Villa Panorama

First impression of the Panorama was a bit of a shock. The front looks a bit like a shop. The staff on duty had litle English but did their best. The layout of the hotel is a little strange but when we saw our room it was a pleasant surprise. Large with 1 double and 2 single beds a full lounge suite fridge and flat screen TV with satellite. Separate shower room and toilet and a hallway. The food was great and it and the wine was reasonably priced. Later the English speaking manager and receptionist were on duty and most helpful. The hotel appears to be in the middle of nowhere but a short walk along the street is fairly busy with some shops money exchanges and fast food outlets.There are plenty of buses into town although it is about 40 minutes away. Bus tickets are 50cents each. There is also free use of a computer in the bar area. One downside was there was a wedding on one evening and we felt slightly unwelcome then almost being escorted to our room out of the way. It was quiet most times and we were often the only ones in the restaurant. It seems most residents are perhaps visiting relatives and only sleep in the hotel. This is good place if like us you sightsee all day and like to relax quietly with a drink and a meal in the evening.
