I was overcharged over what the site quoted me. There is no parking in the hotel altough they claim there is. You have to walk one block to another building to another hotel to leave your car. The staff was very polite but inefficient. Now… the cleanliness of the hotel was concerning. If i had been with someone i would have walked out. But i stayed. The pillows were not clean with lots of women hair still stuck on the pillows and some on the sheets. Again they ended up charging me the same as surrounding hotels that are much much better.

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 have been staying here 3-4 times a month for a year. The hotel and rooms are clean. The rooms upstairs are big and roomy. The TV is new and has all streaming services. The satff is always nice and helpful. Hotel Catalina is my favorite affordable hotel in downtown TJ.

No hay elevador, así que es incómodo para algunas personas. El estacionamiento se encuentra a media cuadra del hotel. Por lo demás es conveniente si solo llegas a descansar

Cable Tv. te lo condicionan a un canal nada mas.

Todo esta pasable, la gente de recepcion es muy atenta y cortes, En realidad por el precio que pagué no puedo ser muy exigente pero, una de las cosas que me molestaron fue el hecho de que te dicen qu tienen cable tv. y solo un canal de television me dieron, llame a recepcion y vino el tecnico y dijo que no podia hacer nada al respecto y tuve que tragar mi coraje y, ver telenovelas turcas en español por que eso era lo unico que podiia ver en tv.😮‍💨
