Top hotels in La Granja
Suites Metropoli
They could not accommodate my health issue as i reserved the room and showed up later in the evening, but the manager and owner himself went out of their way to make sure i was safe.. the owner even went to another hotel to get me a room where I'd be healthy and happy. I cannot thank them enough ...

The breakfast is absolutely awesome. The staff is professional, courteous and at the same time sort of down-home friendly. Everything is top-notch.
