Los Algodones Hotels with Breakfast

We went to los algodones for dental work (out first time). We were told by the dentist office that they had special rates here and the fact that we had 4 days of appointments we thought it would be good to stay nearby. We've never been here before. So we packed our things along with some food for the 4 days. They say they have a shuttle from the boarder parking but it's really just an employee using someone's car. The boarder police will inspect every bag/suitcase you have. It took a few minutes to get through all our stuff! Everyone else just had a small purse or waist pouch. The guard just waved them all past us. It was awkward to heft all this stuff down the streets trying to find our ride. We got to the hotel and the staff was very nice. BEWARE-a standard room doesn't have a fridge or a microwave. Luckily we could upgrade for about $15 more and get a deluxe room. Come to find out it only had a fridge. We were hoping to microwave some food to save cost. Only the suites have both a microwave and fridge. NO ICE FOR GUESTS- we were super bummed about no ice. In the end we found a hotel in Yuma for a few buck more ( Howard Johnson's ) with all amenities we wanted. We were happy to make the move to Yuma. The little restaurant by the hotel was very good!
