No hot water in the shower. Strong smell of cleaning products in the room and even stronger in the bathroom. Very comfortable bed which is not that easy to find in Panama.

Great Spot Best piñacolada
Great location, very clean, food was great, the picada from the bar near the poil was amaizing. Ive travelled to over 8 countires and they had the best piñacolada ive every tasted thanks to bar man Miguel! Breakfast was good but *Breakfast service* was really bad. Took 1hr to get breakfast on both days, the second day we arrived and they prioritized a large political group that arrived after us.

It was great value and conveniently located, right off the main highway. We were only passing through on our way back to Panama City, so for our needs it fit perfectly. The room is very basic, but we were not looking for anything more than that. The most convenient dining option is their restaurant, which had good food. We would recommend for a quick one or two night stay

Staff at the hotel lack any skills in hospitality. The restaurant staff make you feel like serving you is getting in the way of their job when it is their job. Plates are dumped on the table and making requests is difficult. The whole hotel is more like a motel crossed with a clinic. It is very expensive for the quality offtered and breakfast is a poor choice of three basic options when a combination would be nicer. Rooms are a bit austere, dated and characterless although the beds are comfortable. Cleaning of the room could be better, also sheets and towels had some small stains and the lamps were dirty. Our room was full of flies when we arrived. The window lock did not work. We had to stay twice to suit our plans and if we hadn't already booked the second we would have gone elsewhere. The only good things were the proximity to the bus stop and the reasonably priced meals in the restaurant (despite the harsh surroundings and poor service). Overall i would expect much better for the price.

We had read the iffy reviews about all the hotels in Santiago, but honestly, the Hotel Galería was great! We really enjoyed our stay en route from Panama City to Boquette! The woman at the check-in desk was nice, the room was super clean, the pool was wonderful! We really enjoyed it! We recommend eating at Oh-Toro (sushi and ramen) just a short walk from the hotel. And you should also stop by the El Machetazo (similar to Walmart in the strip center shopping area next door) to buy cat food and treats for the stray cats that roam around the Hotel Galería property. They are a little scared of people, but they were very grateful for the food! Also, the complimentary breakfast at the hotel was very filling, and the coffee was excellent! We were so happy with our stay! I honestly can’t understand why some people are so hard to please. You’re on vacation, people, take it easy! :)

Lovely spot to stay & easy to find.
This hotel is in a pretty ideal location with plenty of delicious food in their on-site restaurant and lots of other dining choices within walking distance (watch out, only American fast food places are open on Sundays). The staff was very nice and had no problem giving us a quieter room away from the highway, lovely bonus.

Staff at check in did not speak ONE word of English. I didn’t expect fluently but a few words to facilitate checkin I think should be expected along the major Hwy corridor traveling across Panama. Otherwise great.

Either Expedia or the Hotel itself misrepresented the accommodations. We reserved and paid for a 'Deluxe' Double Room, with 2 Queen Beds. The hotel said upon check in that room does not exist even though it states it at their site and on Expedia. Additionally the room itself was dump; it had four lights only one worked, bulbs missing or inoperable, the bathroom door knob was coming completely out of the frame, the room was dirty and only had two double beds squeezed into a very small room. The elevator could only hold two people with one piece of luggage each. Total misrepresentation by both companies.

This hotel was a stopover and rest For us as we travelled across country. The staff was very helpful as we don’t speak much Spanish. The room was comfortable and clean and the pool and area was well maintained. Our breakfast was included and the options were substantial and served hot and efficiently. The hotel had a number of services in a plaza next door. The fare to the bus station was only 2$. I would recommend this hotel and would stay again under the same circumstances.
