Aldo's beautiful apartment is located centrally in Casco. It is within easy reach of everything in the old town, but yet it is quiet during the night and in a secure location. The host was very responsive and flexible. I loved the apartment and in particular to have my morning coffee out on the little veranda.

This location was nice, but be aware they sometimes have protests in the street bellow since the apartment is right by the presidents home. It was extremely loud for about 4 hrs. Just be aware with this location. The apartment was overall comfortable. The only problem was when we would turn the air con on, it would cause the light fixture to bang together, making a lot of noise. It’s very hot in the apartment without AC. So this became an annoyance. Something I hope the owner changes.

Great place. Second time staying here. Will stay here again and again

Excellent apartment is the heart of Casco Viejo. Right on the cathedral square, safe and central to all attractions. This loft style apartment is large and well equipped. Full kitchen, living and dining areas, balcony and half-bath on first level, master bedroom and master bath on second level. Fast wi-fi and efficient A/C make this a comfortable, convenient place. Aldo was very responsive and helpful, an excellent host. Notes: there are over 50 steps to reach the apartment and the bedroom can only be reached by a narrow spiral staircase. Worked well for me but just take that into account. While there is the convenience of a washer/dryer in the kitchen, the dryer does not heat (seemingly no gas) so takes several hours to dry. Nonetheless, this is an excellent choice for visiting Panama City

Aldo’s place is in a great location. The place is spacious with many comforts throughout the house. A full kitchen was great. The bed was comfortable and the air conditioning helped cool off the home for hang out and sleeping comfort. Unfortunately, the place wasn’t cleaned very well when we arrived. The towels, bed sheets, toilets, floors, rugs, table tops were dirty. We spent a couple hours cleaning and washing sheets and towels. It was great having a washer and dryer in the place but the dryer had no heat so we had to hang out everything to dry.

Fantastic location. Right in the heart of Casca Viejo and directly across the street from the Panama Canal Museum. Tons of restaurants and cafes around. Place was clean with lightening fast Wi-Fi. Plenty of hot water in the shower. The only downside is that there is no parking and street parking can be a bit of a dicey situation, and the parking lots around were all full when I got there. Another downfall is that there are no elevators, so hauling the bags up two long flights of stairs can be a pain. But once I was able to get the car situated, I thoroughly enjoyed my stay.

My favorite thing was sitting on the balcony and having coffee, watching the neighborhood wake up and come alive. The furnishings were lovely. Definitely having a washer and dryer were great as was the refrigerator. WARNING! The address in the listing was incorrect. Make sure you call the host and have him talk to your driver directly if the address says only "Via Espana" ---totally incorrect. Have the host's phone # and have him talk directly to driver. Also, ask the host to give you instructions on wifi password, directions for appliances, where to put the keys on checkout. Have him write them down if he hasn't made an instruction book yet. If you have his phone # , you can call for help.
