Great Place to stay
There are many nice things about the Hawthorn, location wise it is about as close as you can get to the airport, the major highway is within a few miles, there are dozens of resturants in walking distance and a nice mall very close as well. Having to travel to Juarez each day was also a breeze.
The hotel has several amenities that are great, nice pool and sauna, decent workout room. Everyday from 5 to 7pm they have a free happy hour with drinks and appetizer buffet.
My only complaint is the lack of high-speed internet access in every room. They do have a computer with internet access in the lobby but expect to wait in line to get on and don't expect to spend a lot of time online.
Overall it has made my trips to El Paso more comfortable.
