breakfast is not included, so i should keep this in mind to judge it ... but the place is lovable, lot of green even though it's full of old people playing golf. Internet connection is perfect. Even though there is a resort fee i do not understand, the price is ok for what you get. The room was also clean... more

We enjoyed every single moment spent at this beautiful resort and I wanted to share some of my experience at this location. The staff members have hearts of gold (especially Sue, she was awesome!). Checking in was pleasant, the room was fantastic - oh, and the view of the lake was PHENOMENAL! Whether you get a lake view room, or... more

This hotel is nothing special. There were numerous in room problems, including electrical and plumbing and at one point the TV. The front desk was fairly responsive with sending up maintenance, a lamp that was promised to be replaced never was and I should not have had to call so many times. Rooms should be inspected and made ready before... more

After booking my stay at the San Marcos Lake Resort as a package with my flight (cheapest available). I promptly went onto websites looking at reviews. I became concerned with stories of foul odors, noisy rooms, dirty and out-date furniture. I called the hotel, asked to speak with a manager, explained the situation. She upgraded us to a room on... more

I stayed at this hotel on my way down to San Diego to watch the 2008 US Open. It's about a 25 minutes north of San Diego and it fit perfectly into my itinerary. I checked in about 8 P.M. There was 2 gentlemen working the front desk and they were very very courteous and helpful. The main lobby was... more

My husband and I stayed here last night - Sunday, May 25th, 2008. I am 23 and my husband is 27. We checked in with no problem and it was fast. The 2 men at check-in were nice, friendly and let us know we could call at anytime to ask for them to look something up since I had forgotten... more

This hotel was billed as a three star. It is old, run down, and filthy. The bedspread had to be 40 eyars old at best. The walls are paper thin and you can hear everything!!! We have stayed at motels 6 that were much nicer than this. PLEASE be advised. Find antoehr place to stay PLUS they charge a 9... more

When we arrived, we asked for an upgrade. The clerk, who was bordering on rude, offered us a lakefront room for an additional $30 per night. We declined and went and saw our room. The smell was a little odd and the pink walls, dirty-looking carpet, dated bedspread, and totally funky hairdrawer (looked like a vacuum cleaner hose) were disappointing.... more

I must say, when I booked this property through priceline.com and my bid of $60/night was accepted, I was quite skeptical. Especially after reading some of the reviews on this website. But after my stay, I was pleasantly surprised. I'll start from the beginning. The property was easy to find. Check-in went smooth and the employees at the desk were... more

I was part of a group that stayed at the Lake San Marcos Resort. The first thing my roomates and I noticed was a strong smell of smoke and ashtrays that weren't fully cleaned in our musty room. We also noticed the carpets were in need of a cleaning. We called the desk to say we requested a non-smoking room... more
