Top Barrio Chino Hotel Reviews

Aloft by Marriott Panama

10/10 Excellent

"The room telephone was not operational. I asked the front desk for assistance twice, and it was never resolved. I was trying to order room service. So I had to walk downstairs each time I wanted service instead of having it delivered to my room. I wasn't happy about that."
