Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The property is super pretty! It's a bit older in its appearance and amenities but it kinda gives modern Victorian and I was for it! The heaters are not as strong as I would have loved for the weather and the locks aren't necessarily the most strong feeling on the room doors but I loved it regardless and will be going back! BE ADVISED THAT NOT ALL ROOMS HAVE ATTACHED BATHROOMS. BE SURE TO LOOK AT THE PICTURES AND CALL THE PROPERTY IF NEEDED!

Hotel in a residential area - needs a lot of work
This hotel is nothing like the photos on the internet. It appears to be under construction / being remodeled, but I wasn't told that when I booked. There were paint cans and construction supplies piled in the courtyard. It seemed abandoned. The owner left the room key in a lock box. There was no air conditioning, and the fan in the room was too noisy to tolerate. The bathrooms are down the hall. I rated the service as excellent because I left the hotel within an hour after arriving, and the owner did not charge me for the stay.

The lobby and restaurant were under construction. We stayed in the Venetian Room. It was smaller, darker and dated than it looked on their website photos. Needs some maintenance work or updating - chip paint, holes on the walls, some splashes of "something" on the walls, picture frames falling apart, our towels had holes, etc. Otherwise, good price, great location and walkable to downtown San Rafael.

Cute place, but very basic.
Panama is a cute hotel and Anos, who checked us in was friendly. Our room was cute. The neighborhood is very quaint and it is walking distance to downtown. (.5 miles) However, during our visit, it was VERY basic. The hotel is under construction-- (big time!) and I was not informed of this on their website when I booked our stay. There was no coffee in the morning, no lobby, no place it sit downstairs. I would stay again in the future after the remodeling and construction.

Under construction. No one was there when I showed up, but I was two hours early for my reservation. There was no clear signage about where to enter, just a big sign that they changed owners. I honestly thought the place was closed but the nice lady next store told me they must be at lunch. My room (captains room) was near where workers were most of the night. I asked for an extra hour passed check out and they said no.

I will say that the bed was comfortable and the price was right. Once they finish with the restaurant construction the place will have a nice travelers lodge feel. The bathrooms are shared, so know that going in. Easy walk to downtown San Rafael and it was quiet at the property.

It’s criminal to charge what they charge for the room and property. The sofa bed was worn out, leather frayed, surface lumpy. Definitely not quality futon as we thought it would be. The carpet is disgusting. The faucets of the sink and bathtub both leaked continuously. There is no shower head!!! Seriously this was subpar hotel experience and I will never stay again nor will I recommend it to anyone. We should have stayed at the neighboring AC hotel which is new and much nicer. Very disappointed and mad at wasting so much money on this stay. Also, there was no mention of the property grounds being under construction. It was a mess and very unsafe and unpleasant. The only good thing to report was the nice employee named Enos.
