Top Purgatory Creek Natural Area Hotel Reviews

Holiday Inn San Marcos-Convention CTR Area by IHG

8/10 Good

"Great staff and very clean rooms and properly with plenty of parking. Only issue I had is the same with every San Marcos hotel I’ve stayed at located just off I-35. Horrendous road noise 24 hours a day and finding a room with least amount of noise isn’t easy. Come prepared or get ready for a long noisy night."

"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."
