Waymore Hotel Spa & Casino
Construction was happening on the 7th floor, was a bit noisy. The hotel does need upgrading so I guess this is where the construction was coming in.

Really nice hotel with helpful staff and located in a very nice, safe area. Plenty of good restaurants, especially the pizza at Lucca across the street!

Ramada Panama Centro Via Argentina
The only problem we had with this hotel is that the rooms are a bit run down and ours was not very clean. Our room seemed to be literally falling apart in some areas. Otherwise the staff was helpful & polite and it’s in a good location.
