Posts: 404Alright?
OK, cool, but the poster mentioned that Uber drivers can't find anything and gave Hyatt Place as example. Don't you, the customer, type Hyatt Place in the Uber app, finds it and choose that destination, order the ride. Then Uber driver have the app tell him where to go? Why a need for the driver to ask for directions? Do the girl don't know how to spell Hyatt or don't know how to copy / paste?

LANDMARKS are often used, Farmacia Arocha is a big chain and there is one in every neighborhood, unfortunately, some barrios have two. Supermarket names and banks are often used.
If you google the building name you usually will find a picture and a map.
Always try to get the name of the building. Along with the landmark most taxi drivers and some of the Uber drivers can get you there.
The young students who deliver food for the fast food places who you see parked on their minibikes waiting for deliveries generally know all the building names in the area. Don't be afraid to ask for directions.

Uber is built on the customer entering the right information in the app. If you continue to have problems, then increase the accuracy of the info you send to the girls so that they can input the address or GPS location correctly.

Posts: 243Anyone have any luck elsewhere besides Don Julios?
I have read the forum (not a new member), but with Covid, a ton has changed and closed. Right now I'm planning on heading down for 8 nights, and going to mix some healthy sightseeing in with my work in the morning and girls at night. Outside of DJ and the Casino near the JW at night, does anyone else has any recommended spots for chicas?

There is a 12 year old in South Africa with a stolen cell phone that in 30 seconds can tell you exactly where the Hyatt Place is in Panama City Panama but an Uber driver in the same city hasn't got a clue.

Such a convenience to have someone come pick you up wherever you may be. And I don't have to tell them where I am either. Maybe it's time for you to join me in the 21st century!

Uber is much cheaper than cabs, but on longer rides make sure you get charged the right amount!
I was overcharged many times $10.00 or more, but as soon as I wrote to Uber they credited me, there hoping you don't pay attention!
