Downtown Suites

The property is a bit rundown. It was clean, but many tiles were pitted and broken in the floors and walls in the shower. The wind howled through the window and the door because there was such a huge gap between the door and door jam.

Jose was very helpful. I appreciate all he did for me.

The location is fantastic; it is in the heart of Boquete, making it easy to get to restaurants and the fairgrounds. Parking is included, so there is no need to worry about it; however, because we were there during high season, the staff was renting out the available parking spaces to visitors, and we would occasionally lose our parking spot; they did provide another one in front of someone else's room, but it is still a comfort to have your car in front of your own bedroom, rather than someone else's. The garden was lovely and well-kept. We traveled with our two dogs and it was great to have a place where they could go potty and walk. Other guests had pets, so we took turns letting our dogs out; it was a great experience. Our issues were with the cleanliness and the beds. To begin, there was a mat in the front door that we accidentally moved when entering the room for the first time; it had so much dirt underneath it that we didn't know what to do. Inside, there was a carpet in the living room area that we moved to make room for our dogs' beds, and it was terrible; it was the same as the front door mat, there was so much dirt under the carpet that we had to push some of it back under the carpet and clear the floor with wet paper towels. This was a very disappointing experience; they should vacuum the rooms. The bed was hard, which I found uncomfortable, but this could just be a personal preference. The sofa bed was not comfortable, but I'm not sure what one can expect from a sofa bed. Everything else was great; we stayed for a few nights and appreciated having a mini-kitchen area; the fridge was medium-sized; there was a coffee maker; and a small table stove with dishes, a pan, and a small pot. It was wonderful to have all of these little extras; they were extremely useful to us. I would recommend the location, and we would stay there again; however, for our own peace of mind, we would bring a broom.
