I had an amazing time. This hotel helped to make my trip to Panama even more memorable and enjoyable. The room was very modern and immaculately clean with an excellent view. The staff was also extremely pleasant and helpful. The location of the hotel is very central and eating places are within walking distance from the hotel. Would definitely visit again.
