Disappointed in Tijuana
There were some issues when we checked in. The first question I was asked by the attendant let you know the kind of hotel this was. When I arrived, the "service window" had dark film on it so you would not see the person on the other side. That was weird. I heard a voice from the other side of the window asking me if the stay was only 4 hours or the whole night. At that moment I thought "oh, what did I do?!”. I said I had a reservation via hotels.com but I wanted to check the area first. I walked the area and it seemed ok. I came back and she pulled my reservation info and proceeded with the checking in. I was told the price and I gave her my credit card. She told me that they DO NOT take credit cards, ONLY cash. I was tired and the neighborhood was sketchy, it was late and it was getting dark; so I went ahead a paid with cash. I was given my room number in the third floor! The bottom units were empty, so I asked for a first floor unit. She said she didn't have anything available. I guess the first floor units are for the 4 hour stays. The room I came in first was not done and there were blood stains on the sheets. I went downstairs and spoke with the attendant. She assigned me another room. The AC was working but the front cover of unit was not on the unit. The room was clean and all items worked, it just looked in real bad shape. I guess that's why they don't take credit cards, so you can't dispute the stay. Nope, I won't stay there again.

Muy sucia la habitación y en mal estado. El aire acondicionado estaba asqueroso, sin botones para encenderlo y con capas de mugre pegada, el asiento del escusado roto e impregnado de orines, la cortina de la regadera con moho, muchos mosquitos en el baño que ademas no tiene ventilación , alfombra muy sucia y lo peor, las sábanas manchadas. Terrible experiencia a pesar de que sale bien calificado aquí en expedia.
