Very basic accommodation
This hostel is located in a residential area of Panama City. There is gated parking for two cars only. The room was bug free and not noisy. The best I can say is that it is very budget friendly and in a relatively safe place for a one night stay.

5 star staff
This is more of a hostel than a hotel. The room we had was small, air conditioned, with cable tv and an adjoining bathroom. The bathroom had a large walk in shower. Furnishings were minimal, but so was the price. The bed was comfortable, the room was clean, and the water got hot. Breakfast wasn't fancy but it was tasty and fresh. A nice start to the day. The staff were exceptional, hence the five stars. They were very responsive and always helpful. The driver was ten minutes early to drive us back to the airport. I always felt safe If you are looking for basic lodging at an excellent price, Pacific Dreams is it.

Decent but isolated, charges 2X for airport pickup
It was good for the most part. The location is not close to any city attractions. You get what you pay for, so it's not too fancy. The biggest disappointment was that they charged double for airport service than they said in the Hotels.com website. If I knew I would have to spend $30 extra dollars on airport pickup, I would have just stayed at another hotel near downtown which was cheaper, and where you could travel to/from the airport via uber for less money.

Convenient but not clean
The air condition was good but it was dripping water all night, no hot water for shower and I'm pretty sure the linen had not been changed from previous customer

Decent stay in El Dorado neighborhood
I spent a total of 3 nights here - 2 nights before my trip to Guna Yala (San Blas Islands) and 1 more night when I returned. I stayed in the toronja room (the rooms are named after fruits). It's the standard double room located in the back by the garden & next to the dining/breakfast room. The room had a TV (which I didn't use) and a good, functioning A/C. The room was ok as it wasn't cleaned very well - the floors were a bit dirty & the walls could use a repainting. The bathroom also looked like it wasn't cleaned well. The hot water was also very temperamental - the hot water took awhile to come out & when it did, it was so hot & didn't last long... you had to adjust the shower every time but the hot water would run out quickly. But overall, the room was big & spacious for a solo traveler like me and it did its job. I guess I just expected a bit more, esp. in terms of cleanliness in the rooms, for the price and after having stayed at their sister B&B/hotel in another neighborhood. The breakfast was simple & good overall - eggs, bread, butter/jam, fruit, coffee/tea, juice. The wifi worked very well in the room and all over the property. The staff was also very friendly & helpful.

Clean and pleasing!
We were to meet people from outside Panama, whose departure was delayed. Emilio and Michael helped us change our reservations at Pacific Dreams, and with the domestic airline, They were more than accommodating and really nice about the confusion made for us and them. Understanding, helpful and friendly. The building was clean clean clean, the beds comfy, the neighborhood quiet, everything worked, and our needs were very adequately met.

8/10 Very good

Staff was friendly, breakfast was good and the place was clean. We slept comfortably, despite being in a room street facing, there was not much noise at night. The only issue that we had was the lack of hot water. After the first few showers, we got used to it-but it would have been a much better experience had the water not always been cold(ish). However, if I was seeking a room on a budget, I would stay here again.

Will be excellent, but needs some work
We booked three nights for a three person room. They were doing electrical work in our booked room, so they added a single bed to a room with a queen. It was cramped, but being backpackers we rolled with it. However, this room was in the front of the house and has older windows. The street noise woke us up many times throughout the night. We informed the host of this and he promises to look into fixing the matter. Now, that's all the bad stuff. They are still working on this place and it's nice. The food in the morning is really good. They will also sell dinner if you wish to stay in, but we used the nice location to make trips into downtown Panama City. The host is knowledgeable and happy to give advice on where to eat, shop, tour. The water faucet was a bit temperamental at times, but we had HOT water in a big shower. Fresh towels and room service daily I might add. You must return your key when you leave the house and if you are driving you must have the host open the gate for you. The inconvenience is offset by the peace of mind, knowing that your valuables are safe in your room, as well as your car from vandalism, theft or accidents on the street. The location is fantastic. It's only about a 20 minute drive into town with traffic. You are not far from corridor norte, highway 1 or highway 3. 30 minutes from the airport. There is a mall within a 5 minute walk. The air conditioning worked marvelously.

Nice hotel/hostel
This was a house in the burbs, which was a nice suprise. Within walking distance to nice mall, grocery store (Reys), and restaurants. Taxi to Metropolitan park was around $6. Casco Viejo is a definate must see. Room was nice and I had the bathroom to myself. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Lounging area was a table under back patio. A couch or chairs would have been nice.

Nice small bed and breakfast
The staff were excellent and friendly room was clean and neat. The only problem I had was the bathroom was out in the hall and it was difficult for me as I am handicapped and inconvenient for me and there was no table or chair in the room. Overall it was a pleasant stay and I enjoyed the staff they were very helpful with my needs. The hotel is located in a quiet neighborhood so there was a restful nights.
