Traveled to Tijuana for a family event, so I knew I was going to returned late to hotel, it was nice to find parking space and feel safe in the parking lot and hotel.
Stayed for one night. The hotel is clean and they do have a friendly staff. The room was clean. However they only gave me one bath towel. The bath towel was too small. The free breakfast was quite basic. If you need to use their shuttle service, you need to reserve ahead of time. They only have a small van and it fills up quite quickly.
Very close to the Airport and 5 min drive to a plaza near by. Walkable distance to many restaurants. I would stay here again.
Staff was friendly and the free breakfast in the morning is awesome!

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
I like the property and the customer service. I didn't like the understaffed service, the gentleman had to attend many customers all himself. He was very polite and respectful but being by himself made the check in process longer. I also didn't like the shower drain being partially plugged and I had to shower in a pool like.
