Wonderful historic hotel. Breakfast was not included in my rate but for $10 per person, the breakfast was amazing and cooked to order. Great location and nice pool area. Very helpful front desk staff. Definitely want to stay in Casco Viejo to experience the old Town of Panama. We will return to Panama and to this hotel.

If you’re a light sleeper like me - this hotel is not for you. It has two exposures: one to the square where there is partying and loud music every night till early morning and another exposure is to the church where the bells go off every 15 min from 6am-10pm. Resting was challenging and completely impossible during the day. Otherwise, the hotel was fine: clean, nice rooms, nice enough staff, very basic facilities: small gym and pool that we haven’t used (too small). Food was okay - we found much better restaurants especially for breakfast elsewhere. I guess it was fine for the price.
