I loved the property, I loved the staff, and the complementary breakfast was super. The lights in my bathroom and shower area did not work.

On 4/5, the toilet broke and the property manager could not repair the toilet until the next afternoon. So, we were told to use the bathroom facilities in the lobby and were given access to a unit 2 floors above ours for toilet access. I told manager that it was not satisfactory. We are seniors and having to use the toilet in places other than our room was a hardship. The Assistant General Manager, Jacob Jutkins, agreed to refund the larger room's night stay and explained that would be more than happy to explain the situation to Expedia. The refund had to be made by your business. So, we now await your business to make the adjustment. If I do not hear from you within 48 hours, I plan to call Customer Service.

Greetings Mr. Molina,Please accept our sincerest apologies for the inconveniences that you experienced during your stay. It is unacceptable what was asked of you, and that is not in any way indicative of the service our guests deserve. I see on your folio that you were refunded the larger room's night as Jacob promised. I will email you another copy of your folio now reflecting the refund that was made on the day you checked out of the hotel. If there is anything else we can do to assist you further please do not hesitate to reach out. Safe travels.

Studio king was clean and spacious. I liked the room for the kitchen and comfortable bed. Each night was quiet. I stayed on 4th floor for 4 days. Staff were kind and welcoming and breakfast was good each day with plenty of options such as egg soufflé, cheese omelette or scrambled eggs, bacon, sausage and turkey sausage.

We stayed here to attend a wedding. This facility was a place to sleep and get to the wedding. Not a vacation. The free breakfast was fair the waffles and bacon was one. Found the staff was very helpful. When we got the into the room we found that the bathroom sink had a slow drain. We called the front desk and they sent someone to take care of it asap. Easy parking and easy to get around quickly. The facility is a little tired and needs some updating.

My family and I stayed for 1 night and our kids loved the room. I still couldn’t believe that we got that room; king bed with a pull out; for the price we did. We had to change our reservation from 12/22 to 12/29 because we all got sick before Christmas but it ended up working out better for us in the long run. We loved the fact that the room had a microwave, full fridge with ice maker, utensils, and a dishwasher. The breakfast was awesome and had a bit of everything. My kids enjoyed hot fluffy and fresh made waffles along with bacon and juice. While the wife and I had eggs, muffins, fruit and coffee. Overall the staff was nice and friendly, we had no problems checking in and had all our questions asked. We will definitely be staying there in the future whenever we travel that area again.

We have not used the property and still changed the full price for all the days. Because of sudden sickness, we had to cancel the trip. Yes, property can charge some penalty but charging full price is unfair. And do not understand what is the advantage of booking through Expedia, if they can not help their customers in such situations ? When called the property they say talk to Expedia as booking through them. And when called to Expedia, they say the property is not willing to make any refunds or credits to be used to stay in the same property, if not any Marriott property. This does not provide you comfort of being cared for as a customer.

Area was very quiet and the Check In Desk Rep were Kind. But When I enter the Room and open the Cabinet under the Sink I found one live Cockroach. I called the Front Desk and I asked for the Manager but he was not available nor called me back. I worked up next day morning and one more Cockroach came out. I called the Front Desk and asked for Manager but he was not available and never called me back. I can always moved the Room to other Room but I was very disappointed about Manager being negligence about this issue. And this Hotel is not like motel. It is Marriot and I am also a member of Marriot Bonvoy. It is not like $ 100 per night room. I spent over $ 300 per night. I think this is their Maintenance Problem.

It was convenient to a family gathering we were attending. The breaakfast was very good and had a different menu each day. The elevators were having problems which caused a line to form. I am sure they are fixed by now.

Overall, not too bad, but I did expect better from a Marriott location. There was a hole in the carpet, and the carpet was frayed on the edges near the refrigerator. The refrigerator was wobbly because one of the support legs that screws on was missing. The refrigerator also had a hose that was sticking out from the side that was dripping water. The toaster didn’t work. On the plus side, I had oatmeal for breakfast (offered as part of the hot breakfast in the lobby), bacon, and a turkey patty. The bathroom was clean upon arrival, and the tv swiveled, so I could watch from the couch or the bed.

Greetings Melissa, thank you so much for giving us the opportunity to host you here in San Marcos and for taking the time to share this valuable feedback. We are sending engineers as I type to address the issues that you listed, as those technical issues are far below the standards you expect and deserve as a guest at a Residence Inn by Marriott. I am very glad that you enjoyed the breakfast and took advantage of the conveniently-placed television. We sincerely appreciate guests like yourself who choose to give us the opportunity to improve our hotel's service and facilities, and we hope that we can earn an opportunity to accommodate you again in the future and provide you with the high quality stay you deserve.
