Highly recommend this hotel. It is centrally located to all the main attractions of San Felipe. I had a nice room with skylights toward the back (very quiet location, room 112). The staff was very responsive to questions I had (they speak English, if you don't speak Spanish). Many restaurants and shops within walking distance of the hotel.

Very nice place to stay, clean, convenient, and a good value. Nice to be in the Old City, but streets seem a little dark and narrow by East Coast USA standards. Wish they had an exercise room.

A wonderful boutique hotel in the heart of old town. The location is perfect and their restaurant is fantastic. The rooftop bar helps recover from days in the Panama heat.
