The service was amazing. The room was very clean and just right for my overnight stay.

Unfortunately threre was a city festival & the driveway to the motel was closed off. Had to park very far away and carry luggage at check in and check out. Front desk did help with luggage for check in and helped me find parking
Renee, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Gotta say this was a great place to stay for price. Friendly staff easy check in . Room was very clean as thats the biggest thing for us. Beds are very comfy too. Now place and rooms are older and outdated but that does not mattter as it had everything we needed and again CLEAN. Now if you're looking for a luxurious option this is probably not for you. But if you're not needing a luxurious and expensive place this is it. We will Definitely stay here again.

Great for the price and location

It was clean, quiet and easy. It’s a 2 star motel, but the price and location to Solvang was great.
Lance, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

The room was what we expected based on the budget and location. Nothing special or exceptional, but generally clean and safe. It was a great budget-friendly option to visit Solvang, which was a quick 10-min drive away.
Jacqueline, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The property could use some upgrades, but the price was below others in the area. It was clean, no smell, and easy to get to. Staff was very helpful and nice.

I enjoyed the two nights I spent there

Quiet, clean and comfortable. Friendly front office people. The air conditioning and mini fridge were a nice touch. San Marcos Motel was exactly what I needed.

Sean, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Not worth it

If there is no option then stay at this motel else look for better one. Very old place for the price over $100. We paid $170 for a old moldy motel definitely not worth it.
Saurabh, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Very kind courteous respectful staff all around. Privacy respected and a good value. Comfy beds and bedding, you can see and smell the clean and quiet too.
Stephanie, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Convenient, Clean & Affordable

Highly convenient location. Comfortable bed, everything you need in a room, including refrigerator-freezer, AC, cable TV and wi fi. Not fancy by any means. Next to no bathroom amenities and the towels were on the small side and well washed. For the price we were pleased. I appreciate the convenience of driving up to the door and that all rooms were on the street level.
