First time @ the hotel
Lovely hotel situated in a very safe area of panama , the hotel is a 10 minute walk from the nearest metro station which is safe , regular & very cheap to use
Plenty of dining options close to the hotel
Although theres a few bars nearby the area is fairly quiet
The hotel is nice & modern
All the staff were excellent with a special mention to isis & ceralyn ( think that was her name) on reception whose english & very helpful guidance was well recieved
Good size room & lovely big comfortable bed
Decent cable tv , good wifi connection but the shower was only lukewarm being the only negative
