Wonderful hotel, incredible value
Pros:

I was greeted warmly as soon as I arrived and the staff were kind, friendly, and professional the whole time I was there. My room was very clean and well equipped with whatever I needed. The location is great - by restaurants, the metro, and stores. Top notch WiFi, which is key for me. Great value for money and I’ll for sure stay here again next time I’m in Panama City!

Cons:

Keep up the great work

Desagradable
Pros:

Lo he usado varias veces por la cercania a la estación Lotería de metro.

Cons:

Lo he usado varias veces casi mi quinta vez y siempre uno que otro detalle, pero esta vez estuvo muy mal la experiencia ya que al parecer no hacen la limpieza correcta en las habitaciones, ordenan las camas sin lavar las sábanas, al levantar la frazada para dormir las sábanas estaban llenas de cabello por todas partes de la cama y almohadas, entro al baño y peor lleno de cabello las paredes. Tuve que pedir sabanas nuevas y acomodarlas yo mismo para dormir. No use la frazada porque por el grosor de la misma en muchos hoteles soy conciente de que estas no se lavan hasta que no estén realmente sucias por eso prefiero no usarlas. Intenté el cambio de habitación pero este no fue posible.

Recomendado
Pros:

Es buen Hotel, esta cerca de la estacion del Metro. Me he hospedado 4 ocaciones y el personal bien atento es 10 de 10 muy atento siempre.

Cons:

Deberian acondicionar todas las habitaciones bajo el mismo estandar y calidad. Mucho cuidado con las sábanas al encontrar cabellos de otra persona da la impresión que no siempre se lavan.
