Home away from home

Mediterranean Dream is the classic bed-and-breakfast experience, this time in Panama City, Panama. Situated in a quiet residential neighborhood, the converted home is just a few walking steps away from the many restaurants and shops of the El Dorado district. Hosts Alejandro and his wife Irena are very friendly and helpful and did everything they could to make our stay enjoyable, including preparing nice breakfasts for us when we arose. It's a great home base for your adventures in Panama and Alejandro, who speaks English, can help you with arrangements and recommendations. The rooms are clean and comfortable and each one features a fruit-related theme, a nice touch that helps add to the character of the place.

Nous avons eu très peur car des personnes bizarres entraient ... hôtel de passe ? Nous avons exigé de nous mettre en relation avec votre agence, imposible ! Nous avons exigé de nous mettre en relation avec un hôtel convenable et nous sommes arrivés à l’Hotel Continental d’où je vous ai envoyé un courrier vous demandant des dédommagements .

I just needed a reasonably priced place for the night due to a very long layover between flights. The place was clean, and comfortable. If you are looking for a place with frills, this isn't it. The young man met me and didn't know English. we discovered Google Translator. He made sure I was awake (because I had a very early flight), helped me get the uber which only cost $12 to and from the airport, had a cup of coffee, an apple, and a cookie for me. I wasn't expecting anything so that was pretty cute. I would return.

Not too bad, but no good either

We cannot say that the hotel is completely bad but we have no good things to say about it either. The people who worked there were nice, but they were not cozy. The pictures of the room announced do not match the current reality. Most likely they were taken when the hotel first opened, but now the conditions of the room just aren't as neat as in the picture. But not too bad either, it is ok to sleep The breakfast served was very poor, the lady served us a sandwich made of corn with ham and cheese and a cookie. That was all. Nobody came to see if we liked it or if we wanted more. The location of the hotel is also ok, not great, but not too bad. We most likely would not stay there again.

I last stayed here a few years ago. They have upgraded a room I stayed in before. It was o.k. before, but now it's much nicer. Do remember to include taxi fees in price comparisons.

El Hostal es aceptable para el precio por noche, aunque el aire acondicionado las primeras dos noches no servia bien, le hicieron mantenimiento y mejoro un poco.
