This place was a ripoff . They charged me a sircharge for a dirty towel that I used to clean up a little mess. They said that they charged me be they had to wash the towel. I asked wouldn’t they have to wash it anyway? They replied no, normally not, but now they have to wash it with bleach and that’s why they charged me. So I payed under protest. Then they wouldn’t let me leave the property unless I signed something . Then they complained that they didn’t like my signature because it wasn’t my real signature. So they threatened to call the police if I didn’t sign properly. The girl at reception was very rude. BE VERY CAREFUL WITH THIS PLACE!! Jacuzzi didn’t work, pool was disgusting, loud music all night , food was horrible and overpriced. I will not be returning.

Dear JesseThank you for taking the time to share with us your experience during your stay, we understand your discomfort and maybe we didn't explain correctly the reason why you were charged.As we are sure you already know, in any hotel in México and especially in the United States, when an item in the room is damaged by the guest, it generates an additional charge. While it is true that at the departure of all our guests, we wash all the linens and perform a general cleaning process, items such as towels once stained we can not use them for another guest, as it would give the impression of not being clean and that is why they should be discharged and that is why we charge that extra charge.As for the signature, it is important that your signature, especially that of an extra charge, corresponds to that of your registration and your ID, because this way, we have the certainty that you were informed of the charge and it was not just done, and it is a regular process at the front desk for all our guests and clients.We also appreciate your understanding of our policies, which we have to offer the best and most transparent service.We hope to have the pleasure to welcome you again in the future, have a great day and thank you for choosing Hotel Castillos del Mar.Sincerely

We didn't get to stay there. The horrible storm that flooded the streets in Tijuana and Rosarito Toll Road kept us from getting to the hotel. We had 2 rooms and didn't use either of them thru no fault of our own. The hotel said I should contact you. We don't want a refund, just want to be able to reschedule a stay there. 909-730-5653

You don't get the rooms in the pictures
The hotel and rooms are very run down. When you are booking they show you pictures of rooms you don't get. It said the room was updated in 2020, NOT TRUE! We got an old room with a leak in the ceiling. When i asked about an updated room, they wanted more $$. We asked to be moved to another room, still not the room in any picture and last update must have been in the 70s. Also, booking says free breakfast, but they fight you for it and ask for proof. It happened to another person when we were there. The restaurant, grounds and private beach are a plus.
