“Reasonably priced hotel that exceeded my expectations”

The hotel is located near to the malls and other places of interest. The surrounding area was not so sophisticated but I appreciated the large supermarket close by. I didn’t have much problem with noise which was limited mainly to the motor vehicles traversing the road. Taking the uber was easy and cost effective. My room was very clean and I got room service every day. I really appreciated the ladies who took care of the room, the were very professional and courteous. The lobby staff were helpful and professional. Check in and check out was very easy. The breakfast served was very delicious every morning.

“Good price to quality ratio”

The hotel has great price to quality ratio. Breakfast was nice, there are several options to choose from, also hours when its offered are favorable. Enough electric outlets, well positioned. Good hotel location (walking distance to Casco Viejo, big bus station (5 de Mayo) closeby that serves many … more

The hotel has great price to quality ratio. Breakfast was nice, there are several options to choose from, also hours when its offered are favorable. Enough electric outlets, well positioned. Good hotel location (walking distance to Casco Viejo, big bus station (5 de Mayo) closeby that serves many locations, including Albrook and Panama Viejo. Staff, cleanliness OK. Rooftop pool is a good way to refresh! There is a bar also and considering we were in the top floor I have to say that the music on Sat evening didn’t bother us. The only two things that bothered me are one mattress in a queen bed - when my friend moved, I woke up - and thin walls. There were some people talking super loudly in the morning on the hallway so we woke up.

“Unexpected good”

We stayed there only for 1 night on the way to San Blas Islands. Bad neighborhood but they are trying to make more from 1 star hotel than it is. Clean rooms, white sheets, nice staff I appreciate all of these a lot.

“Adrenaline”

I booked this hotel by mistake because I thought it was close to the airport. But as it turned out, not for the airport where my plane from Europe landed. The hotel is in a pretty awful area. I don't think it would be wise to be outside in the dark, maybe not even in the light. It is not for nothin… more

I booked this hotel by mistake because I thought it was close to the airport. But as it turned out, not for the airport where my plane from Europe landed. The hotel is in a pretty awful area. I don't think it would be wise to be outside in the dark, maybe not even in the light. It is not for nothing that the taxi drivers at the airport initially did not want to go there and laughed at my choice of hotel. The room was very simple, but big enough. However, the air-conditioner or similar device, from which some kind of cold came, roared like a volcano during an eruption and it was impossible to sleep at night. On the other hand, when I turned it off, the temperature rose to about 70 degrees Celsius and I almost suffocated. I tried to open the window, but a swarm of mosquitoes flew in and bit me thoroughly. In addition, outside on the street, drug addicts screamed in spasms and street prostitutes cursed. So it was impossible to fall asleep. Of course, no one spoke English in the hotel.

“Looks”

Looks better in photographs than it actually is and is in a less than salubrious part of the city, yet the rooms are fine yet for the fee charged I would not criticise this property overall except that the pool is not very alluring.
