Pros: The presence of a fridge in the room was nice. The air conditioning was also nice
Cons: The location of the hotel is just by some sort of high way. We did not find any possibility to go anywhere walking, we always had to take the car.
Just opposite our room there were building works

Pros: We enjoyed the staff. They were excellent at their jobs and friendly. The bathroom was great. Good shower, plenty of towels. The magnifying mirror was a bonus and much appreciated. We had two meals on property both were good and a fair value.
Cons: There was a bee nest on the patio where the beam and the outer wall meet. We closed the patio door, two bees still got in my husband was stung twice.
The next morning we did tell staff, the came up and sprayed the bees right away. Offered us a different room, however we were leaving that day.

Beach and the center, you need to take a buss or taxi. After 11pm definitely a taxi 250 pesos, about $12. If you go to Cabo for leisure and fun try to get different hotel, closer to the center.

Pros: Loved the Los Patios and would absolutely stay there again. Friendly staff. Great cheap drinks and good food (basic menu) Margs and pinas were about 3.50 USD, dinner for two was 20.00 bucks with drinks. Lovely and local flare courtyard with gardens. Very very well kept. Enjoyed the courtyard music. Changed genre according to time of day. Very unique set up to access rooms, almost open air, palms planted along hallways that reach through to the sky. The woodwork in the rooms and shelving in the bathroom is very nice. Great hot water and pressure. Separate toilet room, rather modern I thought. Comfy bed and good linen. Absolutely loved how both the sliding doors to access the patio slid away and opened up the whole room to the patio. I found it perfect. Extended two more nights even. Did not want to move, but we wanted to go to San Jose del Cabo to escape the crazyness of Cabo.Tips: Ask for a room that has the hammock facing the courtyard. We had a fridge in our room too. Just ask if its not there.Rent a car. $20 USD for the whole week from Ace. Driving is not as scary as you may think. They fill your car for you and take a credit cards. No worries.Good to have plenty of Pesos rather than dollars for your time in Los Cabos. Exchange rates can be different (17-20) and you never know if you get correct change if you pay in dollars.Closest nice quiet beach is Playa Santa Maria or Playa Las Viaduas, both towards San Jose. Playa Palmilla was in our opinion the best one. Excellent tide pools and snorkeling, soft sand, and you can rent a kayak. Avoid Medano beach if you want to relax. Go there to book a tour for your haggled price, then bail. (They always will drop the price....on anything). Too much vendor harassment for me. Constant and annoying.Bring your own snorkel equipment. Any swimmable beach you drive to in the area, you can snorkel on your own. Saw amazing fish at every bay we went to.
Cons: Private patio chairs in addition to the hammock would have been nice. Service from the restaurant was so-so. Just ask for the check as soon as you can to avoid waiting around. Found this to be the case at all places in the area. Bummer its not a bit closer to downtown. Need a car to make this place work out. Our car was a fantastic value and we were all over the place, even up to the beaches north of LaPaz (highly recommend). The highway is crazy and the hotel is right on it. However I was not bothered by the busy road; could not hear it at all in the open courtyard or our patio. The breakfast we did not bother with. They never gave us any passes or anything. Nothing was ever out available in the mornings. Coffee once in a while. So we just ate our own fruit, fresh cheese, beans and tortillas for breakfast....and packed lunch. :) The center round pool is not a hot-tub, it just looks like one. Maybe was a hot-tub the past.

Pros: Huge pool
Cons: No windows in the room, the tiny terrace with hammock was completely enclosed by walls and had no view. It felt like a prison cell. We checked in early in the morning, but when we came back later, no reservation was made for the room we had asked for. The personnel in the restaurant was unfriendly. The breakfast which is included in the price is awful. If You want a better breakfast You have to pay extra.

Pros: The hotel was nice and clean. I love the hammock on every balcony. My room had a pool view. Staff was nice. The water pressure in the shower was amazing. Bus stop right outside so you can save money versus taking a taxi.
Cons: The hotel doesn't have face towels. For the Continental Breakfast you get fruit or cereal but you can't have both. That doesn't make sense to me seeing as though it's the miniature box of cereal.

Pros: Quiet low-key place. Nice to come back to the beautiful patio/bar/pool space after the business of downtown Cabo. Friendly staff. David at the front desk was great! Clean. Nice private patio with hammock. This was a bargain! I would stay here again. Bus stop right in front of the hotel was super handy. We used public transit the entire stay and recommend it if you want to save alot of money. Took bus to/from airport for only 80pesos apiece (about $5).
Cons: It is 3-4 KM outside downtown Cabo, which for some people would be a negative. We did not mind it at all. We took the public transit bus for 13 pesos each into town (bus stop directly in front of hotel) without any issues. This is much much cheaper than private taxi. The hotel is close to 2 good restaurants Asi y Asado and Vagabond Trailer Park. But it is only about a 5 minute drive to town or maybe 10 minute by bus. I would only walk it in daylight, since sidewalks are a bit spotty.

Pros: The employees, including the restaurant staff, were all friendly, helpful & took very good care of us. The breakfasts & the tortilla soup were very good, we had our dinner there several times during our 8 day stay. Although the hotel is on a major street, it was quiet & peaceful, perfect for reading or napping on the patio. We were happy to discover a safe in our room. Beach towels are also provided.

Pros: I recently spent 8 days on a girls' trip at Los Patios. I was happy to discover a safe & a refrigerator in our room & free wi-fi. The employees were all professional, friendly & helpful. Our room was comfortable & clean. We were provided with everything we requested. Our meals were very good, be sure to try the tortilla soup. Eduardo, our desk clerk, helped us plan trips to the blown glass factory (a must see activity!), Cabo San Jose & Todos Santos (also a must see). He also helped us navigate the bus system on our arrival. Yes, a trip to the beach requires a bus or taxi ride but the hotel provides a quiet stay, even though it's on the highway. The patio was perfect for relaxing & reading or napping. I would definitely stay here again. Next time I won't pack my own beach towel as they are provided.

Pros: Local's place. Great manager. Had a problem with a noisy room. Ibarra moved me to a quieter room and didn't charge me for the that night's stay. You can't ask for more.
Each room has a private patio with a two person hammock.
The small restaurant in the Hotel is quite good and reasonable. Chef David is creative and the dishes were flavorful. Close to stores and five minutes drive to town.
Cons: The rooms could use more lights.

Cons: The hotel was supposed to be a short walking distance to the beach but it was actually quite far, not a lot of local food options near by, staff weren't fully English speaking, not many TV channel options, and most channels were in Spanish without subtitles.

Pros: The pool area was very pretty early morning ....but full of kids and people ( most not staying at the hotel) day and night. The hours say till 8pm but people were in it well past midnight. Negative : Beer cans everywhere floating/food in and around the pool.
Cons: Cockroaches... Huge cockroaches! We got a junior suite in the photos online (which took us weeks to decide on) it looks beautiful. When you walk into the room, we were saddened by the actual look of the rooms and establishment. It looks more like a motel 6 in a bad part of town. The patio walks out to a boxed in patio area where the cockroaches were. There was trash everywhere along the patio portion of our room. Never any hot water. After the first night we left and went somewhere else. It took nearly a week to get our refund and since we don't have a Mexican bank account, they had to write us a check in pesos. Which we had to go back for twice to even get.

Pros: The pool area is very nice.
Cons: The hotel is located right next to the city freeway - first shock for us. Even if the pool area is nice (the hottub doesn't work by the way), the rooms are ugly, a bit smelly and dark. One does not feel homey at all. Our balcony faced a brick wall. The food in the restaurant is extremely bad, the hamburger was below McDonald's/Burger King quality, and the pasta with tomato sauce had no flavour. The included breakfast consists of a small plate of fruit and one toast per person. We basically had to beg for another toast... All in all, this was our worst hotel experience in Mexico.

Pros: I loved that the hotel was close to Costco and Walmart, made it easy to buy drinks, food, and snacks. Very clean facility, staff was awesome and very helpful. Front desk changed my room number to be close with our other party, the bar tender loaded our drinks and suggested places to visit while in Cabo. It's away from the downtown/party area. Pool was very relaxing, our room had a small backyard patio with a hammock. Drinks and food at hotel were good and not pricey at all. You definitely get your moneys worth if your a simple person who doesn't need all the glitz and glamour.
Cons: our A/C unit did not work, but we opened our patio sliding door and the breeze made up for it! The food service was a little slow, but worth the wait.
