We left the same night. There was so much noise. People banging in doors, screaming, going to several floors creating a ruckus. It wasn't dangerous, just annoying. We were tired and the noise went on for an hour before we left. We called the front desk to see if they could stop it. It continued and was constant.

When I arrived, the room was dirty, there was snot on the wall, and the bed was all stained. The elevator sometimes worked and sometimes didn't. I had to use the stairs several times, nine floors. Breakfast came in a bag, the orange was rotten, and the yogurt was spoiled. It wasn't a good experience.

Room was good. Only thing was wishing there was ability to make a cup of coffee in the room. I guess i have become spoiled in that it so often available with most hotels I stay. Other than that, I biggest disappointed probably lies with HOTELS.com since I booked this because of the location and complimentary breakfast. Then, upon check in, came to find out it would be $20 for the two of us. Trying to find out what happened on Hotels.com help line resulted in a wasted 20 minutes before I was disconnected

Everything was clean and staff were friendly. It felt like a safe place. The breakfast was too simple. On previous stays they provided a wonderful breakfast. After we ate Toscana we had to go somewhere else to finish our meal. The shower was pitiful. There was so little presure it projected only about 6 inches. Nevertheless our stay was pleasant.

Never got it fixed. I had messages she never told me. My lawyer personally had to come and tell me that my room phone was not working. He said that he called the desk several times then he came to pick me up. He spoke to her and stated that she was rude to him as well. Will never stay there ever again.

While not luxurious, the Toscana is a good, nicely priced choice in Panama City. It's in a good area of the city, within a safe walking distance from many shops and restaurants. Many hotels in Panama City have raised their prices dramatically since the pandemic settled down, but the Toscana seems to be holding their price at a reasonable level.

Toscana Inn has changed since my last stay. The food service is not as good. The staff, however, was friendly and helpful. Toscana Inn is quite centrical and close to the Metro.

Great place to stay!

Pros:
Everyone here is amazingly friendly. Most of the staff speak some English.
There is a lovely veranda on the 6th floor where you can sit out in the air.
It's walking distance to countless restaurants, a Rey’s supermarket, a bakery (the daily fresh bread is amazing), the Metro, a laundromat ($10 will get you a full basket of clean clothes delivered to the hotel), a barbershop, a medical clinic, and a pharmacy.
There was not a lot of bar or traffic noise.
There is covered, secured, parking.
They are very focused on safety and health: There are wall-mounted hand sanitizers by the elevators, they took both elevators out of service briefly while we were there for maintenance, and the housekeepers absolutely scrub every floor and hallway.
The sheets are high quality – not scratchy, and the pillows were not overstuffed.
The front desk guy found us cheap covid tests for our return flight.
The hotel has a restaurant that serves a hot breakfast and is also open for lunch.
Cons:
They only heat the water in the mornings. But in the evenings the water was still comfortably warm.
The Tocumen Airport has better toilet paper.
The room safe couldn’t be opened – it was locked shut. The ‘business office’ is a small room with one computer and two chairs, but you can use the printer at the reception desk.
I had several items of clothing disappear from the room after housekeeping was there, but the laptop, kindle, and smartphone were totally out in sight and never had a problem.

Very pleasant stay.

We stayed at Toscana Inn several years ago and were happy then as now. Because of COVID the breakfast buffet is replaced by a served hot breakfast. Our room was comfortable and clean, staff was very friendly and attentive to us. We would stay again. We like this location because it is close to restaurants and shops we like.

I was asked to change rooms 2 times, 405, 406 than finally to 407. There were no blankets in the room just a top sheet. The wifi did not work. It was an older building which I did not mind but really thought it could have been much cleaner. There was thick dust on the phone lamp shades and just felt a bit dirty. Staff was friendly though.

Great staff, right price

The Toscana Inn is one of my preferred places to stay in Panama City. El Cangrejo has a nice assortment of stores and restaurants as well as places to stay. The location is also near the financial district so you are a short distance from major banks and immigration firms.

The hotel has most of what you need at a reasonable price. There's comfortable beds, free wi-fi, a restaurant in the lobby, an in-room safe and mini-fridge.

I was most impressed with Rodrigo, the daytime front desk person. He's fluent in English, customer-friendly and willing to offer his best price. I had some special needs due to an overnight bus ride and he not only was willing to hold my luggage in the lobby before check-in but actually found a room I could stay in before the check-in time.

The Toscana Inn reduced my stress level during an emergency short-notice trip and I appreciated their willingness to find solutions for me.

I traveled from the countryside of Panama to spend only for a place to stay. I was surprised with the cleanliness and staff attention in this place, aside of it’s cheap cost. It is located in a very central place. Definitely a place where I’ll come back anytime. Very nice place.

for me, a good and convenient place to stay over for 1 night for a connecting flight.
Accommodation includes a tastefull breakfast with fruits, tea, coffee, cornflakes, bread, saucages, etc.
Trip from/to international airport costs about 15 US dollar one way (hotel receptionist was so helpful with arranging for me) for a private taxi. 'Collectivo's\" are a bit cheaper.
Good, clean room. Quiet place but close to shopping streets.

Mixed Feelings

After reading many, many reviews of various hotels listed on Expedia, there were quite a few that pointed out the helpful staff at Toscana (apparently more helpful than at other hotels)...and I agree. The front desk staff bent over backwards to help with a room upgrade, taxis, tours, airline check-in, and a multitude of questions. I can’t thank them enough for putting up with me!

We appreciated the breakfast each morning, the all-day coffee, and the staff was always willing to refill our water bottles.

Also read in the same reviews, were comments about the overall quality of the hotel. I had never been to Panama, so I have no other local hotels to compare to this one. But, based on other hotels in other parts of the world, I was a little disappointed in the hotel room itself. The bathroom was small and in need of supplies as well as fixture upgrades. The tile floors were routinely dirty, so the bedding became dirty easily.

As for location, we found Toscana to be in an area of town where we felt safe walking several blocks away to the Main Street where many shops, fast food restaurants, and grocery stores could be found. There are fun little Mom and Pop restaurants on the same street as the hotel as well as on surrounding streets.

A little disappointed

I have been in similar price range with more satisfaction. Little bit dated. The room was hot when I got there. When I asked in the front desk I got an explanation not an apology. The breakfast was okay, but basic; the attention there was okay, but nothing special.The front desk were helpful when looking for local area information. At the end the card that turns on the AC and lights didn't function; I had to finish my packing in the darkness. I just hope that the hotel from my previous visit won't be booked when I visit Panama City again.

Acoustically transparent walls and other nits.

I stayed at the Toscana twice (one night before and after a scuba diving cruise to Malpelo Island). In addition to the acoustically transparent walls, the lack of attention to the little things really detract from this hotel. On the first stay, I was kept awake most of night by the snoring of the guest in the room next to mine. On the second stay, I could hear normal conversation and the TV in the adjacent room, which was not only annoying but at all hours.

Instead of salt shakers in the restaurant, the Toscana has the paper envelopes like those at fast food places. There's only lukewarm water available starting in the late evening (around 9 pm) and lasting until early morning (guessing 5 am).

The shower stall for my second stay leaked and after a shower, the bathroom floor would be partially flooded.

While there is some charm to staying at what seems to a family owned hotel, the only staff who speak English are the desk clerks. Communicating with the restaurant staff is impossible unless you know some rudimentary Spanish.

There are so many potentially better options in the same vicinity as the Toscana that I would look elsewhere. I would not stay at the Toscana again.

Great Value For Money Good Location Helpful Staff

I am really glad that we choose Toscana Inn as it shows that you don't always have to spend a lot of money in order to get a really nice hotel!
A LOT of restaurant choices within close walking distance.
Front staff very helpful (They did seem to understand English but I had a bit of difficulty understanding some of them )
The breakfast buffet was sufficient with slight changes every day. (One morning they had boiled eggs which we didn't want so one of the workers in dining room arranged for us to obtain some scrambled eggs)
I was really Impressed with the size of room - it was quite spacious and it felt like a real vacation type space.
However, we couldn't get a shower without water escaping onto the bathroom floor
The WiFi service was Excellent!
Private car/van drivers for hire were usually waiting outside of the hotel

As mentioned in other reviews, the water in the shower at night was not very hot

*The hotel has a Restaurant Guide pamphlet which shows on a map a lot the restaurants that are located nearby. No one mentioned this pamphlet to us when we arrived at the hotel after 9pm on our first night asking for suggestions of places to eat. It wasn't until our 3rd night when we asked where a particular restaurant was located that they presented us with this pamphlet.

One day we came back from an outing after 3pm and our room had not been cleaned yet. Shortly afterwards a friendly maid came to the clean the room. We used the opportunity to go and eat

Great hotel option in Panama City

This is a great hotel in Panama City. It is in a good safe area of Panama City. We walked all around the area. Lots of good restaurants nearby. We did a lot of sightseeing in Panama and this made for a good base to do that. The breakfast was a good way to start the day. By the way, we used Uber for many trips and it worked great. We would definitely stay here again if we went to Panama City.

Stayed four nights and after the first night, panties were stolen along with a cellphone on the room across the hall. Different cleaning personnel was used on that floor after these incidents. No issues after.

The only good thing about the hotel is the location.
