The place was in a great place where there is a lot to do. I wish they specified what apartment room we were getting, the pictures that they advertise on Expedia generalizes the apartments they have but not the specific one you will get. Not a big deal but we were expecting the tv to be in the living room and not in the bedroom. We were staying at this place for medical appointments not to vacation but overall it met our needs. The parking was amazing, and the staff were amazing. We ended up extending our stay two nights for medical reasons and the hosts were very helpful, accommodating and making the check out process easy. I would say the drainage smell wasn’t pleasant but it didn’t make it or break it for our stay. Overall our experience was pleasant and it was home for about 10 days. We would stay here again but in a different apartment that has a balcony, we felt very enclosed at times and needed to go walk a lot to catch some air. The place is great and it meets the basic needs but we still went out to get a lot of the supplies we needed for our long stay.

I will never stay here again. I had to keep the restroom door closed 24/7 due to the smell of sewage. My fiancée preferred not to shower the couple of days and used the public restrooms when out instead of the one in the room. We had to keep the windows open around the clock to keep it aired out. The host did send someone to pour liquid down the sewage but that was short lived. About an hour later the smell returned. Additionally, my parking space was one level lower and my elevator card wouldn't work to go down a level so I had to take the stairs everytime I was on my way out.

Great location downtown Tijuana and great atmosphere. The place was great for only one or two people. Enough dishes only for two, so no entertaining. It would have been good to entertain dinner sometimes if I were there for three weeks. The bathroom, though, smells of sewage most mornings. Also, the dongle stopped working once, and that puts me at risk. Not sure I would stay unless these things were fixed. But overall nice place.

Awesome space, great location for food, coffee, breweries.

Check in and check out could be streamlined a little easier.

The area can be noisy due to all the clubs in the area. Closed windows helps a lot. Host provides earplugs as well.

Overall happy with my stay and would recommend.

Honestly, the staff were totally unhelpful. I am disabled and cannot carry my bags around for obvious reasons- the front desk refused to store them nor did they claim they had a storage room despite my stating I would extend my stay if my bags (with expensive medical devices) could be stored in another room- which I would literally use for a few hours. The apartment is awesome but the staff and ability/willingnesss for them to be helpful, especially someone with a disability, makes it unlikely I’ll return

It was a nice place. The directions and picture to get in is not correct and unmanned. Entry is actually on other side of building next to Boba shop. Internet didn't work, but TV still got internet. Door lock is confusing and ran out of battery. It was exceptionally clean. Very comfortable. What we did like is that once you leave the building, all that is around there is restaurants, bars, pharmacies, and tchokies sales. But don't miss out on Caesars restaurant and their caesar salad! We would stay here again.

Balcony view is amazing. Cleanliness and security is top notch. Only issue I had were the elevators. You are only allowed to use certain elevators so the key card did not work but security saw us having a hard time and informed us which elevators we were supposed to use.

I have stayed here several times and always had a good experience. You are in a great spot on Revolucion Avenue and walking distance to a lot of good restaurants, coffee shops, cigar lounges, bars and breweries. Blanca does a very good job of communicating and handling any problems that may arise. Very secure and well equipped! This has been a great place for me to book and will continue staying here for my Tijuana trips!

This was my second stay at this property. The first day was simply overnight, this time around it was a four day stay. I think that the property needs to have some modification for stays more than a day or two. Example the property has an espresso machine, only one pod for a four day stay? There are no cleaning products, such as paper towels, or a general purpose cleaner to wipe down counters and other items as they were used. The facility has a washer and dryer, but no products to utilize them finally after four days I became acutely aware at the quality, (or lack there of ) of the mattress. I think in order for me to have an extended stay at this location. I would need these things as well as washcloths and extra towels, or at least some way of washing and drying the towels provided. These are not complaints. Just merely suggestions as I found the property to be exceptional and the owners representative helpful and courteous. I highly recommend booking this facility bearing these things in mind.

It is clean and in a nice area. Shower is either very cold or super hot, can't take proper shower. Our unit was missing hair dryer and I notify them right away but they never brought one to me. Bathroom vanity smells like sewer. Doesn't seem like it has P-trap and due to that unit smells very bad specially when the door is open ir fan is on.

Extremely loud traffic and music from 11a to 4a...

This area of Tijuana is like staying on the strip in Vegas - like on the actual street. The unit is directly above (one floor above street level) a very busy street that does not slow down until about 4a and then starts back up at about 11a when businesses open. Every business plays music out on the sidewalks, very loud motorcycles and cars with their music playing very loud is experienced in the apartment as if you were standing on the street. I had to leave and find another place to stay.

When I tried to process a refund for the end of my long trip, I gave a full day's notice that I would be leaving and the property manager said they could not help and kept sending me back to Hotels.com. Hotels.com said they reached out to the property and they denied a refund. I was disappointed at their unwillingness to help when I had 5 nights left on my reservation and their original cancellation policy was 24hrs notice. :( The bathroom also smells really bad - like sewage - and the shower is just as described in other reviews - even though the property manager told me it was fixed before I booked.

This might be a good option if you are just going to party and will be wasted when you come back to sleep. Despite the amenities, it is not conducive to managing or recovering from medical treatment.

This is in a very secure beautiful high rise condo/apartment building. Secure parking and nice amenities. Also very modern industrial decor. My wife and I come down to TJ every couple of months for weekend getaways. We’ve stayed at most of the hotels in centro (Revolucion) and after finding this building, I may just continue coming here. It’s centrally located to clubs, shopping, and restaurants. The host was very easy to work with and made a special accommodation for us. My only complaint is the apartments this host has only has one TV per apartment. We prefer to have one in the living room and bedroom. We had to move them back and forth. The same hist or at least company has multiple apartments in multiple buildings, and all hunky have one TV. I recommend this host, building, and apartment!!

2nd time staying here. Beautiful full apartment. Just like in the pictures. Only negatives, all typical of downtown TJ:
1. Noise from clubs - used ear plugs to sleep.
2. Strong sewer smell from bathroom - kept bathroom door closed and fan running.
3. Both times on 1st floor - didn’t get view shown in pictures.

Horrible experience

Maybe its not their fault but it was a bigtime Inconvenience for me so I need to report it honestly. I booked a room over a week prior to showing up and when I did there was a self check in, nobody in the building was of any help, I drove 3 hours to get to this location for an event nearby. Opened the door to the loft and someones belongings were in there. I did not receive any notice until after trying to check in that there was an incident with the rental, I was able to get a hold of the person in charge for the booking 30 minutes to an hour after trying to check in and she told me that there was a plumbing issue with the unit but clearly I saw that somebody was staying there! i'm not sure what the real reason is behind me not being able to get that room but she tried to offer me a room that was way out of the way and it was definitely a downgrade. I requested a refund which she was nonresponsive and not available for three days after my request. I had to go to another hotel and book and I also had to wait for a refund. It was an inconvenience to me and I lost about three hours trying to relocate and contact her for a resolution. It was a very bad experience for me and it affected my weekend in a bad way. maybe this was a one time occurrence but that was my experience and it wasn't good.

Property and security staff are amazing. My only problem was parking. For some reason we (security staff) could not find the parking spot for the room I was staying in but they were nice to allow me to park in another spot. Other than that, great place and amenities.

Probably the nicest place I’ve stayed at in downtown TJ. Close to everything. Very comfortable, spacious and clean. Just like in the only minor negative is that I had a hard time finding the front entrance. It’s on seventh Street not on Revo and it’s the last door of the building down that street. Not obvious, but probably for security reasons
