The property was in repair and didn't notify us until we were there staying for 4 nights that the pool would be closed. We got a suite on the canal view so payed top dollar. There is a smell of septic when we walked in the hall to go for breakfast. Also at the pool area. The new staff are amazing kinds and helpful. The staff are not around on Sundays. The pool towels were non on that day told a staff and took 2 hrs to find more. Breakfast is nice but the meat options are very Panamanian. Not up to hotel standards for around the world. We pay for the breakfast at least some bacon ocationaly would be nice. We tried the lunch in the hotel it was not that good. Cocktails are very overpriced. We have been coming to this hotel for 18 yrs sometimes twice a yr. And did find the place cleaned up somewhat. Shuttle service to airport was very good priced properly and very new cars and nice drivers. Overall we would try again . Hopefully new management sort out the issues.

Room was not ready at check in time. Had to wait 40 mins after check-in. Service at the front desk needs to be improved. Otherwise the room itself and other staff members service was fine.
