Decided to stay at the Panama Hotel while visiting Seattle for a wedding. The Panama Hotel was at a much better price point than some of the other hotels in the area. While I had failed to notice the “dormitory” style (with shared bathrooms + showers) of the hotel while booking, the rooms/toilets/common areas/etc were clean, comfortable, and well-kept. Overall, I was happy with my stay at the Panama Hotel.
The cafe attached to the hotel was also great — the tea latte and pastries I got there were excellent.
