Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

For the persons traveling with a limited budget is a good choice. The price required for a clean and large room in a hotel situated in a very good area of the town is invincible. Maybe explainable at this low price the breakfast included is a joke. The guests must align in a queue and after the room number is checked, receive a plate with a pair of sausages, a portion of omelet, two slices of bread and a glass with juice. Only the coffee and fruit jams are at the free choice.
My experience with the reception stuff was a good one. They were very polite and ready to help if needed.

This was the only hotel in Panama we’ve stayed that it didn’t smell. We were lucky to have a room facing Argentina street, waking up with the sun in our face.
They have a cheap but good bar on the first floor.
The pool was clean and empty most of the time.

The thing to remember is that this is not a five star hotel. So the derogatory comments that I have read about this hotel,can not apply because it´s a three star hotel. Rooms where nice and clean, staff where more than helpful and very courteous.Located in a great part of Panama quiet and safe with a plethora of restaurants and bars with in easy walking distance, The Panama Metro is conveniently located close by. Would have been nice to have an ice machine on our floor, and an extra towel or two. But for the price, its location and convenience a nice hotel,

Too noisy. Other guests had a loud party in their rooms with music, alcohol at 1:30 am.
The guy in reception couldn’t care less as I called twice and they did not stopped the loud party next to our room.

It starts when I requested something twice before my arrival without any answer. Than here works arrogant and not sympathic staff, not so hot water, and the breakfast? Its a joke. You can get a better breakfast in a hostel than in this 4*hotel. Also between doors and floor is a gape which takes a light from a hall straightly in your face so I have to use towels for filling this gape. Hairdryer looked a bit dangerous.

When we arrived we were told there was an issue and there were no rooms available.

No explanation, no call, no notification or email.

Also the photos look 10 times better, than the actual place, no maybe it was for the better.

No toilet paper, we had to ask twice to finally get it. Sonor consolation is very bad. Breakfast is poor. Almost no fruits.
We booked a room with double bed and ed up with two separate beds.
I would not recommend for more than one night.

The price and the cleanliness is the only thing positive. We booked based on the photos in their website. Well these must have been taken years ago but the reality is different. We booked with breakfast, and luckily we had proof. The reception started to argue with us but we held our ground and finally he called his boss.
Breakfast completely different. The only thing on the side table is coffee, milk, jam and butter. We waited 30 min for a plate with 2 toasts, scrambled eggs, a sausage and chemical orange juice.
The room is dimly lit, the safe was hanging on the last threads of 2 screws. The ventilator in the bathroom was out of order. Just 2 thin towels. Bed-lamp without a hood making contact with live wires possible. Beds more or less. Shower door handles loose and have been glued various times. Room door-lock and handle loose.
