My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The location was fantastic, right in the heart of the touristic area of Ensenada with everything within walking distance. The rooms, however, were quite outdated and in need of upgrades, particularly the plumbing. The dining experience was a bit inconvenient with having to collect vouchers every morning for breakfast, although the food itself was quite exquisite.

The rooms, although outdated, were still comfortable for the most part. However, the plumbing definitely needs some improvement as I could hear water leaking from the shower, which was a bit bothersome.
Service
9.0
The service at the hotel was commendable. Despite a minor incident where my cell phone was taken, the staff addressed it promptly and even offered to change my room. The location of the hotel was convenient in the touristic section of Ensenada, making it easy to get around without the need for taxis.

The location was a major highlight of my stay. Being just one block from the harbor front and close to everything I needed within walking distance made exploring the downtown and tourist area of Ensenada a breeze.
Dining
8.0
The dining experience, although slightly inconvenient with collecting breakfast vouchers daily, offered exquisite dishes. It would have been more convenient to receive vouchers for the duration of my stay at once.
Facilities
The facilities at the hotel were satisfactory overall, with a nearby traditional restaurant adding to the diverse dining options. However, improvements could be made to enhance the overall experience.

My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. While the rooms were on the small side and lacking certain amenities like a desk, dresser, or mini-fridge, they were close to the bar, which may or may not suit everyone's preference. The booking confusion over the room configuration was a bit frustrating, as we expected two rooms with queen beds each based on the information provided by customer service.

Location

The hotel's location was a mixed bag. While it was close to family and included in the price, the surrounding area seemed a bit abandoned despite its potential. On the bright side, it was near bars and restaurants, making dining options easily accessible.
Dining
7.0
We opted to dine at the El Rey Sol restaurant across the street, which offered a delightful nostalgic experience reminiscent of the 1940s. The dining experience was enjoyable, although we did find a coupon for another restaurant to be somewhat overpriced.

The facilities at the hotel were decent, but there is room for improvement, especially in updating the pillows and towels provided.

I had a delightful stay at this hotel! The rooms were clean, full of character, and had a double-sized, floor-to-ceiling window offering lovely views. The nearby traditional restaurant with various dining areas added to the charm. However, it seemed a bit abandoned in some areas, which was a shame given its potential. The central location was a huge plus, making it easy to access all the top attractions in Ensenada without the need for additional transportation.
