Very clean room, the staff was very kind and accommodating to our needs. Breakfast and dinner was delicious. This is an older hotel, could use a few upgrades but clean and well maintained. We actually stayed longer than originally booked. This is not a fancy hotel but is safe, clean, well maintained and very affordable. It is centrally located in the city. Would definitely stay here again.

Have stayed here many times. Always consistent. The restaurant is good and the staff is very friendly. Ask for Jose. David has limited restaurants that may appeal to American tastes. If you are visiting I suggest you try Boquete where you will be pleased. If spending a few nights in David then Alcala is certainly acceptable. I have lived here for 4 years so I have a little experience in these things.
