in our entire 5-week-stay in Panama and Costa Rica - really incredible value for... More

This is a place where you get more for your money. It is very very clean, new, proper. It is more a hotel than a hostel. Owners are gentle and kind. You feel as at home. It is not a place for drinkers. There are children and don't go there to make a fiesta. There will be no fiesta anyway.... More
