Summary: Sam, who checked us in was warm, friendly, and very accommodating. There was something wrong with our first room, and he moved us immediately. You can tell everything is brand new in the rooms, like they totally renovated the hotel. A couple of things that weren't great - the girl that worked a couple of the mornings was not in a rush to get more coffee when I told her they were out. She took an hour to refill the coffee carafes (that's an important beverage in the morning to most of us!). The other was that the bed was definitely old and very uncomfortable. Lastly, the cable TV was really wonky & the channels would just go out in the middle of watching a show. However, given the incredible price and safety of the location, I would stay again.

Summary: "Roach Haven" - Scheduled for 3 nights at Woodspring-Denton.  Saw a roach day one & reported it to front desk (clerk said she'd tell the manager).  I asked if they had any spray and was told no.  This didn't seem logical to me if you know, you have roaches.  A few more roaches began to show themselves.  Day two, spoke to the mgr that morning to confirm the incident at which time he logged it in a book and indicated pest control would be out that day.  I asked a different clerk for some insect spray ... she gave me a can of spray (hmmm ... very odd since I was told they didn't have any the day before). I sprayed the room.  Pest control didn't make it out until the next morning at 8:20.  They sprayed and the roach fest(ival) was on ... as the insecticide drove more of them out of hiding.  This made for an edgy time ... the pinnacle of which was when a roach crawled on one of us that night as we were sleeping.  Shaking my head. Throwing up my hands.

Summary: The hotel is quiet safe and quite pretty. Rooms are updated. The bed is soft and cozy. Sheets were very soft which was surprizing. Very nice blankets on the bed. Assorted thickness selection for pillows on the bed which is so nice. Glass on window is texured so you can not look out but lets light in.. weirdness and i didnt like it. But rooms were clean. There was a lingering smell of fabuloso. Overrated cleaner and im Not a fan of it. Honestly the only downside to this hotel is the smell of mildew throughout the building. If you have allergies or asthma id use caution here. When i say the smell of mildew is strong in the room im not exaggerating. If your not bothered by smells id say this place is quite a little find for the price.

Summary: The hotel was nice. You get more than what you pay for in my opinion. No pests of any kind. I didn't expect any but just to verify, there was none! Temperature from the a/c was excellent. Room size is average. It's very, very clean and the rooms smell so nice. All the staff are very friendly. Breakfast was either sausage links or sausage patties, an odd egg patty thing, and potatoes daily. There is also cereal, oatmeal and toppings and muffins, fruit and yogurt. To drink is coffee, water, milk and juice. Coffee is decent/good. The katin is private, quiet and pretty close to everything. The nearby beaches are beautiful. Definitely recommend El Jardin Beach!

Summary: The staff was friendly, the lobby look beautiful, the water at the swimming pool was very cold, I like the breakfast, room was clean, nice bed, maybe curtains that will close all the way to keep the room a little more dark.

Summary: Every member of staff we encountered was very friendly. Everything was clean and comfortable. The paint showed a little wear in places and the a/c was a little noisy, but overall, a good hotel, especially for the price and location.
