As the one of the Mexican cities closest to America – it sits right next to America's Calexico, separated only by the Mexico-American border – the capital of Baja California that is Mexicali has earned a reputation as the closest city to an American city found in a whole other country. Apart from the proximity to the United States, this reputation is also based on the fact that the population of Mexicali is pretty mixed racially – people from beyond the America-Mexico border as well as the not-too-far-away international borders come to settle in this city-municipality. The resulting cultural integration has made this modern and progressive Mexican territory a popular tourist destination as well as business conference venue, prompting the need for places like the Motel Minols.
The Motel Minols is located a handful of minutes in to the highway that links Mexicali to Tijuana in Mexicali Baja California Mexico. Situated southwest of Mexicali's city proper, the Motel Minols is just a short distance away from the city's Bosque y Zoologico (Forest and Zoo in English) in Lazaro Cardenas Boulevard, which is one of the area's more interesting and educational features. Many people think that because the Motel Minols is in the southern part of Mexicali, there would be not much to find and do apart from the above-mentioned Bosque y Zoologico. The fact is, however, that there are exciting attractions, activities and advantages that are readily available to guests of the Motel Minols. For example, the highway to Tijuana on which the Motel Minols stands merges into the Calzada H. Colegio Militar, which, of course, features the Military District of Mexicali – it is, if anything, a piece of interesting social architecture. The Motel Minols is also just a handful of minutes away from the hearest hospital (Red Cross, at least) and police station so in-hotel emergencies (not that there are many, but an extra sense of security is a good thing) would get virtually immediate responses. Other features of the area on which the Motel Minols is built is a nearby industrial area where hardware items are famously sold wholesale for rather low prices.
The Tijuana Highway on which the Motel Minols is found, as was implied before, connects to the Lazaro Cardenas Boulevard, one of the major roads in Mexicali. This road on which the Bosque y Zoologico rests links guests of the Motel Minols to Calzada Anahuac, which leads straight up to the central bus station – from there, they can more flexibly tour the city municipality. Calazada Anahuac also leads people staying at the Motel Minols to the Calafia Plaza, the general area of which is known as the home of Mexicali's famous bullfighting arena and a number of shops, restaurants, bars, and clubs.
