The room I was assigned was outdated, very thin sheets, one light, old noisy air conditioner. The staff are pleasant enough and doing their best. Unfortunately it was a last minute non-refundable option.

Clean, safe and very basic
This is not for everyone, this is as basic a hotel room you can get, BUT it is very clean, staff is great. The restaurant and bar are pretty nice. But, this is a clean, functional hotel room with no amenities many of us are used to. If you are only going to shower and sleep in in the room, this is perfect. Great location in Cuidad de Panamá. Safe area, but no frills.

Panama trip.
The hotel is in a really good location. I had probably the worst room available, it was without air and somewhat damp. Good hot shower, much needed in the tropics. Security good. Overall an okay budget hotel. You pay for what you get.

Convenient location but noisy plentiful traffic. Hotel pool on rooftop attracts lots of noisy guest partying late into the night especially on the weekends-- so ask for a lower floor than 7!!! Restaurant/bar is convenient.

Comfortable, clean, minimal.
This is a no-frills hotel, minimal rooms, mine didn’t have a mirror in the bathroom, for example. However, the room was clean, the A/C worked perfectly, TV worked perfectly. Water was hot (it’s Panamá so the water doesn’t really get colder than lukewarm). The restaurant and bar are surprising nice. Staff was great (like elsewhere in Panamá, don’t expect anyone to speak English. Español only)

The hotel was pretty old and the room pretty small anyways I paid for a week and only spend two days out of the week because I had a death in my family and had to book my flight for the following morning so I went to front desk explained my situation to see if I could get some money back and they said no so they basically kept 5days money and for that reason I don’t recommend this place

Price is competitive, however, I found better options for less. If you are a business traveler and depend on the internet, this is definitely not the place, its Wifi connection is very bad.

If you have to stay in the city for an extended time to do visa work, etc, this is a good location that's pretty close to lawyers offices and Immigration Office. The price is right if you're on a budget.

Literally Unsafe Dump
Literally room is no more than 5feet x 5 feet. Hardly any parking place. There were people idlying from the street in the lobby area. This place is unsafe, literally unsafe for anyone and not worth not even $2. Overall, the photos are deceiving anddo not match the reality of the dump room.

It is what it is. Keep expectations in line with the price you are paying. Rooms are basic. Sheets are tired and old. But breakfast is pretty good considering the price - definitely a shining light.

We have stayed here before and it was much better then. Could be because the streets are a mess in the city and everyone is a bit more tense than usual. At least it was clean and that is always a plus for me.
