this is what i came up with. please add or minus things as necessary. once someone corrects/approves this, i'll start writing in spanish:

1. Our city offers many luxury hotesls and also inexpensive lodgings.
2. With the luxury hotels, you can make reservations for double bedrooms. Also, the luxury hotels include security systems, a big screen T.V., and solar heating for the winter. The inexpensive lodgings do not cost as much as the luxury hotels, and include an individual bedroom.
3. Tourists can use many services offered by our city which include a tourist office, currency exchange, a telephone office, and a merket where they can by handcrafts.
4. tourists can enjoy exploring the woods and the river.
5. I reccomend that to enjoy the city, tourists should explore and visit many places.
