I had a great experience with the staff. The shower leaked a little and there was water on the floor after showering. VERY noisy neighbors, the walls were a good sound barrier but you can hear everything through the door. Cleaning staff knocking on doors at 8 am (due to time difference, 6 am for me), was not expected nor appreciated during a vacation. But otherwise, everything was clean and I was pleasantly surprised by the cleanliness and overall value of the place.

Excellent choice and stay

Hotel Centroamericano is a great place to stay. Service and cleanliness was excellent. I would most definitely stay there again. The cost to travel to great restaurants in the city is cheap if using Uber, so things are in proximity radius. The “Metro” station is one block away and very easy to use which you can use to see the city and the big National Mall Albrook. Once again, great hotel and service!

Decent hotel in the heart of everything. Good price and good cooked breakfast. Easily walkable to anywhere you need to eat or catch a taxi. Washer and dryers also downstairs to use for a few dollars is also convenient.
