Clean rooms, comfortable beds , but rooms and restrooms are too small and rooms amenities are too limited. Hotel has a great pool with a nice view. Didn’t like the breakfast that comes with the room they need to have a better service in the breakfast area.

Stayed at City Express Plus by Marriott Ensenada in Baja California. The hotel itself was nice, clean, and comfortable. The staff were very cheerful, helpful, and welcoming throughout the stay which made the experience better. The only downside was the “free breakfast” since some items were not actually included. Aside from that, it was still a pleasant stay overal

I like the property is beautiful and clean. We could NOT use the POOL because they were fixing it and the 3 days I was there, the pool was not ready. My biggest complaint is that the hotel has a water drainage straight to the OCEAN. Is so sad how Rich/ Business owners are able to CONTAMINATE the ocean and they don't even hide it. Is so sad. I think they can use that water to water plants instead.

Parking attended seated if we left at night, we were not guaranteed a parking space in the designated area. Check-in closes at 10 PM. Make sure to arrive before then. There’s lots of loose and moldy wood pieces by the pool area however, nice ocean view temperature a pool delightful restaurant bar area by the pool is closed on Sundays. The free breakfast was gland for being in Mexico.

Still under construction we were woken up by the noise heavy machinery. Staff greeting was friendly, but staff at kitchen area she had a very bad attitude when trying to tell guest about what meals where included and what was not. When we got to kitchen there was no one there we approached the waiter gave our ticket did not seem to know what it was for. Not recommended!!!
