the hotel itself was really cute. we loved the room itself, but the exterior bathroom had cockroaches. overall, the room (for the external bathroom) was really clean and nice, but the bathroom, with the bugs at night, was not the best. loved the location as well.

Broken Marble steps that the hotel could not repair because of it being a Heritage site. Small rooms. Noisy streets in Caseo Viejo. Rooms don’t have good lighting and the shade was broken. Staff however were good and accommodating.

The room was nice, once we had running water all was good. Lost power in the early evening but it came back on relatively quickly. There was an all night celebration going on down the street so lots of noise but otherwise a very nice hotel!

Tbh it is hard to rate because the staff and location were great. The problem that is easily solved by black out curtains almost ruined the time we spent there. We were in room 4 which is on the corner with a huge and bright street light shining directly at you all night. Additionally the windows are at street level so everyone standing on the corner waiting for taxis etc is literally at eye level with you inside the room. The curtains are see through and don’t quite stretch enough to cover the middle and both ends. You have to decide if you want a gap in the middle or on the ends. The room was so bright we had to put towels up over the curtains to try to cut the direct light. Even that did not stop the room from being daylight bright all night. For us we are out all day and the only reason to have a hotel is for sleeping so this was really bad. Invest in black out curtains and I’m sure your guests will give you a most excellent ratings.

The Magnolia is perfectly placed in the heart of Casca Viejo in Panama City. It’s also a very short drive (10 min) to the Miraflores Visitor Center to see the Panama Canal. It’s incredibly walkable. It’s a five min walk to all the attractions in Casca Viejo. I also found it easy to get picked up and dropped off for ride share apps (Uber). The hotel offered a pick up/drop off service from the airport. I used the service to get from the airport to the hotel so that I wouldn’t have to worry about transportation first thing. It would have been simple to just call an Uber and it would have saved me about $20. Ubers in Panama City in general are very easy. The hotel also offered a daily walking tour of Casca Viejo (tips only). This tour was great! It was about 2.5 hours. It left the lobby at 9:45 am. Walked all over. This may have been the highlight of my stay. The hotel was nice. It was clean, the beds were firm, the bathroom had shampoo and body wash. It felt slightly dated but not dirty. There was a shared kitchen space so all guest could cook, use the fridge or freezer, use the appliances, share ingredients/spices, etc. I didn’t use the shared kitchen but I think that’s a cute idea. There was tea and coffee offered every morning in the shared kitchen area (there was not a coffee maker in the room). The staff were nice and gave me information about where to eat a few times. They offer luggage storage, which we used twice without any problems.
