2BR Condo in Panama City

Ileana

Excellent, 7 months ago

Very good location and service, recommended

​Maintenance and Functionality (1/5): Upon arrival, we discovered one commode was non-functional, requiring having to pour water down the commode to flush one of the toilets, and the second drained extremely slowly. We had serious privacy concerns, as both bathroom windows are uncovered, allowing direct view from neighboring units—we had to shower with the lights off so neighbors could not see us showering. There was also visible water damage on the bedroom ceilings. ​Cleanliness (1/5): The unit was unacceptably dirty. The kitchen was the worst area, with a filthy dishcloth, dirty small appliances, and cups. In the bathroom, the rack holding shampoo and soap was so severely rusted that it was untouchable. Most critically, the pillows in both bedrooms were heavily and visibly stained on all sides. ​Amenities and Accuracy (2/5): The listing was inaccurate regarding essential amenities. Crucially, air conditioning is only available in the two bedrooms, and the main living room and kitchen

This was my first time staying in an Airbnb and if all renters are like Manuel it won’t be the last. He was very helpful I traveled with my brother that uses a wheelchair, Manuel purchase by request a handicap bath chair and took us grocery shopping. After asking if there was anything else we needed to make our stay comfortable we requested a fan and television which was delivered the following day. We stayed for a month the location was great in walking distance of EVERYTHING we needed. The Uber system is excellent which made it easy too get around and the malls aren’t far away. The only concern was the noise from the street traffic, there was a Power outage which is out of Manuel’s control, but it’s a safe neighborhood so can’t get it all, overall we were comfortable and would definitely stay again, thanks so much for making us so comfortable, we genuinely you and wish your place is always rented.

The location although strategic for restaurants and amenities, being in that apartment there is a lot of noise from the claxon there was never silence. The apartment feels in step, a bit worn out of kitchen utensils and white line. We received it very dirty but the host edits it clean when notified. No major inconvenience during our long stay, but cost benefit I recommend to review in detail. It works for a short stay, the living room has no weather but there is good air current.

Manuel was extremely accommodating met us at the apartment with the keys, explained everything, showed us around. The apartment is in an older building that's been renovated. It is large, especially for the price and location. It's in Obarrio area and there aren't a lot of full apartments available there. The location is very central which is good. However it's also located just off two major roads (Espana and Brazil), so there's traffic noise. It's okay after 11pm, but the horn honking starts up around 7am and is constant until about 9am. Starts again around 4:30 and goes to 6:30-7. There's a restaurant across the street that attracts a noisy crowd that goes a bit late. There is parking in a gated garage under the building and there's an electric opener for the gate. You can walk to restaurants and stores nearby. The beds were very comfortable. Air con was a bit anemic -- two 12k units in bedrooms, nothing dedicated to the main area and baths have open windows. Overall, great value.
