It was extremely low cost but also in good condition and very secure. The staff were helpful with getting a taxi and they let me store belongings there before checking in later in the day. All in all a very good experience. ##### Craig Stayed 1 night in Jul 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Emily Sep 10, 2025 Liked: Staff & service #### Wouldn't return, mostly location reasons The location is really dangerous, definitely don't arrive at night - we felt it was dangerous when we arrived at 7/8pm. The guy who checked us in was lovely and spoke very good English. The place didn't really look like the pictures, it was much more run down and a lot smaller. Easy to miss the entrance for the building too - there's a sign at the top so you know where it is. ##### Emily Stayed 1 night in Sep 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Bethany Aug 9, 2023 Great value for money ##### Bethany Stayed 1 night in Aug 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Karen Jan 12, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Hotel staff easy checkin.

Good WiFi No outlet to charge phone in room or hot shower water though ##### Karen Stayed 1 night in Jan 2025 ### 4/10 Poor #### Yoke Jan 15, 2025 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Strategic location. Uncomfortable and sense 'passive-agressive' vibes. Extend my stay at another wonderful similarly priced hotel nearby, same location. Go there ! ##### Yoke Stayed 4 nights in Jan 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sharon Jan 25, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### A clean, safe, convenient gem. A nice, quiet, clean, and comfortable place to stay near the 5 de Mayo metro station & Casco Viejo. Sr. Ever (?) was very helpful as was the young man who checked me in. Would definitely stay here again. ##### Sharon Stayed 2 nights in Jan 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Sean Sep 10, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service Not the Ritz but what would you expect for $30 a night in Casco Viejo. Staff was wonderful. Bar on the property was a plus. What really shines is the location. ##### Sean Stayed 4 nights in Sep 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Jadid Oct 20, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities As a Hostel close to Casco Viejo, La Cigarra is a good option. Very affordable and close to the amenities of Casco Viejo. It appears to be a family run business, they are very friendly and nice. It is a good place for backpackers. The location is not for everyone. ##### Jadid Stayed 1 night in Oct 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Chris Mar 9, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Property is great for the price, area is a little crazy after dark, i stayed for 2 weeks and it worked just fine for me ##### Chris Stayed 6 nights in Mar 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### David Jul 22, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Excellent location for a low price - very close to Casco Viejo and some very good restaurants. Staff were present, friendly, and helpful. My room had a very functional air conditioner, and a bathroom. The street outside is a brick-paved pedestrian-only shopping street, leading into Casco Viejo. ##### David Stayed 5 nights in Jul 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Bradley Feb 29, 2024 Liked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities For the price and proximity to the Old Towne, you cant beat it. Wifi speed was great, however lacks power outlets in co-working area. Property is secure with passcard access. Small commissary onsite for beverages, snacks, laundry. ##### Bradley Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2024 ### 4/10 Poor #### Terje Nov 21, 2024 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Close to old town You get what you pay for. No hot water and they clean my room only once at my 6 nights stay. I will not stay here again. The only good thing about this place is the people who works there and its a short walk to old town. ##### Terje Stayed 6 nights in Nov 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Joydip Dec 20, 2024 Liked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities Simple, minimalist, quiet one room priv bathroom on a pedestrian street, in busy, noisy, dirty old town Panama City. Uber can't drop you at the front door. A short walk through an alley with shops during the day, shuttered at night. Learn a little spanish! ##### Joydip Stayed 1 night in Dec 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Karen Jan 13, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Location was convenient, room was minimalistic, but relatively clean and comfortable. Fine for the money. Things to note: no hot water and only outlet was near the ceiling - cant charge device like phone or computer like that! We did have a power outage and I had to pack in the dark though. Guy who checked me in was nice and helpful. ##### Karen Stayed 1 night in Jan 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Anahi Jun 2, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Great accommodation at an affordable price I had a great time at hostal la cigarra. It is located in the neighborhood of Santa Ana, just steps away from Casco Viejo. I was unsure of the location at first because I saw some sketchy areas around but in the end I felt really safe even as a female solo traveler. I even came back for another night after a trip to San Blas islands. It’s located on a pedestrian street across from a supermarket, next to a bakery and around the corner from a “feria” where there are all kinds of stalls of people selling beautiful stuff at a great price. I recommend this place. ##### Anahi Stayed 2 nights in May 2024 ### 4/10 Poor #### Nakia Aug 17, 2024 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities The shower was horrible ##### Nakia Stayed 1 night in Aug 2024 ### 4/10 Poor #### Verified traveller Sep 4, 2024 Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities The place is good to sleep only. Nothing fancy. I have some mosquitoes in my room. And it's not that clean. Basically, you get what you pay for. Ever the guy receptionist is very helpful, even the lady at check out. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Margaret Dec 1, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### 2 nights in town Easy check in, friendly service, awesome laundry rates and in a decent area. Make sure they give you a key to get in at the gate!! They're doing construction so no rooftop area at the moment. Walkable to fish market and Casco Veijo (never felt unsafe). Grocery store nearby. No hot water was the downside, otherwise, for the amount we paid, we were satisfied. ##### Margaret Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2023 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [AC Hotel by Marriott Panama City](https://www.expedia.ca/Panama-City-Hotels-AC-Hotel-By-Marriott-Panama-City.h12880383.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels near Bloor-Yonge Station](https://www.expedia.ca/Bloor-Yonge-Station-Hotels.d6264211.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Las Americas Golden Tower Panama](https://www.expedia.ca/Panama-City-Hotels-Las-Americas-Golden-Tower-Panama.h9675263.Hotel-Information) > > [Best Western Ville-Marie Montreal Hotel & Suites](https://www.expedia.ca/Montreal-Hotels-Best-Western-Ville-Marie-Montreal-Hotel-Suites.h563088.Hotel-Information) > > [Playa Blanca Beach Resort - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/Rio-Hato-Hotels-Playa-Blanca-Beach-Resort-All-Inclusive.h967117.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Downtown Calgary](https://www.expedia.ca/Downtown-Calgary-Calgary-Hotels.0-n6057872-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Decapolis Hotel Panama City](https://www.expedia.ca/Panama-City-Hotels-Decapolis-Hotel-Panama-City.h1082793.Hotel-Information) > > [Magnolia Inn](https://www.expedia.ca/Panama-City-Hotels-Magnolia-Inn.h24165406.Hotel-Information) > > [Socialtel Casco Viejo Panama City](https://www.expedia.ca/Panama-City-Hotels-Selina-Casco-Viejo-Panama-City.h22355532.Hotel-Information) > > [JW Marriott Panama](https://www.expedia.ca/Panama-City-Hotels-JW-Marriott-Panama.h4109123.Hotel-Information) > > [Benmiller Inn & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Ashfield-Colborne-Wawanosh-Hotels-Benmiller-Inn-Spa.h1881763.Hotel-Information) > > [Days Inn by Wyndham Barrie](https://www.expedia.ca/Barrie-Hotels-Days-Inn-By-Wyndham-Barrie.h19481.Hotel-Information) > > [InterContinental Miramar Panama by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Panama-City-Hotels-InterContinental-Miramar-Panama.h53197.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Riu Plaza Panama](https://www.expedia.ca/Panama-City-Hotels-Hotel-Riu-Plaza-Panama.h3900395.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Niagara Falls](https://www.expedia.ca/Niagara-Falls-Hotels.d6023515.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Radisson Hotel Panama Canal](https://www.expedia.ca/Amador-Hotels-Radisson-Hotel-Panama-Canal.h809149.Hotel-Information) > > [NIZUC Resort and Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Cancun-Hotels-Nizuc-Resort-And-Spa.h5531551.Hotel-Information) > > [Waldorf Astoria Panama](https://www.expedia.ca/Panama-City-Hotels-Waldorf-Astoria-Panama.h4952056.Hotel-Information) > > [Victorian Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Vancouver-Hotels-Victorian-Hotel.h2406456.Hotel-Information) > > [Villas Bali](https://www.expedia.ca/Bali-Villas.d602651-aaVillas.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > > [Hotel Coral Suites](https://www.expedia.ca/Panama-City-Hotels-Hotel-Coral-Suites.h3893051.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Panama](https://www.expedia.ca/Panama-City-Hotels-Hilton-Panama.h5938139.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Flights from Dorval (YUL) to Nassau (NAS)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yul/nas/montreal-to-nassau) > > [Flights from Richmond (YVR) to Dorval (YUL)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yvr/yul/vancouver-to-montreal) ### Activities ### Packages > [All inclusive vacations](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/theme-vacations/all-inclusive-vacations) ### General
