I was able to stay in a room with 3 queen beds and it was very spacious. The room was clean. It could use some cosmetic work in the bathroom but overall I was impressed. They were very friendly, clean pool, limited breakfast, but close to everything.

Choose this hotel for price. Graduation weekend Texas State Uni. All hotels basically double normal rates. Hotel doesn’t have an elevator. Had second story room. Had heavy luggage and a dog. Common areas very worn. Room was clean. Struggled every time to close room door when leaving. Lock needed to be repaired. Saw staff on the floor and asked for help with door but they didn’t speak English. Room was on the front side of hotel and close to the freeway. Road noise was bad. Bathroom floor was tiled but had a lot of grout missing between tiles. Front desk employees were friendly enough. Parking was adequate. If ever back in San Marcos, TX would try to stay elsewhere.

The property manager and front desk employee were fantastic! So kind, helpful and genuinely interested in making our stay a good one. The room was very clean. Fresh beds and linens. The bathroom needs a serious overhaul. Rusty fixtures, holes in the walls- small, but there, just dingy. The towels though clean, were thin and rough. However, we needed a room for a night that was affordable. This was perfect for our needs. I would stay there again.

Roaches and smelled.
When we first walked into the room it had an overpowering smell of strong Fabulosa or some type of cleaning product. Even the kids thought it was too much. The room had roaches in the bathroom and along the walls in the room. We saw at least 10 during the one night stay. We made sure to shake out all our items and left our bags in the garage when we got home so we didn’t bring them in our house. It was overpriced and not any better than a cheap motel.

It has no elevator. You lugg everything up and down stairs. The “breakfast” consisted of a waffle, toast/bagel, Raisin Bran or fruit loops. That’s it.
