Hotel Piamonte

Península de Azuero


A clean and well-kept place with frilly bedspreads, friendly Piamonte has 44 small-ish rooms; make sure to ask for one with a window. The rooms in the annex across the street are not as nice and thus cheaper. There's a restaurant on the ground floor of the main building.
