The hotel is in calle aeropuerto . It was perfect it comes with a garage so your car is safe, and your room is right above the garage. You get your money worth. I wouldn't recommend to disabled people the room is in the 2nd floor. Not too far from the border, it's about a 10-15 minute walk to the motel, I was onced forced to walk to the hotel because I forgot to bring cash, I only had enough money for the hotel room, it was around twenty- thirty dollars a night.
