Great Hotel, very friendly and a great breakfast. Newly remodeled and very clean. I liked the layout of watching TV from the couch or the bed by just swivling the TV to the right or left.

OK, this is obviously an older property and there are some things that could be or look better. But everything important worked. Very clean. You are right on the beach with a balcony and the price was low. I would be happy to stay again, especially at the same price.

Access to the beach and the pool they have is what they have going for them. The staff is nice as well. The issues we had was that we seen roaches, the cracks aren't sealed properly. That really bothered me. The beds was ok we checked them for bugs. The shower doesn't have a drain for the tub, the elevator went out of order so that really ****** having to carry our stuff to check out up and down stairs. The front door wouldn't let us lock the dead bolt to sleep. The Ac shuts off so it gets hot while sleeping. Just not happy at all. I also wrote a review while we was staying and let them know the issues nothing got changed or fixed. Also it really needs upgrades the walls o and it was also a dead huge bug in the ac unit.

The front desk person was rude my room was paid in full before I got there she was not friendly or did not make me feel welcomed I called before I got there to confirm with them she told me to call back a hour in a half then the worse I booked and paid for top floor I was not I was on floor 4 and the the elevator did not work that was the worse with having to go up and down the flight of stairs so my stay was a 2 I feel like I should get some reimbursement for the unfriendly staff and the Elevator did not work but I know you guys will not see it like that but that is my review on my stay and it was my Birthday 🥹 I booked with you guys off reviews on your website so I thought it would be great also the bathroom tub was not clean

Weekend staff was excellent! Friendly and accommodating. Rooms with balcony- you’re right on the beach. It was further down, opposite direction from for all the tourist hustle of Panama City. For the price, it was an excellent deal. I have no complaints!

A wonderful old-style beachfront hotel with great views and comfortable clean rooms. The kitchenette was clean and updated, and the beds were comfy. Best part was Tenisha—she helped us with any questions and moved us to a different room when the elevator in our building was under repair! We will return for sure.
