The hotel was excellent. Great location and an outstanding staff. If you stay here check out Concolon Panamanian Street Food, just around the corner. Inexpensive and may have been the best food we had in Panama.

Verified review

8/10 Very good

The overall stay was good. However, the room we received was not as in photo that is shared on the web sites and had a dark wood bed. The bathroom had an old-style sink and water was all over the countertop. On a positive side, the room was clean and spacious, friendly staff. Location is pretty quite, a bit far from the cafes or the main road. There is no sea view. At least not from the room that we were in. I would not say it is a 5-star hotel, but a good hotel for Business travellers and a short stay!

Verified review

8/10 Very good

This hotel is beautiful and very clean. The staff are friendly and helpful. The pool is very small and in a strange spot so not that enticing to use. The gym is very well equipped and spacious; but it was under construction partway through our visit which we did not know about ahead of time. The only issue I had with this hotel was the mattresses; they need to be replace. They are conceived and springs poke into you-it was very uncomfortable. But I cannot stress enough how wonderful the front desk staff were in helping me when I left my purse in an uber. They went above and beyond to help.
