“City Express By Marriott Tijuana Otay strikes me as a practical choice, especially if you're in town for business or need quick access to the airport; I appreciate the free shuttle and on-site business center, useful for those quick trips. While the location is convenient, some have mentioned issues with extra charges, particularly if booking through third-party sites; so, verify all costs upfront. Ultimately, it's a decent, no-frills option for a short stay in Tijuana.”
