Hotels near John J. Stokes Sr. San Marcos River Park

"I hate to be this way, but this place was awful. The staff was nice, but that’s all I can say that’s good. We were there on a busy weekend for TXST, and everything else was sold out, or we would’ve left. Our room was dirty (my wife went to Target and had to buy a thing of chlorine wipes to clean it). Window held together with duct tape, mini-fridge leaked in spite of a weird hose they had rigged to try to drain the water from the non-working ice maker. Yellow spots on the bathroom walls where fixtures had been removed. Beds with broken springs and creaks. My wife and daughter slept in top on beds due to how suspect the sheets were. Crumbs and filthy from previous guests under mattress. Junk and old appliances around pool, ice machine barely worked. The family clearly loves in the hotel. There’s a group of rooms with no numbers, but the heavy smell of whatever kitchen they have in there. (It’s Indian food, no way to hide that, but jeez, install a vent). I thought the other reviewers were exaggerating. We’re were there for two nights, luckily it was late I to the second night before we saw our first cockroaches, which were in the bathroom. Look, I can handle the “charm” of old and broken down. But a motel should at least be clean. This place is a flip house and should be no more than $30 a night at most."

"It’s a place to lay your head. It’s not fancy but it is a simple place to stay in San Marcos. It’s close to campus."
