The property was clean, the staff was friendly. The rooms were a little stuffy but was fixed with the AC. The location of the property is pretty hidden by factories… they have a few plazas by the border but most stores were closed. They had a mc Donald’s that was open. The hotel did have a little store were you could buy snacks and drinks.
