Top hotels in La América
Hotel Living 35 Suites by Growing Group
My only query about this property would be its stated smoking policy of designated smoking areas. Off property was the realty…no way to dispose of smoking materials, no security, no seating, dark and unsafe. If a property is non-smoking that should be made clear in their amenities section

Heiss Hotel By Jalo
The breakfast was a little limited but fresh. We requested facecloths the second morning and was told there was no face cloths. However, we had 2 facecloths placed in room on the last night of our stay. The property is very clean staff is very friendly. Its a beautiful hotel. I enjoyed my stay!
