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.
I dig the easy access to many points of the city. If you know how to get around you can catch the taxi bus from here to Rosarito and back. You are also one block from the main Revolution street.
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.
Good for the price: nice, simple. clean, basic, friendly, although next time I will ask for a room with windows that do NOT face the back of a major, very loud dance club!
