Visited Panama for 7 days. Great experience. Scene is improved. Pricing excellent value.
Spent $87/day. Best part: ease of arranging.
Overall: 7.5/10. Solid destination.

I'd also recommend downloading Google Translate before you go. Essential.

Not sure I agree about that area. I found downtown to be better value.

Spot on with the prices. That matches what I paid in February.

Interesting take but I think you overpaid. Try using a different site next time.

Adding my experience from last month.
The scene has stayed the same since pre-COVID. Biggest change: better quality overall.
