“This hotel, positioned in Zona Centro, gives you immediate access to Ensenada's core. I appreciate that it attempts to blend Mediterranean aesthetics with Mexican city tributes in its room design. Add to that an award-winning restaurant and live Cuban music, and you've got a stay that could lean into the city's pulse, though some may find the energy a bit much at times.”
