We stayed in California twice on our around the world journey before moving on to Columbia. The staff was nice, the first room we stayed in was a little small, but we made it work and second room was much better appointed so it was better for us. Everything worked great and we had everything we needed, including amenities such... More

Its a great deal right on Via Espana. Its walking distance from Budget rent a car , the Riba Smith ( great super market) and the real "Tailor of Panama" office is a stones throw. Nice relaxing tub on the roof to soak in and a great view of the skyline. More

We moved here from our hostel after being recommended the hotel by other travellers. We wanted more comfort and privacy, and for only $45 per night a double room, this was definitely worth it! The room was on the small side, but very clean and nicely decorated with a simple and modern style. The furniture and bed seeemed new and... More

It has very helpful staff and a lovely rooftop terrace with tables, chairs and a great view of the City. The small soaking pool is very relaxing. They also have a room with several exercise machines.... More

I had an overnight layover in Panama City and booked a room at Hotel California based on Trip Advisor reviews... Below are my thoughts: 1. Cleanliness - The room and bathroom were very clean. The hotel is currently undergoing a renovation, and I believe I was in an updated room. Definitely didn't feel the need for shower shoes, ya know?... More

A basic but well-run hotel. Our double room was very small but had a clean bathroom, quiet air conditioner and a flat screen TV. There was a very small window with no view and we heard a lot of traffic noise as the hotel is located on a very busy street. The location is nothing special but, the price was... More
