Everything is great. Only feedback I would say is the bracelet they give you at check-in to enter the premises. Bracelet is uncomfortable to sleep, for people who cannot sleep with jewelry or objects such as rings, necklace, watches, etc.. I had to go back to the receptions to cut it, couldnt sleep and was bothering my wrist. Everything else is great. Staff are very friendly. Will come back for my next trip to Ensenada

Property is a bit deceiving. The outside looks a bit run down like you don't want to leave your car and the inside of the property looks a bit dated. However, the 24 hr parking security is on top of things, we left our motorcycles out there. The hallway to the rooms look dated, but the rooms are very nice and well kept and clean. Staff is very pleasant, and friendly. I Recommend.

Very clean and nice hotel with friendly staff providing you with dining and sightseeing options just upon check-in. We stay in apparently renovated room with pool view and it was excellent, with only a small note: they should add small fridge in it. Restaurant on premises is great and very reasonably priced! Food was very good!!! Will surely stay here again!

The rooms we got were small but clean, the view of the pool was nice. The water pressure in the shower was amazing. Showers have shampoo, conditioner and body wash. There’s a mini coffee maker in the room which is nice. No mini fridge but they do have an ice machine. Great staff, easy to walk around. Parking was easy, they have a parking lot across the street with security. The casino is a bonus. There’s an OXXO half a block up the street with good coffee. We truly enjoyed our stay here. This will be our first option next time we’re going to Ensenada again.
