Hotel Benidorm Panama

Place is a dump. Staff was not helpful and almost disrespectful when you asked for something. I com- plained to the manager about no wi-fi in room, and he told me he was going to through me out unless I stopped asking him to fix it. Finally got it the last two days there. The restaurant was mediocre. The location is fine, but the hotel was horrible.

The only good thing about this hotel was that the staff was helpful even though they were not bilingual which would have been helpful to know beforehand. The hotel was not in the best location, very close to the ghetto area but close to the supermarket and the boardwalk area. The rooms were small (one single and one double bed when I expected two double beds). The beds covers were horrible and they had no padding on the beds. The pillows were not the best (the famil member who traveled with me workup with neck pains). The bathroom was small (someone over 6 feet would have major issues using the bathroom), the shower leaked, no rug or wash rag. The hotel claimed that visitor had to pay $11 to visit in the room which defeated the purpose of our visit which was to see a family member attending college in the country so we had to hang out in the lobby or outside to visit my family. Save your money and stay in a better hotel if you plan to visit Panama especially if you plan to stay more than one night. One night of this place is all that I would recommend. Even though the building is old they could do a much better job sprucing up the place and make it more charming inside despite the location of the hotel. The bottom line, I will not stay in this hotel again.

was a good deal, cant complain, was easy to find which is a plus. not for families, but great for singles

I think that for almost 60 dollars a day, I could have found a better hotel in Panamá. Terrible location, unfriendly staff, ugly rooms, DO NOT STAY at that hotel, ever.

Well, when you have a long 19 hours lay-over like I did and you are on a budget, then this hotel will suit you just fine. It is easy to find, the rooms are functional and comfy, if a little old and worn and the staff are friendly and helpful. If you come expecting the Hilton, don't bother. As far as hotel's go though, this resembles more a hostel but it does the job.

The area like a slum. The hotel is filthy, noisy and nothing works, no TV, no phone, no wi fi. Towels felt like sandpaper. Checked out after 20 minutes. The WORST excuse for a hotel I have ever been in. Changed room and same problems. I would be afraid in this area at night.. Taxi driver said it is used like a house of ill repute .I would only recommend this hotel to an enemy, never a friend. Stay Away if you are smart.

Well firstly I asked to change room! This was due to the location of the hotel, its on a busy road and its so noisy from local buses and all public transport. I then changed room! problem still not solved, was hearing the lift constantly, people talking and walking through the hotel was a nightmare. It was a sleepless night prior a day of meeting. Not only that the shower screen door didn't close The Air-condition Unit was very noisy & the TV was very smal. This is the worst hotel I have ever stayed in on my travels.

This hotel is not in the best area. I was told it's not safe for me as a woman to walk on my own around the area. The owner is saving every penny, rooms needed to be at least painted years ago. Everything is broken, no windows in the rooms, very noisy, room smelled like it was the smoking room. The bed never smelled fresh, you would never be able to have good rest there. I honestly can say that this was the worst hotel in my life. I don't understand how this could be a three star hotel, it's just not possible. Oh, by the way, there is no English speaking people either, they don't even try to help you. I will never come back to this terrible place again, I liked the country, but not this hotel. Just pay more and don't go cheap.

The hotel is a dirty and I was personnaly shocked . The area is like the brooklyn in the States. Dangerous in the evening and extreemely noisy. We can't sleep. Cars hunk all night long till 5 AM in the morning. Very poor area and dirty. I would not recommend this hotel at all for future travelers. The only thing that was positive about it is that there is a supermarket near the hotel and an internet café. Otherwise it is an awful hotel. For breakfast, I was sent to a hotel nearby to have my breakfast at 6 am. The picture of the hotel and room look OK only on photos but the reality is something else.

I had to spend 19 hours in Panama and needed inexpensive overnight accommodation. Benidorm Hotel fitted the bill and turned out what I expected it to be. Staff and reception was quite good. The TV in my room was not working with the remote and it was quickly changed.
