Adelitas was never my favorite spot but, anything that adds competition to HK is a good thing!

Great review. I always enjoy CC!

Thanks for a great review. I'm happy to see CC is continuing to improve. It's a great alternative to HK.

That sucks. I got stopped at the corner near BT five or six years ago. Pretty much the same scenario but they left me my cash. It certainly sobers you up quickly!

Don't rent a car. Traffic is horrible. HK is a 10 minute cab ride from the border. It looks like you're coming from Al. Suggest you fly into San Diego rather than Tijuana. Most TJ flights route you through Mexico City. IMHO, HK's hotel, Hotel Cascadas is decent enough if you get an upgraded room. The basic rooms are great if you're just going to Ariba but, I wouldn't want to spend a couple of nights in one. That said, I've stayed in San Diego and taken the trolley a few times and just spent the evening in TJ. The down side is that customs on the return trip can be a long wait.
