Made booking on 8th May, confirmed booking on the 3rd June. On arrival hotel was booked out. Reservation was still valid. Never saw beyond the reception area. We were not even afforded a complementary breakfast. We were then transferred to the Grand International hotel. Receptionist, very accommodating, rooms and house keeping better than average, b/fast ok. Quote a few restaurants around the hotel, metro is 8-10min walk away. Wifi good throughout the hotel. Never booking with Ojos del Rio ever again...

Amazing hotel, nice location. Located in quiet part of town without heavy pedestrian or vehicular traffic. Rooms were clean with working wi-fi and air conditioning. Friendly staff. Next time I'm in Panama will definitely book this hotel.

Very good value for a budget traveller

I was always greeted with a warm smile at breakfast each day. The hotel is ideal for anyone on a budget and a short stay in Panama. Metro stop and a huge supermarket very close by. My room was also very clean and spacious.

Nice place and great value! I would stay again.

A nice, clean, economical place in a decent location. Service was great and the rooms are well kept. My only concern was that I found it loud at nights as the windows were older so there was no way to shut out th ed noise. The air conditioner did a fairly good job of drowning out the noises.

The cleaning staff are nice. But the rest of the staff are super unhelpful and rude. The restaurant is a complete ripoff. They have children working there. Unable to speak to customers. They will mess up your order and then blame you. Avoid this place if you’re looking for a place to relax.

The breakfast was not appealing, neither the coffee but I feel maybe you get what you paid for. The hotel prices are very reasonable so you cant go wrong. The room size was not bad at all. The beds were comfy but no hot water, it was just luke warm which was fine for me but not for my husband, he likes hot water and showering was not pleasant for him unfortunately.
