Upon check-in, I had paid for a spacious room with a bar. To my surprise, the front desk informed me that all available rooms had been booked. They offered me the most undesirable option, a room devoid of windows, devoid of a view, and confined to four walls, and it was remarkably small with full of Roaches. I paid for a comfortable room, not for a subpar one. Furthermore, the front staff asked to upgrade my room for a larger one and that to pay the difference. The service provided was horrible, and I was thoroughly dissatisfied with this hotel. Disgusting

It’s a hotel with potential because of its charm and location, but it lacks maintenance. We were given a broken bed, the closet doors were in poor condition, and there was very low hot water pressure. The place is clean, but it needs to offer more comfort, including larger beds (it was advertised to us as a queen bed, but I don’t believe it was actually that size).

The hotel was very clean, the staff was courteous and helpful. The hotel itself is beautiful and rich with building aesthetics of period México. My only drawback would be if traveling with elderly or handicap they are limited in rooms that are leveled per staff. They do have an elevator but the top floor has a to get to some rooms outside of the elevator. Some of the rooms have a step down in the room. The breakfast is simply coffee and fruit bar and fruit. Other than that beautiful and clean. Would definitely come back!!

Sometimes have a little consideration for elderly people, and not to focus on money, which I thought was the most important thing for them. I will come back to the hotel with my mom. I would not recommend this for elderly people that have issues with long distance walk

I was very disappointed with the accommodations for my mom because I request a room with no steps and I realize it is not for handicap friendly also, I request to switch ones that is less noise. The answer was I need to pay an extra charge for different rooms to accommodate my mom This abilities.

They charged a $50 deposit, which was actually $58, I checked in on a Saturday and they said the deposit would be returned when I checked out on Sunday. As of Monday night the deposit has not been returned. I have stayed at many hotels in Ensenada, that I have booked and paid in full through Expedia, a deposit has never been requested. I will not be staying at El Cid again due to this issue

This is a nice location it’s convenient. It’s in the middle of all the party scene bars and clubs near bye so it is not particularly quiet, but it is very comfortable and there is lots of shopping and restaurants option's. Parking is easy since it’s gated and secure.

I do not recommend. The room was old and you could easily hear the noise from the street such as outdoor conversations and cars, despite the patio being closed. The hotel room smelled. The bed, despite being advertised as a queen, was not one. The bed felt like you were sleeping on a rough cardboard box - too firm. The walls of the closet in the room was connected to the bathroom so if you wanted to you can share what you're doing with the world. That is honestly just a haphazard renovation at best. The shower tile was grimey. The service was fine but not fantastic. I can see why there were not really any other guests on our floor. We checked out an hour after seeing our room.

Manager was rude, did not allow visitors. Only allowed at lounge cause I only paid for single. Wouldn’t allow to change (pay) occupancy to double. Dog’s two doors down howling. Lost water for 45 minutes. Tv was a joke.

The shower curtain was too short and water spilled on the floor, slippery and dangerous. Also, seems like there was a bad scent coming from the drain.

Good value. Clean and quiet.

The room was very clean. Everyone at the front desk was super helpful and very friendly. English and Spanish were both very well spoken. The room was quiet. I think this is probably one of the quieter hotels in the historic district. The water pressure in the shower was low, but maybe that’s how it is in this city. I don’t know the city regulations regarding water conservation. The bed was harder than I would have liked, but I got used to it. Probably if I had asked for it, they could have put a topper or foam on the bed, but I didn’t ask. I would be happy to stay here again.

Nice rustic hotel

The hotel is old and rustic but we'll kept. The room we were in was large and the bathroom was a good size as well. Private parking and security was good. The area is touristy with lots of good restaurants. Just a few blocks from the ocean. Check is is at 3 pm and check out is 2 noon not 11 am.
