Great place will definitely book again.

Staff made accommodations from two queens to a king size. Room was clean. Staff was nice gave us extra towels, and we needed them.We did not want to be bugged by room service.So they didn't come to clean the room.While we were there hibernating and enjoying the hotel room. The only thing was the room was hot for me.First got in there, took about an hour in twenty minutes to cool down the entire room

HoJo San Marcus Texas two thumbs up!

I got to the location about 9 hours after my intended arrival, in the MIDDLE of the night, and the clerk was so kind! He even offered to help me carry my bag up the stairs since I had an upstairs room! The bed was amazingly comfy, and the shower was awesome. Even being THAT close to a major highway, the room was quiet, with the door shut, I couldn’t even hear the traffic!
