Great trip to Panama!
Solo trip to Panama City and I had a wonderful time staying at the Selina. It is an older building, so if a little dirt turns you off, then this isn't the place for you. As other reviewers have mentioned it is quite loud with the music and partying going on. I brought a good set of ear plugs to use every night and slept just fine and was able to wake up everyday and start work at 8am. If you're looking for a place to provide options for activities/tours and has a great night life, this is the place for you!
