The staff is bilingual - English and Spanish, and very helpful, especially Eric and Kevin. Our room was small but comfortable and clean. The free coffee and tea was a great benefit. Great location close to the metro, restaurants and a supermarket. Also very safe neighborhood.

Les chambres ainsi que les salles de bains sont sales, l'odeur de moisi persistante est très désagréable en plus d'être malsaine. Heureusement le personnel est agréable et souriant c'est le seul point positif de cet hotel

La atención del personal panameño deja mucho que desear. Excepto por el ayudante de origen indígena del restaurante, quien es muy, pero muy amable, y el personal colombiano del hotel, quienes también son muy agradables, los demás no entregan ni una sonrisa.
