    The rooftop terrace is quite nice. It's rather small but I was lucky enough to be the only one there. 24/7 store across the street.

    The staff were exceptionally helpful to a newcomer to Panama City. The room was clean and the shower was hot with good water pressure. There was a mini supermercado and a bakery nearby. Great value for your money.

    El personal fue amable, te permiten guardar tu maleta, si vas a moverte a otra ciudad por unos días eso ayuda mucho. Muy limpio y la habitación bien acondicionada, cerca de la estación de metro, restaurantes y supermercado. Todo bien.
