Best location! Get the bayview room. Great value

Location, location, location! Simply the best location for that area being that you can walk to Cinta Costera and Ave de Balboa. Literally just steps down from the hotel make a left, walk a few steps and you are at Cinta Costera to enjoy the beautiful walkway and jogging or running path. I even walked down to the fish market way down at the other end. I could’ve rented a bike and rode all the way to the Amador Causeway. On Sundays, they close off the avenue de Balboa from 6 am to 12 noon and make it a bike path only. You can rent a bike for five US and one dollar for the helmet for all those hours. And ride along all the way up the Amador Causeway and back. The hotel food is very affordable and tasty. You do have to wait sometimes for the food because they’re making it fresh but if you are patient, you will get what you want. Our sever for most of the night was Neftali. Very nice young man. We also met Tomas who is the photo person. He greeted us so nicely and gave us good tips on what to do.

The staff at the Plaza Paitilla are friendly and helpful. Our room on the 14th floor had a great view of the city skyline and the bay area. There is a walking trail accessible nearby that will allow you to walk as far as you wish. If you plan to stay here, here are some things you should know ahead of time: The property is a little isolated. There aren't any dining options nearby. Although the hotel does serve breakfast, the only option for evening is a sports bar. There's really no place to just enjoy the scenery and have a great cocktail or listen to music. If you want a view of the ocean, this area of the bay only has water at high tide. The rest of the time, it's rocky and muddy.
