Holiday Inn Tijuana Zona Rio by IHG
Room was clean and area felt safe. Ice maker on 2nd floor did not work. Tissue box was empty. Went downstairs to ask for a box. They were going to send someone to bring new box, but no one ever came.

Quartz Hotel & SPA
The food was really good. The staff is super friendly and accommodating. The gym has decent equipment, but 3 out the 4 treadmills were down the whole time I was there. I really like the place. I plan on booking another stay there again for my next visit.
