    Mold - prepare for an upper respiratory infection.

    Mold, oh did I mention MOLD! If you don’t like MOLD, do not stay here. If you love MOLD - you have found your home. It is simply awful.

    Stay at Panama

    The hotel was located in an excellent area. The breakfast was really good. The hotel was really nice. However, prior to booking I enquired about ñate checkout as we had a 941pm flight. I was told there would be complimentary late checkout until 5pm. When we got there, we were told we had to pay $90 usd for the extra six hours per room which was almost the same cost as pur one night stay. We did not budget for this. On top of that, we were hustled out of the room. I am not sure we would stay here again or recommend it. That didn't sit too well with us.
