Good price

Another good stay at Hotel Catalina. Like always very clean and excellent service. Second time staying in room 15. I forgot why I wasn’t to please last visit. This room has a very tight bathroom. Unable to sit on toilet and close the door normally. Outside noise was much better this time.

I’ve stayed at this hotel more than 8 times. I had a minor issue where I had to cross back to the US, leave my stuff behind in the hotel. I had a reservation booked and asked if I can pay it when I come back to Tijuana (5pm, which I’ve done before and they let me) they told me no just take your stuff come back and check in! One receptionist in particular always gives me a hard time, the others are nice , kind and treat me with excellent service during my stay.
