The property was good, but I could still smell mold on floor 7, and when you order the food at the pool, it reaches you cold

Ramada Panama Centro Via Argentina
Location and parking was convenient. The breakfast offered was very good. Check in was very easy. The staff was very helpful. Gym was small, pool was small, we did not have an opportunity to use them. Room and clean and spacious.
