Never again
I'm not demanding when it comes to a hotel at this rate, but this one just doesn't even cut it. The room I got was moldy, stinky, and very run down. The restroom smelled foul since the drain was right there. The ceiling in the room had wet stains all over; the phone didn't work (not that I needed it, but still); wires were run on the wall as if a beginner electrician had done the job; the staff was very rude (and yes, I'm fluent in Spanish so I could easily communicate with them); even though my booking included (and I paid for) breakfast, I was denied it the first few days since the restaurant and hotel people (same owner) hadn't worked out how to deal with charge back or something weird. One person told me the hotel and the restaurant staff didn't get along while another person simply told me "sorry, we don't include breakfast anymore." On the 3rd day, I went to the restaurant and was actually given breakfast without a problem. It was someone else at that time. It just seemed like people only bickered with each other and didn't communicate with one another or cared about their customers' needs. I demanded to talk to the owner but every time I was told he'd be there, he never showed up and had an excuse. I stayed in Panama for a week, but fortunately, I didn't book the hotel for the entire week - lucky me!

Very Bad
I am in Panama for 4 days for school. This hotel is very bad the staff is very good. The bath room my toilet seat cover is on the ground. The shower is not clean; I am going to tell you that I won’t back my money. No, what I need is this sends someone to check the hotels before you book them because what happen to me is not go. Never again

I was looking for something super-simple. A bed where I could crash onto after a day enjoying the city. The price of Covadonga attracted me. My first impression when I got there was scary: the police car was blocking the street, transvestites were screaming and a couple of ''soldiers'' (dressed like that) were hanging rifles. I thought to myself ''today is not my lucky day''. When I got to the hotel reception I was sure of that! the lady was nice with me, saying that she did not recommend me to go out after 6PM. I was starving... she escorted me two buildings away, in order to let me into the Cassino (through the emergency exit) to go to the restaurants area. I was a nightmare. everyday it was the same. They have pigeons living under each hotel room... and they can be very noisy at early mornings. I slept dressed the way I was. The sheets were disgusting.

Definitely Not Impressed
The hotel did not feel safe. Most of the advertised features do not exist. There is no private beach, no in-room safe etc. The location is rundown and seedy. The shower was a hosepipe sticking out of the wall, with only cold water. The window looked out at the next room from behind bars. Only the breakfast was reasonable.

For staying in Panama City, this was a cozy place compared to staying in a hostel. You get a nice bathroom with a shower and sink. A TV with many channels and a clean bed to sleep in. The ladies were very nice who work there. My only complaint wod be the neighborhood scene, kind of sketchy with a lot of "women looking for entertainment " but other than that we felt safe. There is a great 24 hour restaurant two blocks away that had great food and great service, I highly recommend it.
