The restaurant /bar has a great location on the beach, including shaded areas to hang out in hammocks and on covered platforms. Food and drinks were great! Can’t beat the location. We rode hotel bikes along the Main Street to explore more sites. Staff (Alejandra) was very welcoming, energetic and helpful. We were so pleased with everything! Bonus: we had a brand new mattress as they are updating rooms. Lucky for me! 😁 It was very comfortable! Overall Quiet, comfy, and lovely! Wish we could have stayed longer. I’d gladly visit again! Thank you, Hotel 506 for making my trip to Puerto Viejo an unforgettable memory! ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/2a3641e0-61e5-4190-ba61-fe41e2d76aad-1754403677032.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/c54b936c-802b-4e1f-bf6c-e7536a555c67-1754403680434.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/64a0801a-e378-494b-9ba6-39b1573663dc-1754403680336.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/4130a51e-23e9-4aff-bd4d-997bc4db571e-1754403681577.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Zoe Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Adriana Jul 2, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities Great experience !

Different restaurants and a market not far. Playa 506 is directly on the beach which is great and it’s beautiful. Located near other hostels which is nice. Everything is walkable, or you can rent a bike, or scooters, or taxi. I like that the hostel had a restaurant/ bar very combined when other places in town were not open as early. ##### Tamara Stayed 3 nights in May 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### frantz Feb 8, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities All ##### frantz Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Nicole May 23, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Had a blast! Had an absolute blast at Playa 506. The location straight on the beach is incredible, both for just going out for a swim but also to watch the incredible sunrises in the morning. The people in the reception are also so helpful and kind. There was a party in Bocos, Panama, the weekend I was staying but the vibe was still cool, the Sunday when people were coming back it became straight away even more social which was a nice way to finish off my stay. The only downer for this place is that there’s no free coffee in the morning. The facilities are also alright, I’ve been to hostels with better/cleaner kitchen facilities but it was still alright. Would highly recommend to stay! ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/355EC31733011AFA2438F9C39D2F64265C66FE441716238224001.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/DCF719C38BD0775D04D15CD41BEF7267F800EC7C1716238221764.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Nicole Stayed 3 nights in May 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Nicole May 20, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Had a blast!

Bordering on rude. It was very noisy. The people above us sounded like they were coming through our floor. We took some friends to eat snacks and get 1 drink at the restaurant and it was outrageously expensive. We ate at Koki twice and it wasn't that expensive. Even though this property has a great location at Playa Cocles, I won't stay here again. ##### Jane Stayed 3 nights in Mar 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Don Sep 1, 2025 ##### Don Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jhair May 2, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Na ##### Jhair Stayed 4 nights in Apr 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Francisco Apr 17, 2025 ##### Francisco Stayed 3 nights in Apr 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Richard Feb 27, 2025 ##### Richard Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Diana Feb 13, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities ##### Diana Stayed 1 night in Feb 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Sara Feb 1, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort ##### Sara Stayed 6 nights in Jan 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### jimmy Jan 2, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service #### bien place et agréable pour un court séjour hostel agréable avec accès direct a la plage, personnels sympa et agréables.
