Reviews of hostal Camping la ygriega

The location was great! Chill area next to a beach!

Staff didn't speak English at all. No advise or recommendations from the staff, he just sat there all day on his phone! They didn't accept card and it was on the booking description they accepted card and when we paid in cash they didn't even have change for $5. The tent was dirty and lacked basic things like a power cable and a fan as it was very hot! These things I would be happy to go without if it was a bit cheaper. The showers were gross, toilettes were ok. Quite disappointed for a tent thats thrown on the floor of what looks like a shed. The tents are squashed right next to each other so you dont even have any personal space Overall disappointed and have the impression the owners are trying to make as much money as they can and provide as little as they can.

The hostal has a great location: in one direction is Bluff Beach, in another one is Starfish Beach. The Istmito Beach was dirty and had a lot of seaweed.

There were noisy neighbors with loud music at a later night. Also, there is a commercial building construction nearby. They are working even on Sunday.

Súper clean place Nice kitchen Clean bedclothes and changed every time a new host arrives

the price was by far the best on the island, but facilities were excellent anyway! bathrooms great, kitchen well equipped and decent size, friendly staff

the place was a long walk out of town and sometimes it was tricky to get a bus/taxi but not enough to make it a problem. the ‘free bikes’ info must be old because they property didn’t have any to use, although you can rent them from next door

The hostel include the camp tent, so you do not need carry your tent or sleeping bag

1) The hostel is locate to 3.5 km from the center in a region without access to supermarkets, hospitals, etc. You are forced to pay $1 travel to the center each time you need buy food. 2) The kitchen and livinroom is inhabited by 3 cats that catch your food everytime you move from the table...It is a very stressful situatiion. 3) -The hostel do not accept credict cards, only money 4) The hostel rules are not obey by some people. Some travelers smoke in the kitchet even when it iis not allowed, and some couples remains speaking all the night.

The hostel was super cheap which was great for travellers (like us) who are on a budget. The option to rent a fan was great too although it actually wasn’t too hot at night. Loved the outside shower! It’s a little bit further out of town but only $1 for a taxi so not bad at all.

The kitchen was honestly pretty dirty and could have been a bit better equipped but for the price we paid can’t really complain too much!

Nice guy on reception let us pay later as we didn't have cash on arrival. The mattress in the tent was surprisingly comfy. Plenty of places to charge your phone. Decent communal area to chill. Overall it was fine for one night.

I think $20 for a tent inside is a bit of a rip-off, to be honest. You don't get the fun parts of staying in a tent like waking up outside. The kitchen was pretty dirty and poorly equipped. It would take someone 5 minutes to clean the surfaces to prevent the flies hovering around and put stuff away.

Very nice place to hang around

I hate the sheet. It’s not holding on the mattress. Please buy new ones

everything was great but what it really stand Out was Victor with his good heart and genuine interest in making sure everything was okay at all times . I honestly been travelling for 2 months and no one shown the same care as him plus he gave me really good directions for my time in Bocas.

nothing to mention

We really enjoyed everything. The staff and environment were lovely. Very relaxing.

There was quite a bit of construction in the area. We would have liked if there were proper dish clothes and tea towels in the kitchen. It would be nice if there was designated smoking area with a bench or chairs.

It was a nice hostel situated near the beach with nice young people.

Cleanliness could have been a bit better.

it was a quirky hostel that was a great budget place to stay! it had nice chilled vibes and was clean.

some of the tents were a bit hot - not enough fans blowing around them.

Julian y Marianela muy fantásticos

nothing

Nice cheap option for Bocas. Has everything you need.

Receptionist not always there.

Friendly volunteers & guests, lots of shade, everything worked - all good! Away from noisy party vibes of town, close to swimming beaches.

Cheap for its proximity to Bocas, with the taxi only being $1 into town. The room was comfortable and staff were happy to help with any questions

room can be a little loud due to the number of tents staying on the roof above the room. Also, the communal areas were only adequately clean

everything was super nice. Very eco-friendly which we appreciated. The host was amazing and so was the overall atmosphere. Kitchen well equipped.

I really liked the eco conscious focus of this hostel, you could tell right away they are mindful about being resourceful. They're also the most affordable hostel in Bocas that I could find, if you're investment focus is purely price. I do feel that they could work on answering phone calls, doorbell rings/knocks, whatsapp text alittle more efficiently and timely. Just so you're not waiting outside for 25 minutes like I did, lol.

Already stated that in what I liked, (the last 2 sentences).
