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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

The ease of check-in was nice after a long drive. The room was clean, simple, no frills and exactly what was needed for a shower and some sleep. Very quiet until the neighbor enters their room, then you realize the walls are kind of thin. Fortunately, the noise didn't last long. Bathroom was clean. Being your own toiletries as a small shower bar and a sample pack of conditioning shampoo is all that is provided. I would stay here again if I'm needing an affordable spot. Enjoyable nights stay for a last minute trip. Thank you!!

Decent spot for doing a quick wine tour! Nothing fancy but clean & neat. Owner/manager was very friendly and welcoming…. Walked us to the room to make sure everything was in working order. Better price than anywhere else in town!
