Fodor's Expert Review Hotel Puerta del Sol

Just a five-minute drive from David's Enrique Malek Airport, this clean hotel has rooms that sleep up to four people, each with cable TV and private bath. Air-conditioning and tile floors keep rooms cool, but don't expect much in the way of decor or views. There are bars over the windows and most rooms are boxy, dated, and overlook tin roofs or busy streets. Request one of the quieter rooms toward the back of the property. For the price and location, the place is still a bargain. Panamanian and Spanish dishes are served in the downstairs restaurant, as is the popular Sunday buffet.
