Positive Reviews
positive:
On-site restaurant is the highlight of this hotel
You won't be disappointed with the on-site restaurant. The included breakfast comprises a buffet that changes on a daily basis. While there are a number of eateries nearby serving lunch and dinner, the hotel restaurant's enticing Panamanian menu and affordable, good quality food make it an option you'll keep going back to.
positive:
Well located for taxi hire
With reasonable rates charged by the hour, day or per destination, taxis are an economic way of exploring the city. The hotel can book taxis for you, or you can hail yellow cabs in moments on the street outside.
positive:
Quiet local establishment beats chain hotels
While a number of chain hotels operate in the city, you'll find this local establishment to be a great base. Set in a quiet and convenient downtown location, there are many restaurants, bars and convenience stores within a short stroll. On-site facilities like the rooftop terrace are well maintained.
Negative Reviews
negative:
Overwhelmingly average
There's nothing particularly bad about this hotel, but there's nothing really great about it either. You'll feel like you wouldn't mind staying again yet would probably try somewhere else. Expect competitive rates and all the basics with no frills.
negative:
Only the windows are soundproofed
You won't be disturbed by traffic or other outside noises, however, you'll be able to hear your fellow guests through the thin walls and ceilings. Within the room, be aware that the bathroom extractor fan is rather loud.
negative:
Inconsistent check-in service
There are mixed reports of check-in experience with many guests commenting on lethargic and distracted service. While you may be lucky and have a smooth check-in, you might equally face long delays caused by indifferent staff or poor English skills.
