The accommodations were second to none, probably one of the best properties I’ve chosen. However, the service wasn’t consistent. The front desk staff came off as uninterested in checking me in, but the doormen were awesome. The cleaning staff and the restaurant staff at Salsipuedes were phenomenal, but the spa staff acted as if my friend and I were troubling them when we booked the appointment and upon checking in for the appointment. Finally, the location of the hotel was like in between the hood and the business district….very odd. If I ever come back to Panama, I’d consider other places before booking here.
