Hotel Faranda Soloy in Panama was clean and had helpful staff. However, rooms lacked basic amenities like bottled water and a microwave. The breakfast menu wasn’t suitable for me—rice and beef liver didn’t feel like a good choice. Additionally, the surrounding area felt high-risk, so caution is advised when going out. Overall, decent value with room for improvement.

My mom and I had a somewhat comfortable stay at the hotel, it was clean and the staff were all helpful and professional, the restaurant downstairs was a major convenience to us and it was close to great stores. However, on my last day there I got too comfortable and left my purse in the room to reheat my food at the restaurant I didn't realise until I was at the airport to buy stuff that my money was missing. My assumption is that the cleaning staff stole it, on another occassion we had a scare, late afternoon we came back and found our room was left open with all our stuff out in the open. Upon returning home we noticed a few of our items missing. Overall we had a good stay but ensure you secure your belongings.

Disliked: Amenities
I had to think long and hard before I gave my honest opinion on this hotel. Overall, the hotel has an average offering. Attention to details is lacking in ALL areas: The check-in process, it took 3 persons to check me in. The breakfast (buffet), I stayed there for 7 nights and was served powdered eggs and hot dogs 6 mornings repeatedly. Room service: Why was I finding stands of long hair on my pillowcases and seeing bottle caps under the bed on the first day of check-in and upon departure the bottle caps were still under the bed? (Which tells me that the rooms are not thoroughly cleaned when guest change. In terms of the location, the hotel is directly opposite a 24-hour grocery store which is perfect to go get your necessities. There is a casino next door as well for entertainment, the boardwalk is a 5 min walk from the hotel (must go at nights for an amazing view) and a police station is a block away. 👍 The roof deck experience was very questionable. From construction happening on the top floor, they could have blocked the windows so customers wouldn't have to see it. The pool didn't appear to be that sanitary as the water level was below the jets and there was a dark line around the top. Furthermore, seeing one of the general workers sweeping around the pool with a broom to move the water from the rainfall and seeing the water going in the pool was certainly not that inviting at all. On a positive note, the view from the rooftop is EXCELLENT at night.
