Expected better

The laundry room was broke. There is a particular smell that is not fresh. The room was not clean. I saw baby roaches in my room. The experience in its entirety was not pleasant.

10/10 Exceptional

Very convenient location to be able to quickly make it to The Meadows Center for Water and the Environment to train students to scuba dive.
Dean, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

Would not recommend.

Rooms were dated and in need of work, sheets were moist on the bed and the room had a smell. There were bugs in the bathroom that would scatter when you turned the light on. It’s in a sketchy location of San Marcos, people were hanging around the parking lot at night. I personally would not recommend.

Great location. It's very old and not kept renovated very well. It did its job. Good a/c and a hot shower. The parking lot was well lit. This was important to me because I was hauling a trailer.

Outside building and yard could be spruced up, people fixing vehicles in parking lot. Dead roaches in light fixtures. Fairly quiet though considering it was on the access road.
