The hype
Great location and breakfast, but the rooms and plumbing show their age.
Plaza Paitilla Inn
$67-141 / nit
Reserva-ho si You want a centrally located, budget-friendly base with killer views of Panama Bay and a massive breakfast buffet.
Per Què Agrada Tant
- Panoramic views of Panama Bay and the city skyline
- Direct access to the Cinta Costera walking path
- Massive, high-quality complimentary breakfast buffet
Vista ràpida: The views and location are spectacular, but you'll have to overlook some dated room elements, slow drains, and occasional musty smells on lower floors.
Revisat per @gabrielamarulanda: My stay at Plaza Paitilla Inn was exactly the peaceful urban escape I needed. Walking into the room and seeing that massive city view for the first time took my breath away. It felt like my own private sanctuary above Panama City.
