Nunca reserven ahí

Llegue al lugar y resulta que no está funcionando ya hace unos meses. Creo que deben darse de baja para que uno no haga reservaciones, aparte de eso la señora que medio salió a darme información fue altanera y abusiva.

Stuck at the airport? Stay at the crowne plaza!

We arrived at 9 pm due to a 12 hour layover. She would not honor the rate on hotels.com we tried to explain in our unfortunately broken Spanish and she would not budge. She finally gave us a very small room (only 1 ft of space at end, and on one side of the double bed) for $2 over the posted rate, with no blanket or towel. We took it because we didn’t feel like we had a choice.

Mala experiencia

Solamente fue una noche.. por el pecho que pague no puedo pedir mucho más pero, más que un hotel es una casa grande con servicio de huéspedes. Me tocó una habitación que evidentemente estaba ubicada en la parte de atrás o área de servicio de la casa por lo que la estadía no fue muy cómoda

Malísima experiencia. Entre los servicios disponibles menciona estacionamiento al igual que aire acondicionado, cocina compartida, baño privado entre otros. Por el estacionamiento nos cobraron adicional y estando acostados en nuestra cama con la puerta de nuestro baño "privado" abierta entró al mismo un hombre, porque resultó que no era privado sino compartido

We booked and paid well ahead of time through Travelocity. We arrived at midnight, and were told there was no room for us, but that to make up for it they had reserved a room at another hotel several miles away. When we arrived at the other hotel at 1 am, we were quoted a price double to what we had paid at the first! I hope Travelocity makes good in this fiasco and we are reimbursed for the first hotel and for the difference in price!

Room was very clean and comfortable. Staff was friendly and helpful. However, A/C was not working and there was no hot water, the door to the balcony was not locking, and there was no soap or shampoo available (there's no problem with this, however, it was not noted that it was necessary to bring these toiletries).

No English spoken by the fellow at the desk although he tried his best and helped us order food from a local restaurant. He didn’t know his to use the Visa machine and we had to wait till his boss came on duty later in the evening. Room was small and price was higher than listed on website with a couple of extras added in. Shuttle to the airport was more than we had expected considering it was so close. Hard to argue when you need a place for the night.

Worst "hotel" experience ever

Dumas Villas is not really a hotel. It is more of a boarding house, staying in spare rooms of a house with shared facilities. It is in a very seedy area where one would not feel safe venturing out. However, what really marks this out as being a place to be avoided at all costs is the lack of honesty and the aggressive attitude of the owners/management together with the lack of cleanliness. We had booked online in advance for a room at a fixed price. However, as soon as we arrived, before I had even given my name or booking reference the receptionist/manageress, said that that room which I had booked was not available and that we would have to pay a lot more for a room. She got very aggressive when I said that we were entitled to have a room at the agreed price and started making disparaging remarks that my wife and I clearly could not afford the increased charges. My wife asked whether she could be allowed into a room whilst the issue was being sorted out as she was ill, suffering from a stomach bug, which was true. The Manageress called her a liar for claiming to be ill. Only when I told the woman that I was a lawyer did she allow give us a key, to a room which smelled and was so filthy that we slept in our clothes on top of the bed. Next morning another couple had agreed a price with the manager to run them to the airport. When we asked if we could share the car he demanded nearly double the price. The couple told us that their room also smelled and was dirty.

Bueno, bonito y barato!!

El hostel está en medio de un bonito barrio de clase media, exactamente a la par del parqueo del MetroMall, de hecho a solo unos 100 metros (desde el parqueo se observa el Hostel), es una bellísima casa antigua de estilo Colonial, la verdad impresiona agradablemente, la dueña y recepcionista no habla español, así que los que no hablamos ingles tenemos que usar señas para comunicarnos. Las habitaciones son pequeñas pero cómodas, con lo básico, el baño no es privado si no que se comparte con otras habitaciones, la relación precio calidad la hace una opción ideal para ahorrar, el lugar no fue hecho para ser un hotel, si no que probablemente fue la casa de un adinerado terrateniente que la difícil economía Panameña la terminó convirtiendo en un hostel. Claro que me regresaría a hospedar ahí, si llego a volver a hacer gestiones en Ciudad de Panamá. Muy cerca del Aeropuerto y de dos centros comerciales importantes MetroMall y Los Pueblos, y muy cerca de la terminal del Metro en construcción. Recomendado!! Eso si, no hay comodidades para cocinar ni para servirse o consumir los propios alimentos así que ideal para quienes comen afuera, lo más cercano para restaurantes de todo precio es ir a las áreas de comida del MetroMall. Ojo lleven su propio jabón pues en el baño colocan un barra grande para que los huéspedes la compartan lo cual es muy antigénico.

Boa relação custo-benefício próximo ao aeroporto

Estadia em um ambiente familiar. Disponobiliza uma cozinha para uso coletivo bem equipada, com utensílios e eletrodomésticos. Fica a 6 minutos a pé do Shopping Metromall - há um acesso para pedestres do bairro. A proprietária foi bem solícita e forneceu todas as informações úteis para a nossa estadia. Próximo ao aeroporto, com acesso fácil até lá. Único senão foi a falta de um quarto com banheiro privativo, mesmo tendo sido essa a nossa opção. Mas, de qualquer forma, ficamos satisfeitos com a nossa estadia. Excelente custo-beneficio.

The taxi driver and I had a hard time finding this place. Okay place to just spend the night. The rooms are clean and comfortable enough. They provide towels to use but they shed lint. There is hot water which was wonderful. Be aware that if you reserve a room on Expedia, when you get there they may say that that deal is booked and will require you to pay more. It was supposed to be $25 for a private room with private bath but when I arrived, the woman at the front desk said they were all out of rooms for that deal. She put me in the shared room with shared bathroom, asking for $35. Luckily, no one else was staying in the shared room that night so I had it to myself. It was a bit loud downstairs at night as the family uses the kitchen area and there are kids. I had also paid them for a taxi to the airport in the morning for $15 but you can take a taxi or uber for about half the price but I found out after I had already paid.

They did not pick me up at the airport as confirmed both by phone and whatsapp. Before booking, I took the time to make sure they had the shuttle service available to pick me up at 2:00am. They were very nice both on the phone and Whatsapp and I do have the written confirmation for the pick up. Some hours later, I am in Panama waiting... I write a message saying my exact location to receive and answer saying “transportation is not available, take a cab.” Hell NO! That wasn’t what we agreed to before booking with them. The shuttle was key on my decision. I found it extremely disrespectful and negligent. FYI a taxi driver at the airport told me this place didn’t have airport shuttle transportation right before I wrote to Dumas to send my exact location. This makes me believe they use the shuttle as a hook to get the booking and from there many people I guess just takes the cab. As a female, solo traveller I was not going to do that in a country I do not know at 2:00 am!

La peor decisión que se puede tomar!!! Te prometen un precio por esta vía y cuando llegas vale casi el doble. Además si pagas con tarjeta te cobran 10% de más. Horrible The worst decision that can be taken !!! They promise you a price in this way and when you arrive it's worth almost double. Also if you pay with a card they charge 10% more.
