“This place hits the mark for budget-conscious travelers; clean rooms and a comfortable bed are real pluses, especially given the proximity to the metro. I found the no-frills setup - shelf instead of a closet, bright overhead lighting - perfectly acceptable for the price; and its location is pretty convenient. For a quick stay in Panama City, it's a solid choice.”
