Stayed Aug-Sept 2010...Staff very friendly..called from the States before arrival date and was treated with upmost respect and promptness. My husband and I are planning to return for Christmas holiday. The transportation provided #40for a price#41 by the hotel to sight see was reasonably priced and we took advantage on a daily basis..a discount for frequent use would have been nice but we didnt expect it so wasnt disappointed. All and all the hotel was more than we expected and is on our list of places to stay. We told all our friends and hope they will take advantage.

Inflexible

Tried to call the front desk of the Country Inn regarding my reservation because the online travel website phone number is an international call and kept me on hold for a long time. The operator transferred me without saying so, and so after 2 minutes of hearing nothing I though I had been disconnected and I called back. They then answered and said I had been on hold.... They passed me to X, the Gerente de turno, who was very inflexible and said I had to take things up with online t ravel website itself. My advice is, do not prepay for hotel reservations. You tend to get better discounts when already in the country and looking for last minute specials at hotels with lots of availability, without running the risk of losing prepaid nights.

We would not have enjoyed Panama as much if we had stayed at a different hotel. We had a room with a balcony view of the Canal and the bridge and it was incredible, worth every penny. The breakfast every morning was good, especially enjoying it poolside where we could watch the ships go by. TGIFridays serves meals and drinks poolside as well. The Causeway begins in front of the hotel and is great for a walk or jog. One downside- the hotel is not walking distance to anything, so if you don't rent a car you have to take a taxi out for every meal, unless you want TGIFridays for every meal.

Lack of bang for your buck

The hotel itself is located in town on a busy intersection. The cab fare runs approx. $ from the airport. When checking into the hotel make sure you get a room in the front. We had a suite which was located on the backside of the hotel and they are building a tall building behind it which means you can't get a view out your windows. There is a cement wall located 4 feet from the windows. No outside view from the back. The only view we had is when we opened the front door and seen the alcove. We requested to move to the front and the only rooms there are single rooms, which are rather small. The hotel is attached to TGI Fridays which makes night time meals easy to get. It mostly appeared to be a locals hotel but at TGI Fridays you can meet other nationalities. The buffet in the morning was nice. For the price they charge I expected more amenities and at least a window I can open. Pool had foggy water in it and no one used it for the 3 days we were there. Staff was friendly and professional.

I got the impression that the hotel was doing me a favor by allowing me to stay here. They were not friendly or helpful at all. Location is good and convenient. It is away from the hustle of downtown but close enough to get there quickly by car or taxi. They provided a breakfast buffet which was not very good. There is a TGI Fridays located next door which was decent. Room was supposed to be non- smoking but had the smell of stale cigarette smoke. Nice sized room but did not have a safe for valuables. "Garden view" was a view of parking lot and oil storage tanks. Would not recommend staying here.
