I booked this room for my elderly grandmother, who had an appointment at the nearby hospital, along with my aunts. The staff was very kind and welcoming. According to my family, the room was clean, comfortable, and very nice. It made their stay much easier during an important medical visit. I’m grateful for the great service they gave my family!

I like that the rooms are nicely kept bathroom equipped with the necessity for daily use.The staffs are very helpful,breakfast is always on time from 6:00am -10:00am. There were many different shops near-by. You get 2 bottles of water and an expresso machine with coffee and tea items. A fault I had is that there wasn't any iron in the room when it is clearly written in the room description on the app.

The hotel was affordable and offered good value for the price. Breakfast was well organized and delicious. The building itself was okay, and for a short stay of a few days, the room was a decent size and well maintained. However, the bedding and towels could definitely use an upgrade. The location was very central, with a 24-hour supermarket and several restaurants nearby, which was very convenient. Overall, it’s a good option if you’re looking for a centrally located hotel at a reasonable price.

Nice room, great rooftop pool area, friendly staff, free breakfast buffet. Cons: area is pretty shady, don't walk around at night, use uber. Bugs in the bathroom everyday, not terrible but more than my liking. Overall not a bad place, and now knowing the cons, I'd still go back. And a big plus is, it's close to everything. Ubers always between $3-5. Great!

The room was smaller than I expected, it was clean but a few teenagers that I had to keep killing so they wouldn’t go in my things. The staff was polite and kind. Hardly any English but I used Google Translate so it wasn’t bad. The breakfast was okay, they just needed a wider variety and for it to be hot. The outside of the building would make you not book it if you saw it in person but the interior is very clean and nice. The area looks not so safe, but each time I went outside we were safe so don’t watch the location. There is a nice restaurant across from the casino, the food is great there. As well as a burger cart. The burger slack and it’s for $2.50. My overall experience was good I give them a 4 star. Would go back if I’m traveling to Panama again. I do hope the exterior is upgraded though and them teenagers gone.

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
The staff was friendly and we appreciated being allowed to check in early. However, our overall experience was very disappointing. When we entered the room, it was quite dusty, and we ended up cleaning parts of it ourselves, including the bathroom and nightstands. The bathroom also had a strong sewage smell, which was very unpleasant. We had to run the water and flush the toilet multiple times just to somewhat reduce the odor. On top of that, the sink barely worked—only hot water came out, and even that was very minimal. We had to leave the sink running for nearly an hour to get any usable water. The following night, we requested new towels, but they were never delivered. We eventually had to go downstairs to get them ourselves. The in-room phone, which we were told we could use to call for assistance, did not work either. We also chose to eat at the hotel restaurant one evening, which led to additional issues. When paying, my sister and her friend were given incorrect information about the value of the currency and were shortchanged. Additionally, when we ordered the “menu of the day” for two consecutive days, we never received the included dessert. It was only when a different manager noticed and asked about it that we realized it had been missing both times. While the staff may be friendly, the overall quality of service, maintenance, and attention to deets needs massive improvements.

We arrived at your hotel at about 2 PM. Both female desk members sat behind the desk with their heads down and never looked up. Finally, after a couple of minutes I had to say hello. They looked up, went through our paperwork and said we have to wait until three for a room, cause it’s not ready. I asked if we could at least complete the paperwork and pay for the room so they don’t have to do every person in line at 3 PM. she decided to do that and when she completed, she gave us a room. It’s quite obvious it was ready five minutes earlier when she told me to sit down she just didn’t feel like doing anything until 3 PM. The rest of the staff was great. The air-conditioning in the room was horrible. 1009. There was mold in numerous locations in the bathroom, which I took pictures of. Also, the Wi-Fi was poor.This is not the quality I expect from a Radisson/Choice hotels brand establishment.
