Hotel berhampiran Parque Vallarino, Bethania

Llegamos ayer y estaremos aquí hasta el lunes… Desde que llegamos la experiencia ha sido PÉSIMA… cambiadas 4 veces de habitación. La primera en el piso 5 con las camas revueltas, baño sucio, no la habían limpiado … bajamos a recepción nos dieron otra en piso 14… llegamos y la alfombra con pedazos de gypsum, sin espejos, cortinas, respaldares en las camas, sin coffe maker, plancha, secadora para cabello, lámparas … los cuadros en el piso… nos volvieron a cambiar a otra en piso 12 y la habitación estaba peor, sin apagadores, ni grifos en los baños… volvimos a bajar y nos dijeron que ahorita nos daban habitación que tuviéramos paciencia … tuvimos una paciencia de 3 horas y al fin nos dieron la misma habitación del piso 5 pero al menos ya limpia… seguimos sin coffee maker, ni plancha… y el llavín de la puerta no sirve… desde ayer lo reportamos pero no lo han arreglado entonces no hemos podido salir de compras… nos fuimos a desayunar dejando el cuarto abierto, el desayuno terminaba a la las 10 llegamos a las 9:05 am y había fila de gente esperando el desayuno, nos dijeron que ahorita traerían más pero esperamos 40 minutos para que al final nos dijeran que ya no iban a traer más entonces nos fuimos con dos tortillas de desayuno. Bajamos a recepción a las 9:50 a poner la queja del desayuno, la plancha, el coffee maker y el llavín y el recepcionista con muy mala actitud nos dijo que iba a poner el reporte de lo del desayuno pero que no nos hiciéramos ilusiones con la plancha porque no tenían, que el llavín subían en 5 minutos a arreglarlo y ya son las 10:50 y aún no hemos podido ir a ningún lado. Este hotel no está capacitado para tener ocupación completa.

Really good hotel in the middle of what it looks like Chinatown, a lot of restaurants and good places around, nice pool and breakfast was pretty good too. You get the city experience without it being too loud, you can get some traffic since it is in the middle of everything.

Panama House was exactly what I was looking for during my 24hr layover in Panama City. I rented a single private room, though dorm rooms and larger private rooms were available. The very kind woman (I’m terrible with names, or else I would name her) who operates the B&B with her family was extremely helpful to me as I was not well prepared in planning or preparation for my layover. My flight arrived late in the evening and customs took forever, but I called and the woman confirmed I could arrive anytime and assured my check-in would not be troublesome. Luggage lockers were not available in Terminal 2 of PTY, but Panama House very kindly allowed me to leave my bags safely in the B&B while I went out and traveled. I also needed help decided what to do in my short time, and i was on a budget, so the woman at Panama House made recommendations on affordable sightseeing and the best means to get there. Check-out is at noon which was great because I went and hiked in the Metropolitan Natural Park and ate lunch before I had to Uber back to check out. The location of the B&B is great because it is not in the super highfalutin part of town where traffic is a mess, and it centrally located where an uber could get to all the major sights in the same amount of time (Metropolitan Park, Old Panama, Casco Viejo, etc).I wish my layover and time in Panama was longer so I could explore more of the city and experience the great amenities of Panama House including the game room, exercise equipment, outdoor lounge area (cover and uncovered), BIRDS, etc.

Had an extra day to burn will meeting friends and this was a perfect spot to find. In the heart of a city, people everywhere and the street food a block away was amazing. Looked great and had good views of the city

I had a very mixed experience here. When I first got there I got moved to 4 different rooms because in each room something else was broken or falling apart. It almost became comical at a certain point. It seems like they just don't want to take the time to fix the issues in the rooms. The room was nice and spacious and the bed was very comfortable. It wasn't a terrible experience, and the price was good, but this would never be my first choice.

Average hotel but after reading the reviews before booking this place I was disappointed. The rooms are ok but the rooftop infinity pool was a let down, very small and so cold that only a few people ventured in and soon got out also not enough loungers. Breakfast was very basic but I suppose it was adequate to start your day. The hotel is on a very dirty side street but it seemed safe and there are shops and restaurants close by. Personally I would pay the extra and stay somewhere more central.
