We stayed their 5 nights and liked it very much. My children had a nice time in hotel swimming pool, it was clean and hotel is just couple... more

Motel is not the creme of the crop but it wasn't dirty--just aged. Room was clean. Bathroom-and shower were acceptable--clean and functionable. However, the towels were "cheesy" thin, no fiber to them-- maybe something like you would get in a "flop-joint" so to speak. No coffee in the room. The office had a very small and not too inviting breakfast... more

My daughter and I had to make a quick trip to visit Texas State University. I found a cheap hotel with a vacancy at the Econolodge online.

I was plesantly surprised at the neatness and cleanliness of the room at the price we paid. AC worked well. Very important! Daughter is attending school there. We will make it our regular place of accomodation when in San marcos. Also Pool was clean. more

My family had a nice stay at this hotel, beds were new and comfortable, carpet seems new and room had nice smell. I would recommend your lodge and I'll stay here again. Liked the location as very near to University and Outlet Malls. Breakfast need more items, staff were very helpful. Thank you for taking care for my family. more

The hotel is a little old, the rooms I think that are insecure, but the location and price is OK. We were there 4 days for shopping and the Hotel is enough...(they can offer more in their breakfast I think)... more

I let my husband book and find a hotel for our stay in San Marcos. We only needed to stay for one night and I figured I could live with whatever he found. I was pleasantly surprised that this hotel was clean and it also smelled good. You know how some hotels have that stale smell? This one was good... more

Non-Smoking only means there is nobody smoking at the moment. Cobwebs in the bathroom; sheetrock coming off walls; filthy carpeting; towels were gray from previous use. No need to complain - Managers are college kids. Very disappointing. more

Management response from
hims1980, General Manager

Guest had booked smoking room, when arrived at hotel, wanted a non smoking room, we were sold out. We had guaranteed what the guest had made the reservation.
