I like to browse the reviews on Trip Advisor sometimes and I noticed this place had 21 excellent review (5 out of 5) and nothing less, which means it must be really good! 8) Very few hotels get that kind of rating.

Apparently this Playa del Ingles guesthouse is very clean and the hosts are friendly. One of the most common complaints about hotels in Gran Canaria is that they are dirty or grimy but this place is really clean.

About 4 years ago we had some friends from Dublin, Ireland staying here and I have vague memories about visiting them one sunny afternoon. They loved it here too and had no complaints.

Included in the price is a pick-up from and back to the airport and a small pool. Laurence and Eddie are the owners of Jardin Guesthouse and it seems that they will do their very best to ensure you have a pleasant stay.

If you’ve stayed here let me know what you thought. Do you disagree with the 5 out of 5 rating or did you have a wonderful time? :-)

These apartments sometimes get good reviews as you can see here and average ones like you can see here.

If you are looking for 4 or 5 star luxury I would choose another place, perhaps Gloria Palace or Tamarindos. If you just want somewhere to lay your head after partying until the early hours, Koka Apartments might suit you. It is 200 metres from the beach. These apartments might be very basic but they are clean and affordable.

Being that high up does have its advantages because you will be able to see over the whole of Puerto Rico.

The accommodation is cheap and cheerful so if you’re just looking for somewhere to lay your head these apartments are basic but sound. There is a pool bar and a Netto supermarket nearby.
