Kent L Panama City, Panama
Great service, rooms, food, location, and birds
I just stayed at U-Tiny Boutique Home for 2 nights. I found the service and food (including the complimentary breakfast buffet) to be excellent. Wang (the manager) and the staff were very attentive to my needs. The room was new, clean, and modern. Located only a few minutes from the airport, you'd think it would be noisy, but it's situated down a side street hundreds of meters from the busy roads and so is quiet. I'm a bird-watching guide in Panama and a life-long birder, and I'd assumed there would be some good birds in the garden. There were. But what was unexpected was there are many great birds in the adjacent neighborhood and marsh. I saw more than two dozen species including Pink-necked Green Pigeon, Lesser Coucal, Plaintive Cuckoo, Common Tailorbird, Oriental Magpie-Robin, Pied Fantail, Red-whiskered Bulbul, Yellow-vented Bulbul, Streak-eared Bulbul, Asian Koel, Ashy Woodswallow, Chinese Pond Heron, Yellow Bittern, Scaly-breasted Munia, White-rumped Minia, Common Iora, plus the usual common herons, mynas, doves, and sparrows. If I ever go to Bangkok again, I'd definitely stay at U-Tiny.
