Perfect location, wonderful staff, relaxing heated pool, and Old Vallarta charm. The staff were friendly and helpful. Access to the sister hotel pool was welcome for us, as my husband couldn't get into the pool at the Garlands (the steps were too deep for his limited mobility), but a short walk, and we enjoyed a lovely roof top pool. Jesus was an attentive and friendly bartender, and the desk staff was great. Yvan was helpful and attentive, as were other staff whose names escape me. The location is wonderful. Two short blocks to the beach, and great restaurants all around. Trattoria Nuevo is a beautiful little Italian restaurant with live music. We enjoyed our stay at Garlands very much, and hope to return before too long.

Cigarette smoke ruined my stay

The Garlands Hotel allows smoking on its premises and ruined what otherwise would have been a pleasant stay. Smoking occurred at a common outdoor balcony and the smoke drifted into stairwells and my room. This was not only unpleasant but the second-hand smoke endangered everyone's health. Staff did not take corrective action. Because of this, I will not return to the Garlands until it is completely smoke free.

Beautiful place and all the workers were absolutely the best and helped with our special week, but it is entirely way too loud at all hours of the night don’t matter what day it is!! Had to go buy a fan to drawn out the noises it was so bad!! People working on stuff in the middle of night, banging on walls, extremely loud traffic at all nights with blared music and honking!!

Wonderfully eclectic and authentic feel. The open air courtyard made waking up lovely, though if you wanted silence I would recommend closing your patio doors and windows since you can hear activity pretty easily. Staff was very kind and helpful. If you want to use the hot tub you need to let them know beforehand so they can heat it up. Location was a close walk to everything without being right in the middle of it all.
