We booked the Studio, King Bed on the 4th floor. Great set up with full refrigerator, microwave, dishes, silverware, stove and dishwasher. Shower, hair dryer, soaps etc in the bathroom was great Layout was comfortable in the room too. Desk for those that have to work plus a dining table for your meals. The staff were great… very helpful, considerate and always smiling. Easy to get to from the 78 highway-east or west.

I’ve stayed at other Marriott properties and overall it was comparable but the pool and spa need to be resurfaced and the water fountains were rusty. The grill was out of order as well. The staff was fabulous and welcoming. The room was lovely and spacious with everything we needed in the kitchen. Plenty of coffee and a variety of breakfast options! This place is conveniently located close to the freeway!

We stayed in room 100. The convergance of the bedroom, bathroom and hallway doors are in kind of tricky to toggle around. Kind of like a puzzle. Not a huge deal. Just a weird design.

In need of reno
This hotel is in desperate need of renovations. The rooms are subpar at best. The lobby, dining are pretty old . Would expect more from the Marriott brand. The pictures on website do mot reflect the reality of the conditions.

Not a great hotel in San Marcos
The hotel was not very clean. There was trash all over the place. Rooms were not fully clean. Towels were stained. Hair all over the bathroom. I would only stay here if it’s the only place available.
