Disappointed and annoyed that was far from listed on site.
Cons:

Was not as pictured or advertised. Was more like a hostel than a 4 star hotel. Concrete corridors, noisy, noisy aircon and bathroom. Was very very basic. Did not feel safe in the area or leaving my belongings in the room. After paying for 14 nights on check in and going to my room I requested to check out the following day. I was charged for two nights and had to find alternate accom for the other 13 nights.

estadía de pesadilla en Panamá
Pros:

Es un hotel viejo con mal mantenimiento, las cosas en las habitaciones están dañadas, peladas, viejas, el aire acondicionado funciona unicamente autompatico, habría que tumbar el edificio y volverlo a hacer

Cons:

el mal estado del edificio, hay goteras en el restaurante, en la fachada, el aseo es malo, las cortinas, toallas, ropa de cama manchadas y ya no son blancas sino grises. habia un mueble con un cajon que medio cerraba y nunca lo repararon, la plancha de ropa que me prestaron tampoco funcionó bien

Very unpleasant experience
Pros:

The hotel’s close proximity to shopping

Cons:

I was initially given a room which was already occupied. The room eventually given was very musty with poor lighting and the AC was extremely cold . The main staff at the dinner area should smile a little more.

Muy buena.
Pros:

Buen desayuno, falto capaz un poco más de variedad. La ubicación excelente para el ámbito en que fui a desenvolverme. La piscina parecía buena con una buena vista, pero lastimosamente no la pude aprovechar.

Cons:

Todo estuvo bien en cuanto al desayuno, solo el detalle que debería de tener un poco más de variedad, capaz por el hecho de ser extranjero me dejo esa sensación.

The room was comfortable and clean; breakfast menu and dining area hygiene needs improvement
Pros:

I had a lovely stay at this hotel. The room was spacious, well-kept, and comfortable, with a nice view that made the experience even more enjoyable. The room was cleaned regularly and maintained to a high standard throughout my stay.

Cons:

The breakfast experience could be improved significantly. The menu was practically the same every day, with very little variety to cater to guests from different nationalities and cultural backgrounds. There were also too many large flies around the dining area, which raised concerns about hygiene. Additionally, a staff member was visibly wearing soiled clothing, which did not create a good impression.

The table coverings also need attention. The fabric coverings should be changed and washed regularly or replaced with a more suitable material that can be easily wiped and sanitized after each use.
