Hotel Hacienda (Santiago,
Panama)
|
This place is run by a Mexican
couple. They’ve imported everything from their homeland and the
place has the real feel of a south-of-the-boarder hotel—or so
I’ve been told, having never been to Mexico. The rooms are
nicely furnished with a/c, cable TV, hot water and a pretty
decent restaurant. Rates are about $30/night.
Each of the rooms were equipped with wireless and there´s a cute
courtyard in the center of the grounds. The pool is pretty nice
looking, but I didn´t get a chance to test it properly. I am
pretty much the authority on hotel pools in Panama, and I´d give
this one three stars just for asthetics. (Just to give you an
idea, I once was offered a large lump sum to evaluate several
hotel pools but declined because I ¨was tìred.¨)
I would reccomend this hotel as a stopping or starting point for
an adventure into the Azuero Peninsula. It´s got a nice lobby
area with lots of Mexican-y looking things which made me think,
just for a second, that I wasn`t in Panama anymore.
There are about 25 rooms and all looked pretty decent. They also
all had TVs that looked like soccer balls. Which, for me, was a
perk because I love soccer. I don´t know if I´ve mentioned it,
but I used to be one of the best defenders in America. I played
strong and with heart.
