La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham San Marcos Outlet Mall
Great location next to the outlets. Clean rooms and friendly staff. Water pressure in the shower wasn’t the greatest.

Best Western Plus Buda Austin Inn & Suites
Nice clean rooms. Clean lobby. Very thin walls though—we were on second floor and could hear TV and conversation in next room. Coffee/hot chocolate machine in lobby wonderful. Location right next to 35N. Overall stay was pleasant and affordable.

Embassy Suites by Hilton San Marcos Hotel Conference Center
No issues with property. Need a refund for my room because Expedia charged me $250 to change my date and never changed it with the hotel so we did not have a room when we got there. Had to spend another $200 to purchase a room with hotel directly. Will never use Expedia again!

La Quinta Inn by Wyndham San Marcos
Room was spotlessly clean, and smelled nice. I accidentally booked one night, and then a second (instead of two consecutive nights), and staff was very accommodating to "bridge" my reservation. Thanks!
