Good location close to restaurants but Reception is terrible. Milna Diaz was rude and not accommodating at all. We wasted over 1h15 trying to get in our room. Once check-in, the key to our door did not work, the A/C was not working, no remote control in the room. Another hour waiting to settle in. Horrible... We only stayed ONE night and for that we (4 people) were very happy. You pay for what you get I guess.

Already stayed there a couple of times and would stay there again. Well located in the middle of the hustle and bustle evening foodie street, easy to locate by everyone. Is advertised as four stars (hmm I would say 3 superior) has adjacent oriental restaurant, an outdoor pool, tour desks and car park (highly appreciated). There are lots and lots of hotels in this city from very cheap ones (but also located in very undesireable areas and some if well located have doubtful management/staff issues) to obvious upscale ones. Found the rooms clean, with clean sheets and towels, basic with no frills. Everytime got the front rooms with large windows, so nice to watch the nearby city lights. Staff service was OK, just doing their job. They close the hotel with key after midnight but always there is the nightwatch in case a guest makes late night. If visiting Panama again, most probably would stay there again.…

The hotel decided to cancelled my booking done through booking.com without previous notification. After more than 36 hours travel time, the only thing you want is to arrive at the hotel and sleep, however, when I arrived at the hotel with my 3 suitcases I was told that they cancelled my booking and that I have to look for another hotel and organize my own transport.

Absolutely awful! Someone came into my room in the middle of the night! I thought I was being robbed. The person said they worked for the hotel and they made a mistake. I told the staff about it the next morning and they didn’t seem to care! They acted annoyed that I even brought it up. Unacceptable!

Very good location, good attention, and confortable. The sushi bar highly recomended. You can have delivery at your room, some very good places to eat in the area. 20 minutes from the airport. I would definitely go back there.

The staff were so helpful here when we lost luggage and had to try to get it back from the airline before a connecting flight the next day. The hotel is clean, comfortable and is in a good location near lots of nice restaurants. Air con is appreciated in the Panama weather. Excellent value for money.

The Room - The queen-sized bed was luxurious, the pillows were comfortable, the rain shower in the bathroom was refreshing, the air conditioning was cold. The room also had a large closet with drawers, a TV with remote, a desk and two chairs, and the room was VERY clean. The WIFI was free, strong and very useful to me! They also have an in-room safe for your valuables, a pool and their own parking garage but I did not use them. The Metro Stop at Via Argentina is close by. I had a beautiful view of the city from my 5th floor window where I could enjoy the rain storms and the city lights at night. The Staff and Surroundings - I felt VERY safe! The staff answered questions, ordered taxis for me (until my Uber App started working) and was welcoming and accommodating. Cesar Ramirez especially (I believe he is the front desk manager) spoke English and was so very helpful to me!! EXCELLENT STAFF - EXCELLENT CUSTOMER SERVICE!! They also spent time with a taxi driver helping him to understand that I wanted him to take me one place, wait for me to finish, then take me to my final destination--the trip was a success! The mini market next door is super convenient (with American items and pricing). The Tsugoi Restaurant next door was a treat for me. Sushi and Yakisoba! YUM!! If you want all the amenities of a 5-star resort, you might not find them in the room: an alarm clock (you have one on your cell phone), complimentary shampoo and conditioner (just buy or bring your own), a coffee maker (I think the mini market next door has some--it's Panama, go on a coffee adventure and try some of the best coffee in the world)…

Liked · Good location in the center of Panama City. Free private parking was a great perk. The hotel does not have a restaurant but is adjacent to an Asian/Sushi restaurant which is very good and a convenience store next door for snacks and coffee. Nice and comfortable clean rooms and friendly, helpful staff. They also have a small pool area which is a nice feature. Excellent value for the money! Disliked · The only suggestion for improvement would be if the hotel had coffee available for guests in the early morning hours in the lobby. The convenience store next door is not open early to get coffee and it would be a nice touch if it was available in the hotel.

I'm convinced that hotels just aren't ready to open during the pandemic. While I can appreciate their eagerness to re-open they'd be advised to present thoroughly cleaned and prepared rooms. I landed here because a neighboring hotel was so disgusting that we couldn't manage for two days. Begin at the front office staff, the first impression. One just stares at you, never smiles. Encountered five front office staff, only one spoke enough English to be of assistance. The rooms were sloppily painted. Paint droppings all over the floor, on the headboard, and mixed matched paint swabs. The sheets were threadbare. The cloth chairs, not hotel appropriate, were so dirty put a towel on it. The walls were scuffed and dirt that could have been wiped off. Does anybody do maintenance requests? The grossest thing is the faucet. It had an unhealth amount of mold accumulation on the vanity faucet. I noticed that something streamed with the water flow. I used the towel to clean as much as I could, Let's just say it took several wipes and twist to remove most of the build up. See the picture below. Hotels are running at partial occupancy, so why couldn't have changed the toilet top. A tear in the curtain sheers. I read the hotel features. Most of the items are in the king bedded suites, kitchenette, bathtub, etc), not in the standard rooms. This is a stretch and deserves clarification. The rooms are not soundproof. I could hear televisions, housekeeping carts rolling down the hall, furniture scrapping the floor overhead, sirens, and guests engaged in intimacy. The lobby is filled with furniture, but guests cannot sit there. The problem is limited inventory. The general manager, head of housekeeping, and maintenance chief need to tour and inspect all rooms to see which ones are rent ready.…
