Good place to be.

A two night stay before leaving Panama just before all flights were shut down. Services were curtailed but the stay went just fine. Panama City had a 9 pm curfew. I stayed here before and I like this hotel. It is a very good value.

Location good but staff and property needs a lot of improvement worst Hilton hotel experience. Check in terrible I waited over 2 hours as I arrived at 1:30pm and they don't let you check in until 3pm so the Lobby was full as they kept everyone waiting, not even a water I was offer nor they offer to keep my luggage or suggested places to go while I waited. All staff not welcoming, pool have no towels and you have to look or call to get someone to bring you towels as no one in pool area. Room was not service on one of the days I went out all day came back around 5pm and my room had not been done. I'm not satisfied with the experience in this hotel you not even get a bottle of water, a mini fridge with very expensive beverages and snacks. Will not stay here again
