few deficiencies
The location of the hotel was great. The staff especially Mateas were super helpful, courteous. The internet though advertised to be in room , was hardly capturable , except in lobby. The greatest deficiency was housekeeping. One day they did not even clean the room. Everyday we had to ask for new towels. They would take the dirty ones , but not leave clean ones, you then had to call front desk in order to get fresh towels.The only other thing which was minor in that they controlled the a/c, most of the time only the fan worked, was told ambient temp had to be a certain temp before a/c would kick in (after complaining a few times however it miraculously stayed cold.

Right in the center of the capital...
Right off we chaged room because of lousy wifi signal. Given a triple room on the first floor..not too bad at first. Then as the two weeks past it just got worse.. The buffet was actually more a CONTINENTAL BUFFET. There were no eggs and only had rolled slices of ham and sweets and bread. Not for gluten free diets! Buffet did not look like the online photo. Small space and cold and drafty. A fruit salad in a bowl was drowned in orange juice. I learned too late to ask for a whole apple... After the first two days it was cold in room #104, window didn't close properly and cold air was coming in. It was four (4) degrees and the heating didn't work. Service guy said they needed two day to open the wall to fix what was burned. The last few days when system got turned on it made a very loud noise, so it got turned off. Internet was impossibly maddening! I brought my iPad along so I could message home, avoiding long distance calls. Consecutive days without Internet...even in the lobby it was spotty at best. Being planet contious we put towels out of the shower back on the rack. Too late we discovered that when they were put on the floor and hanging from the tub, the maid actually put them back on the rack, sometimes just tossing them there. For two days unknowingly we used the towels that had been put on the floor (my husband had aclually wiped the floor with them after showering) these were used on our faces! Two days no towels. Saturday one elevator worked. Charged for local calls
The kitchen...

Central location reasonably priced
We stayed at the America Plaza Hotel for a week and found it a reasonably central location with good dining options nearby and access to the subway. The hotel was adequate for our purposes and the staff were mostly helpful, particularly the chief receptionist who assisted us via email prior to our stay. Our very limited Spanish didn't help as some staff also had very limited English. This hotel appears to cater more for the Latin American market but suited us fine.
