She was kind and welcoming and so helpful with me after my phone was stolen in Ecuador the day before I arrived. I cannot thank her enough.

Panama City

At the hostel, each room comes with a wardrobe. Complete with a private bathroom, guest rooms at Hostal Amador Familiar are equipped with air conditioning, and selected rooms come with a seating area. At the accommodation each room is fitted with bed linen and towels. We absolutely loved staying at Hostal Amador Familiar! The room was comfy and spacious, with a nice view on the garden surrounding the property. The area is very peaceful, it was wonderful waking up with the song of the birds and the rustle of leaves. In the kitchen you can always find hot coffee for free, great to wake you up in the morning! Even better is being greeted by the super friendly staff and Kai, the sweetest pup you'll ever meet and the real head of the family at Hostal Amador! Positive quotes are written all around inside the hostal, leaving you with a warm feeling. Staying here felt like finding a new home and we really hope we can visit again one day!
