Stayed at Don Eddie's last month. Water was hot, price was fair, rooms were clean (I mean, don't lick the bedspreads, but the place is fine).
Restaurant there was closed, so we had dinner at Old Mill...good food, big drinks. Were actually gonna have breakfast there as well next day, but
woke up (somewhat hungover) and they were blasting 3 Doors Down at 9AM (why?!??!?!?!), so we motored ahead to Viejo San Quintin which, if you haven't
been there yet, is a MUST for breakfast in the area.

I have to admit being very partial to Hotel Jardines. Noting that the original post mentioned a Monday Night stay, that happens to be the one night
the Restaurant Jardines is closed.
I have to admit that I have been through the San Quintin area on Mondays, and have always been annoyed that their restaurant is closed Mondays.
However, the restaurant proprietors, Carlos and Esmeralda operate two restaurants in the area (Viejo San Quintin next to the hospital on Mex 1), and
they have two small children.
In a conversation I had recently I recently had with Esmeralda, I told her that I really didn't know how they were able to juggle everything they
have.
Esmeralda's father Guillermo, who runs the hotel, told me he could not be more proud of his daughter.
Just saying that, with the exception of Mondays, Restaurant Jardines is the first place I would choose for dinner.

Don Eddie's is my choice, though I will admit I have not stayed the night in SQ for two years or so. Far from luxurious, Baja funky, but the rooms are
clean and cheap. It's VERY quiet, and I have TWO restaurants within walking distance. I like it. But, as long as the rooms are clean, I'm also easy. I
don't go to Baja to stay at the Hilton, and that's a good thing, cause there ain't any (:lol .
I will NOT stay at the Cielito Feo. I draw the line at c-ckroaches, and dirty sheets and left-over underwear on the floor. Plus the tequila they use
in the Margaritas really sucks. I think it might me mixed 50/50 with turpentine.

I have been staying at Jardines since they opened and will never go back. It is wise to get reservations.
