Which Is Better Stamped Concrete Vs Stone Patio?


I'm thinking of hiring someone to put in a patio.

What are the advantages and disadvantages of having a patio that is either a stamped concrete or a natural stone set in concrete? Are some stones better than others?

I live in a very hot climate if that makes any difference?
