Good location & View
The interior of the hotel is nice. The room was ok. The view was nice. I could see the city and the ocean. The tv only had shows in Spanish and that was disappointing. This Riu lacked entertainment. Other Riu hotels I’ve stayed in always had lots of entertainment and some were AI. The restaurant/bar 50 Studio was cool. The food was decent and the drinks were on point. I would stay again because it was conveniently located in the city for walking to shops and restaurants. I would just like more entertainment options.

The breakfast had a nice variety of items. There are quite a few restaurants in walking distance. If you would like to go somewhere they can organize transport for you: to Multiplaza mall, to other tourist areas, to the airport, tours etc. We most likely stay there again if we visit Panama.
