Die Poolarea bescherte einem Urlaubsfeeling.
Pros:

Pool Area. Frühstück.Sauberkeit.

Cons:

Die teilweise in die Jahre gekommenen Zimmer mit erheblichen Renovierungsbedarf. Die Cabana Zimmer am Pool sind etwas neuer. Aber auch da noch nicht alle. Wir hatten erst ein altes Cabana Zimmer, haben aber wechseln dürfen in ein neueres.

Hotel Regular de buena ubicación!
Pros:

Piscina del hotel excelente. La ubicación a los 2m caminando del metro de Panamá estación el Carmen. El desayuno es bastante bueno y el restaurante excelente.

Cons:

Lo peor del hotel es la gente que trabaja en recepción, son demasiado amargados, poco serviciales, mal encarados y no resuelven. En mi caso en el momento del check-in la habitación no estaba lista y duraron 3 horas en darme otra sin retribución alguna. El Aire acondicionado es deficiente

Buena ubicación y estancia agradable.
Pros:

La ubicación del hotel es muy buena y céntrica. Las áreas comunes, especialmente la piscina, son agradables y el ambiente en general es tranquilo. El personal fue amable y la estancia fue cómoda.

Cons:

El único inconveniente fue que la plancha disponible estaba sucia y terminó manchando un pantalón de lino. Sería bueno revisar ese tipo de detalles para evitar que les pase a otros huéspedes. Ellos me cambiaron la plancha inmediatamente.
