Reviews for Hotel El Limbo

Review 1:Cochroach, mold in the bathroom and not that clean Most of the staff do not speak english

Review 2:We had a nice stay and the staff helped to arrange nice breakfast for us since it was my partners birthday Great location in bocas

Review 3:the rooms are showing much wear with rot in windows and poor workmanship but is doable for the price and location. Beds are hard but the hotel staff was very accomodating and upgraded our room to view the bay as opposed to the road. Not sure the competition in town but we were okay with the place.

Review 4:Excellent attached restaurant that served excellent indonesian food. Cold A/C and very good service.

Review 5:The staff is careless, don't seem to know anything about the island And slow in doing things.

Review 6:They at least have a great restaurant below. But very expensive

Review 7:Upstairs area had a very damp smell which some may find unpleasant , however room fine. Generally the reception staff weren't over friendly , as seen in other reviews. Breakfast ,small selection , no variation.

Review 8:Proximity of Hostel to Marine docks , a very short walk then required. Fruit / coffee was good at breakfast. A/C in our room was particularly good. Restaurant quality of food , very good.

Review 9:Noise. Music from lounge and loud upstairs. Wifi was sloooowwww. Bed was two beds pushed together..

Review 10:For being right in the heart of a party town, it was loud at night. No room view... Just a roof. Shower was warm. Wifi worked. Nothing special and over priced compared to others we stayed in.

Review 11:The free breakfast needs to be either improve or not offered at all. Three days of cold eggs, hot dogs and bread that needed to be covered with something since the flies where busy molded lemon cake and a few pieces of fruits. In my opinion there should be a better Varity of fruits availability c'mon its Panamá , and the breakfast choices should include yucca, ojaldas,plantains or some other naïve known dish. I strongly recommend the corner restaurant right in front of the hotel for $3.50 you'll get a nice meal an coffee.

Review 12:The location was the best.

Review 13:No water on various days (I got stuck with teethbrush, soap on the body etc) at different hours Cleaningness of the site is only ok The rooms are old and many things are worn out the stairways smell really badly (maybe due to very old carpet) a 1,20m bed for a couple is even in a good relationship somewhat tight, matresses are not comfortable the breakfast buffet was really thin

Review 14:View to the sea

Review 15:Stuff totally ignorant with no customer oriented approach. At breakfast only we and stuff didn't bring coffee at all. I had to manage it by myself. At check out they have invoiced us with higher rate and I had to disputes wit them. Big noise till late night from the discotheques around , interior very tired and dirty bathroom.

Review 16:Breakfast on the stage with sea view

Review 17:The rooms could use a little updating. No hairdryer in room.

Review 18:The Hotel is very close to everything. It has a nice restaurant. The buffet breakfast which was included in the price of room was very adequate. Guest Services was accommodating with a room change upon request.

Review 19:Bad: shower took some patience to manipulate- either too hot or too cold.

Review 20:Good: Located in center of town- with easy access to everything. City view balcony or ocean view balcony rooms are both good. Staff friendly. Nice view from restaurant.

Review 21:it wasn't value for money, very loud during evening&night; instead of street view, there was no view at all-only roof, no sky; deposit box didn't work

Review 22:breakfast is very good, room was clean.

Review 23:Not being able to flush the toilet paper.

Review 24:Our room had a balcony that overlooked the water, the restaurant food was good and the staff was helpful and accommodating.

Review 25:Service was a little slow at times but then again everything is Bocas is slow compared to home in Chicago

Review 26:The location is perfect. It is right in the cross roads of the main strip in town. They added an addition to the hotel with some additional outdoor seating for the restaurant over the water, which was well done and had a cool vibe. One of the owners introduced himself and gave us a lot of history about Bocas and gave us a few ideas of things to do in town before our departure to red frog beach. The hotel itself is good - not great, but very good for Bocas. Food is also good and I would say one of top 5 places of Bocas.

Review 27:Bathroom was narrow which made it difficult to sit down and get up from the toilet.

Review 28:Cute older hotel located In town, walking distance to everything. Air condition worked great! Restaurant's food was fantastic .

Review 46:The staff were very friendly! They helped us a lot. The rooms are very simple but that's what we were looking for in bocas: a clean place to sleep and to have shower, a comfortable bed and the best location in town. It's a good cost/benefit relation.
