Hotel Olas

Nightmare in hell! The hotel staff on the overnight shift provided a thug with our hotel room number. After a couple days of seeing a man stalking me, he approached me in the dark on the street, pulled a gun and demanded money - he told me he knows I’m staying in room #18 at Hotel Olas - there really was no option but to pull oug my sallet and give the $200 I had on me. It didn’t end there. 2 nights later, a knock on my door at midnight prompted me to open it. Thank goodness for the chain - the thug came to the room # provided by the girl hotel attendant he assured me would protect him if I called the police. Fortunately this time was only $40 lost. I’m not exaggerating this event at all. The entire island portion of my Panama trip was a nightmare filled with fair. Never did I expect this.

The area was dangerous, clearly away from the safety of the inner town.
