Panama Trip Aug 2018
I enjoyed the visit. Wifi was a bit slow... Oh well... It was a good visit.
Neighborhood felt unsafe; facilities were not modern or updated;breakfast provided was standard;staff was friendly but unable to communicate in English without the aid of a translator.
Hostal muy básico, útil si solo buscas dormir. Habitaciones claustrofobias. Necesitan mejorar aseo.

Very basic accommodation
This hostel is located in a residential area of Panama City. There is gated parking for two cars only. The room was bug free and not noisy. The best I can say is that it is very budget friendly and in a relatively safe place for a one night stay.
This is more of a hostel than a hotel. The room we had was small, air conditioned, with cable tv and an adjoining bathroom. The bathroom had a large walk in shower. Furnishings were minimal, but so was the price. The bed was comfortable, the room was clean, and the water got hot.
Breakfast wasn't fancy but it was tasty and fresh. A nice start to the day.
The staff were exceptional, hence the five stars. They were very responsive and always helpful. The driver was ten minutes early to drive us back to the airport. I always felt safe
If you are looking for basic lodging at an excellent price, Pacific Dreams is it.
Es una vivienda que la medio acondicionaron para que parezca hotel, pero jamas volvería. Admiro y respeto el espíritu emprendedor del dueño, pero deberían ser mas transparentes e indicar que es un BED & BREAKFAST.
Las fotografías del sitio publicadas no corresponden a la realidad del lugar. Y pese a que se nota que hacen un buen esfuerzo no es un sitio para descansar a gusto. Hay excesos de ruido, solo 2 espacios para parqueo, tv muy pequeño, pasillos muy angostos, es una zona residencial y no hotelera.
Amazing! Service was great! The front desk ladys are so nice and welcoming, we said we will be back and we did!

Decent but isolated, charges 2X for airport pickup
It was good for the most part. The location is not close to any city attractions. You get what you pay for, so it's not too fancy. The biggest disappointment was that they charged double for airport service than they said in the Hotels.com website. If I knew I would have to spend $30 extra dollars on airport pickup, I would have just stayed at another hotel near downtown which was cheaper, and where you could travel to/from the airport via uber for less money.
The air condition was good but it was dripping water all night, no hot water for shower and I'm pretty sure the linen had not been changed from previous customer
Independente do valor pago na estadia, quem trabalha com o público e quer atrair clientes deveria pelo menos se preocupar com o serviço prestado. Fiz um pernoite neste local, chegando no único quarto disponível, o mesmo encontrava-se repleto de traças pelo quarto e em cima da cama, o lençol e a fronha do travesseiro encontravam-se sujos e com cabelos (que não eram os meus, pois se quer havia deitado ali). Ao sacudir o edredon percebi em cima do lençol branco da cama muita sujeira preta e marrom que, sinceramente, não quis nem analisar o que era. Havia lido comentários positivos sobre o café da manhã, porém, uma ilusão, pelo menos nesta minha experiência. Me ofereceram uma panqueca fria, com maçãs cortadas e aparentemente velhas, já que estavam bem escurecidas, e um pote pequeno com uma colher de chá de aparentemente requeijão e geléia. Para melhorar, o café estava absurdamente frio. Não indico nem para pernoite!

Nice Bed and Breakfast
The rooms are very small but clean. You may have to share bathroom. Not a big fun of what is served for breakfast but thats an opinion. The bed and Breakfast is also close to a bus stop, various restaurant and foodstore

Para estancias cortas y viajes
El hotel está situado en El Dorado junto a una avenida que conecta Tumba Muerto, Albrook, Tocumen y por tanto es muy útil para realizar estancias de paso en viajes a otro lugar.
El CC cercano tiene multitud de servicios.
El lugar estaba en reforma de apariencia.
El desayuno fue sencillo y adecuado.

Decent stay in El Dorado neighborhood
I spent a total of 3 nights here - 2 nights before my trip to Guna Yala (San Blas Islands) and 1 more night when I returned. I stayed in the toronja room (the rooms are named after fruits). It's the standard double room located in the back by the garden & next to the dining/breakfast room. The room had a TV (which I didn't use) and a good, functioning A/C. The room was ok as it wasn't cleaned very well - the floors were a bit dirty & the walls could use a repainting. The bathroom also looked like it wasn't cleaned well. The hot water was also very temperamental - the hot water took awhile to come out & when it did, it was so hot & didn't last long... you had to adjust the shower every time but the hot water would run out quickly. But overall, the room was big & spacious for a solo traveler like me and it did its job. I guess I just expected a bit more, esp. in terms of cleanliness in the rooms, for the price and after having stayed at their sister B&B/hotel in another neighborhood. The breakfast was simple & good overall - eggs, bread, butter/jam, fruit, coffee/tea, juice. The wifi worked very well in the room and all over the property. The staff was also very friendly & helpful.
La posada (no se le puede calificar de hotel) es una casa, no cubrió con lo ofrecido en publicidad. En los 4 días de estancia nunca limpiaron la habitación, ni siquiera cambiaron las toallas ni vaciaron la papelera del baño. Nos cambiaron el jabón una vez porque se lo solicitamos. El desayuno fue muy deficiente. No tiene áreas de esparcimiento. Lo que funge de closet no tiene un solo gancho. No hay agua en la habitación. Ningún mueble para colocar las cosas, tuvimos que colocar nuestras maletas en piso.
El precio por noche no lo vale. Hay cantidad de hoteles mejores en Panamá al mismo precio e inclusive más económicos.
Lo mejor del hotel es su ubicación, El Dorado.
NO VOLVEREMOS. NO LO RECOMENDAMOS.
