Our experience was Excellent! The Room was clean and had everything we needed: fridge, microwave, TV, and an iron with board. The room also had a safe, coffee machine, with a nice view. Breakfast was an added plus, offering biscuits, eggs, potatoes, and protein. Plus fruit, cereal, yogurt, oatmeal, coffee and juices. We definitely used the laundry room during our 5 day stay which was a great amenity before heading back home. Hotel is located next to various restaurants, a grocery store, gas stations, and miscellaneous stores. The Trolley station is two blocks west, which is convenient if you want to travel to Tijuana or Mexico. Definitely worth coming back.
