I arrived in Panama City at 8 am. Since check-in was until 3 pm, I stayed at the airport for long hours. I arrived at the hotel at 1:23 pm and they didn't let me check in because the check-in time was at 3 pm, even when the room was available. I needed an early check-in and early checkout because I was leaving for the airport at 4 am. The hotel was not very helpful.
