This is a very nice little no-frills hotel, located on the pedestrian street near Plaza Santa Ana and just a few minutes’ walk from the Casco Viejo historic district. 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.

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.

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.

I was excited to discover a hostel that had a regular hotel room feel! $25/nt! Boy, was I wrong! There was only 1 bed. ✔️ An ensuite bathroom. ✔️ Close to the grocery store and near the night life. ✔️ But it was rundown and, while clean, the stains on everything left it feeling dirty. The room didn’t have a window. And my driver told me what areas not yo go to after dark. While I wasn't afraid or disgusted, it just wasn't for me. I checked out and found another hotel. Note to self: If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is!

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!

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
