Pros +

  • Great breakfast
  • The young lady that checked us in that night was super nice she even called up to the room to see if everything was okay.
  • Hotel was exceptionally clean. Staff was friendly and professional. Morning breakfast staff were friendly and helpful. Location is close to interstate 35 without being on the access road. Now my hotel of choice in San Marcos.

Cons -

  • We could hear people/kids running and jumping in room above at night and loud teenagers running in and out of rooms and down the halls.
  • The hot tub was not getting hot
  • Front desk didn¿t know anything. I had a bigger room meaning I paid more on my first night I had to fix my moms bedding because they just gave me sheets even though there was a live in housekeeper which I later found out about.

Black out shade on window. Minimum electronic lights on in room when dark. Dry fresh and clean room. Great breakfast!
