巴拿馬城舊城區瑟琳娜飯店 - 青年旅館(Selina Casco Viejo Panama City)

It was extra loud since we were in the private Standard room on the 4th floor. The other reviews were right, it’s like staying at a night club. I managed my expectations given it’s a hostel hotel but def not worth the price. Hopefully the sister property is better. The bedroom floor was so dirty and I wondered if the sheets were 100% cleaned. That said Reception team was nice, and it was in a good location.

The location is great. The micro rooms are VERY micro… tinier than I’ve ever seen at another Selina. The bathrooms were always wet and dirty. Half of them on our floor were closed. When it rained, water came through the ceiling. It’s fine, but not great.

It was a nice experience because I met a lot of new friends there.

Wir waren eine Nacht dort, da wir am nächsten Morgen 3 Nächte San Blas gebucht hatten (los ging es um 5.30 h). Unser Zimmer war im 5 Stock mit Fenster zum Flur. Gardine aufmachen war nicht drin, da sonst jeder reinguckt. Vom Flurlicht in der Nacht mal ganz abgesehen, dass durch jede Ritze reinkommt. Zweite Überraschung waren die Haare im Bett. OK, Augen zu und durch. Da wir früh raus mussten ging es zeitig ins Bett. Doch dann ging die Party im 6 Stock (Pool, Bar und Restaurant) los. Die Musik war so laut, dass man dachte, man liegt mitten drin. Dazu kam noch Stühle rücken und andere Geräusche. Nachdem endlich Feierabend war in der Bar, sind gefühlt alle nochmal duschen oder pieseln gegangen. Alles mit einer Lautstärke die ich ziemlich respektlos empfand. Ach so, unser Zimmer befand sich gegenüber der sanitären Anlagen. Dann ging der Wecker. An der Rezeption wurden wir noch gefragt wie die Nacht war. SCHRECKLICH war meine Antwort. Interessierte aber weiter keinen. Fazit. Nie wieder Selinas. Mussten aber vor dem Abflug nochmal hin. Leider war ein Storno nicht mehr möglich. Siehe andere Bewertung.

The hostal is super cool, the deals at the rooftop bar are great and the drinks are as well. For a single bedroom (not shared) the price is high for not including a private bathroom, but it was neat nonetheless. Awesome food and service.

Selina/Casco Viejo is a hostel, geared to the young. I am far outside their target demographics. It is loud at night, loud enough to have them provide ear plugs BUT it is a great place to stay. Casco Antiguo is a beautiful part of Panama City and the restored restaurants and shops gives the traveler a truly enjoyable experience. Away from Casco, you will find the true heart of a city, with small shops lining streets and locals hurrying about their daily lives. The hotel offers day tours to many places and the guide that work there are knowledgably of the sites, people and traditions. I slept through the noise on the third floor and brought the unopened ear plugs with me as a souvenir (the party is at the rooftop on the sixth) and for sure I will return. I am posting the view from the balcony of Panama City. That alone is worth a night stay.

Ottimo panorama, terrazza stupenda, posizione centrale, vicina alle maggiori attrazioni di Panama. Stanze poste al di sotto della terrazza e quindi leggermente rumorose. Ottimi servizi.

My one night stay was very pleasant. The air conditioning worked very well. The environment of the selina was festive and the staff was friendly. The ascetic was really interesting.

I was there for work, the location is good … the only thing is that I pay for breakfast and there I’ve to pay again due an issue they have. Other that that the staff was good and the rooftop amazing.
