Recent Reviews in Panama City

Red Roof Inn Panama City

8/10 Good

"The gentleman was very professional and nice at the front desk. The place was very clean. The location is good. The breakfast needs more protein like hard boiled eggs and preotein bars in the pastry cabinet. If there is a way to get the proetin bars without the wrappers and put in pastry cabinet, then people won't take for later. Coconut yogurt or any non dairy yogurt would be a nice option for those of us who get sick from the regulat yogurt! Overall very nice."

Holiday Inn Express Hotel & Suites Panama City-Tyndall by IHG

8/10 Good

"The front desk staff was very nice and helpful especially it being after 10pm when we got there. He was very prompt in getting us into our room as fast as possible. As far as clean, the dining room area, hallways, and elevator was very nice. The room was ok. The bathroom needs exhaust fans to help with the mildew which was everywhere on the ceiling. The main two beds were clean. We had an extra room off in the corner that had a pull out couch and there were fake eye lashes and a rag inside of it so we stripped everything and threw it in a corner and asked for extra which were given to us no problem. Overall, it was a good night sleep."

When I asked her why I had to wait 15 minutes, she said she had been checking rooms,no apology offered!! Another couple came in right after me and they also had to wait 15 minutes this is not acceptable .when I went to the men's room ,close to the main desk, it had no toilet paper and no paper towels, not acceptable. the room itself was nice ,it was clean, it was quiet and the bed was comfortable the continental breakfast was very good and the employees were nice and friendly"
