"Coral Suites is a convenient no-frills hotel located in the heart of Cangrejo, Panama City. The staff, for the most part, was wonderful, and I found the checkout time of 1 pm to be quite generous where many hotels and aparthotels stipulate a ridiculous 10 am checkout. My room was very clean, with piping hot water and a nice functional kitchen space complete with amenities. I would recommend Coral Suites without reservation."

"Overall, this was a nice place to stay before our cruise. It was clean, they have a nice rooftop pool and there's a lot to do/see in the area around the hotel. The service staff was SO slow. Meals were delivered to our table over and hour after ordering. Drinks took about the same amount of time. Very poor service and quite a bit of attitude from staff. But the rooms were good, nothing fancy but comfortable. "
