Never been to Latin America before.

It seems kinda pointless to get a hotel room given that itinerary since I'd have to be at the airport by 3-4 AM, right? I figure as long as transportation is readily available between town and the airport before midnight or 1 am I should be fine. And I can use the $$ I would have spent on a hotel room for taxis and dinner. Is that a reasonable plan?
Having nowhere to freshen up in PTY will be abysmal with the heat.. The hotels are cheap enough, you can get some incredible deals via BRG's.
