Best location around the corner from the "El Rey" Boutique Supermarket...the only one for groceries in the neighborhood and also steps away from restaurants, bars, cafes & plazas @ the beginning of Casco for easy in & out without the inside traffic! The lovely waterfront promenade is around the corner...making this property the perfect base! The space Choosing a property with “Patty’s Casitas” means a well taken care home, responsive and dedicated hosts (who are also the owners) and the possibility of a full rounded experience with offering of airport transfers & tours. This is a very unique loft style property featuring 15 foot (5 meters) high ceilings, skylights, a large mezzanine bedroom with beautiful wooden floors & oversize custom made wardrobe with its bright en-suite bathroom, the Master bedroom overlooks the living-room. The second bedroom is a very cozy private room at the entrance of the condo and separated from the living-room with a beautiful custom made iron Queen size bed with bamboo floors & also its on-suite full bathroom (cheater on-suite) The nice modern American kitchen offers a breakfast bar and opens onto the living/dining room that leads to a lovely balcony with views to a wide quiet street with colorful 'bougainvillea'. It is a gorgeous apartment which benefits from all the colonial charm: iron work & Calicanto walls (original stone wall from the 17th Century) all around the condo with a great homey feeling. The condo is fitted with high end amenities. NEIGHBORHOOD: Casco Viejo (also known as Casco Antiguo) is an effervescent neighborhood with its beautiful restored colonial buildings, home to the President Palace, the French Embassy & a gorgeous promenade with awesome views to the city's skyline & the Amador Causeway (entrance of the Panama Canal). It also offers fine dining & entertainment with the National Theatre, great outdoor cafés for a nice drink on one of the charming plazas...an enjoyment by itself! Its perfect location between down-town & Amador, a 5 to 10 Min’s taxi ride, makes it a conveniently central "pied-à-terre"! Please note that it is not recommended for people with knee/hip problems as there is no elevator. LOCATION: It is next to the famous “La Merced” Church which facade was transported stone by stone after the 1st city (Panama La Vieja) was destroyed…the building was actually the living quarters of the preasts;-) The condo is steps away from restaurants, bars & cafés, the famous Plaza Cathedral with the Museum of the canal & the up-coming Plaza Herrera which will soon host another boutique Hotel. For your convenience we also offer airport transfers & experiences as we own a tour company rated on TripAdvisor and can welcome you in 5 languages: Spanish, English, French, Italian and German.
