Hotel California — Hotel in Bella Vista

Convenient location near plaza terraza for lunch, dinner and drinks ; and hostel 33 for inexpensive breakfast., as well as the supermercado Rey for groceries and pharmacy.; all about 1.5 blocks away (less than 10 min walk).

Clean rooms, No hassles,good location if you want a less touristy experience. Restaurant on location and less than 6 minute walk to barbershops,street vendor,bodegas,and laundry. I've had very pleasant exchanges w/most of ladies that work here.Hot water could be sometime-ish but It really is not that much of a bother to me.In two minutes after stepping out of Tocumen,I'm sweating and looking forward to a cool shower as soon as I get to the room. Rooms closer to Vía España will of course, encounter more traffic noise.And as in other hotels with noisy ice machines, request a room change if you get stuck next to one.Oh.. and reasonably priced.I'm about eighty percent sure if you call directly and reserve you'll get a...
