10/10 Excellent

"It was very clean and quiet."

Homewood Suites by Hilton San Marcos

8/10 Good

"Everything was great, except the bed which was hard and uncomfortable for me (bad shoulders). Lobby coffee was TERRIBLE and the breakfast was meh. The gym was an excellent surprise, given that there were no pictures or mentions of it on expedia leaving me to think it didn't have one. Actually it large and has 5-55lb dumbell sets, 2 each of ellipticals and treadmill's and full cable pully weight system. Tons of mirrors, slam/exercise balls."

"Dont judge a book by the cover. From the outside, this may look like an older hotel. But the rooms have been newly renovated. They are very spacious, comfortable, accommodating, clean, and relaxing. They are on par with other major hotels. I recommend staying here if you're passing through town or if you are planning to visit the outlet mall! The staff is wonderful and was able to fix an issue with my television!"
