I stayed at Limbo for five nights. It is not a luxurious type of hotel, but as I am a travel agent I had to check almost every hotel in town and must say Limbo is, from the hotels we visited, a usual hotel in Bocas, not the best (Neither the most expensive) not the worst (Far from it!!) From... more

Upon arrival we were already aware of some of the issues that we might face so we were ready to take on whatever we might encounter. As soon as we hit the door we were confronted by a guy named Carlos(looks like Mike Tyson). He informed us that he could hook us up with a boat ride to tour all... more

Very rundown Hotel.Shabby room that was very possible the worst room we have ever seen.The food was as bad as we have ever experianced.Traveling many we have seen many poor places,and this ranks with the worst.....The wait staff was so slow that long periods of times were needed to get food.If not hungry at order you will be by time... more

My husband and I just came back from Panama where we spent a couple days in Bocas del Toro. Unfortunately, we stayed in Hotel El Limbo. I recommend anyone to stay far away from this place. As the other reviews have already stated, the rooms are overpriced, dirty and service is terrible to non-existent. more

I am an avid world traveler and I have to say: Never have I been treated in such a rude, unprofessional manner as in this hotel. The service is non existent. Example: Nobody is there to help you carry your luggage upstairs to the 3rd floor. I was shown one room before checking in and after I agreed to take... more

Just got back from 3 days at the Limbo by the Sea with my wife and 3 year old daughter. From the moment we walked in the door the smell of the place was one of no air circulating and who knows when they last time they cleaned the place. We had the "best" room in the hotel (top floor... more

We had stayed at the Limbo on previous trip and although, the service at the restaurant was bad, since we like dining by the ocean, we returned for dinner on July 24th. We were a party of 6, my brother and I and 4 guess we have invited to dinner to discuss businesses. The waitress finally took our order, after... more

Recently stayed at the El Limbo Hotel on Isla Colon and I'm still trying decide whether I'd ever go back there. While we liked the physical aspects of the hotel - comfortable room, nice ambiance on the water - the service was AWFUL. From check-in to check-out, the front desk reception workers (two different women) provided begrudging, aloof service and... more

If you can overlook the brown water coming out of the sink and tub/shower, this is a very nice place to stay in town. We had the 2 top rooms over looking the water (kids in one, my wife and I in the other) and the balconies were excellent for sunrise/sunset watching. Yes, one of the days the water came... more
