If you are looking for a no fuss check-in and check out during your stay, this place is superb. Check in is via a kiosk, with an online Rep via video. The entire process was about 5 minutes. Room was stocked with coffee, snacks and water. Bed, super comfie. My only complaint, was the lack of counter space near the bathroom sink.

The property had ample parking and the check in and check out process was super smooth. The staff was super friendly and helpful as well. My only issue was that the floor was a little dusty but the property had soft water which made up for that previous issue.

Catrina is a motel, but has been fairly recently renovated to a good level. The bed was comfortable and the TV was a good size. The staff were very good and every two days the room was cleaned and the water, coffee and snacks replenished. We were on the upper of the two floors and didn’t hear a significant amount of noise from adjoining rooms.
