Best Western San Marcos Inn

The food was cafeteria food from a high school in the 80’s that has never heard of nutrition. The bathroom sink had dirt in it. A lot! Filthy. Further about the food. Breakfast: Powdered eggs (or what tasted like powdered eggs); coffee was worse than airline food; waffle batter was cheap crap, 3-4 levels lower than Bisquick; overall not good. Don’t waste your time. less

Why is this not the first line of every review? I know we are by the ocean but it is a hotel and there is not much air flow. Room was too warm and stuffy for me to be comfortable. If it was really cheap, fine but was the same price as others with air conditioning. Definite deal breaker. Rooms feel really small but have everything including fridge, microwave, coffee. Bathroom is so small I can barely fit at 6’ tall. No exhaust fan? A window that can be seen easily by people walking by. Staff is very friendly and service was good. Complimentary coffee all day, wine in the afternoon. Breakfast is standard eggs bacon, pastries, cereal, waffles. Good for free. Good location, quick walk to the bay. Easy to park. Overall it is average but I need a room that has a better layout and please some ventilation! less

They were exceptional, quiet, and most of all a room facing the ocean. The wine, cheese, and crackers was an big plus with my husband and I. Oh the TV was huge in my book...yeah I will go back again.. less

Hotel generally was ok. Breakfast is good. Location is good. One point, that I wanted to make is to ask the management: please, explain Antwon that cheating and bullying people is not very good. In BW application there is no information about the deposit. He was lying into my face that there is (I showed him app and he told me, that the phrase "The payment for your stay will be charged to guarantee your reservation" means, that he will hold additional 50 bucks on my card. I told him repeatedly - I am not arguing about paying, I just want to be warned in advance. As a response to this, he told me, that "If I am not paying I will not stay here and this is not a problem for the hotel". I saw such a relation to the client first time in my life, honestly, and I am staying 75 nights a year in different hotels. less

Hotel has been a second home for years, and is always a great stay. The Front Desk staff at this location are the best anywhere, and the Hotel is in a great location. Rooms have plenty of space and are always clean. This is an awesome Hotel, again, more than anything because of the Front Desk staff. less
