This hotel was ok but not great. It’s old and the parking is very cramped. It was clean and breakfast was adequate.

Location was near Texas State University. It was a last-minute stay; there was availability and the price was excellent. The young lady that assisted us was very friendly and professional. The room was nice and clean. My only complaint, the vent in the bathroom was missing, so it felt a little creepy. Other than that, it was a pleasant stay.

Excellent Last Minute Booking

Front Staff were excellent. Room was quiet and well maintained. Continental breakfast was adequate but could use an upgrade with a few more options.

San Marcos stay

Good location near the rivers and swimming holes. Nice bed. Check in was odd. Had a problem checking in and they double charged me on the hold. My credit card removed it.
