Grayson at the front desk was super helpful during a very stressful time and I really appreciate him. He was kind, compassionate, professional and empathetic to my situation. The rooms were nice, our stay was pleasant and I will definitely stay here again, but Grayson is the main reason Candlewood Suites will always be my choice in San Marcos. Employees, especially your frontline, truly make the difference.

Great location and very easy to get to. A very good stay at a good price. Great bed but pillows too soft for me. A/C and heat worked perfectly and quietly. I love the full kitchen because we eat in the room often. Coffee in the lobby is MUCH better than the coffee in the room. The room had sugar and sweet & low, but no creamer. Had to go to the lobby each morning to fix up my coffee.The staff was great. I would definitely stay here again.
