This hotel is very dirty. The bedsheets looked dirty and the flooring seemed like it has never been cleaned for a while. The first room that we were given has a toilet that wasn't working... no water pressure so it could be flushed. The room that we transferred to was also below standard. This hotel needs to be inspected by the health dept. .

I love this location but this place needs some serious help. And im not talking about the property! Staff needs training. Desperately in need of training. Not an ounce of customer service or creative problem solving was to be found until....a female in her 50/60's showed up and CORRECTED the complete LACK of any customer service!

My room was spotless. Their cleaning staff is top notch. They've added a security guard who is on duty all night. This makes for a very quiet and peaceful atmosphere. Coffee in the morning is delicious and available until 10:am. The grounds are well manicured and the beach is just 3 minutes away by car. The office staff are very courteous and helpful. Delightful property.

Overall good. Needs some TLC. And when you reserve a room for two, then you should already have towels for two. You shouldn’t have to carry one set to your room after check in. Additionally, the rooms are advertised with 4 pillows and there were only 2 in our room and they were small.

If you want quiet since there’s no carpet getting upstairs. If you could hear everybody walk around if you have someone above you. The floor wasn’t very clean and no small shampoo or conditioner. Don’t expect a check in an hour early they’ll charge you $30.

The dirtiest smelliest room I’ve ever been in. customer service was great, but it didn’t make up for my room, having ashes all over the place and the stench of cigarette. My bed was probably the cheapest thing I’ve ever laid on, along with the thinnest pillows, ever laid my head on.

I like the staff at the front desk. She was pleasant and answered all our questions. The room prices are very reasonable. This place is about 10-12 minutes walk to the beach. There are stores, banks and restaurants very close by. You can walk pretty much around town. I would come back to this place, and will recommend to friends and family. The room I reserved had two full bed. The room was moderate and clean, the only thing I didn't like was I found a spider on our bed the following morning.

The facilities in the hotel is well maintained and room is well cleaned. There is bunch of shopping and dinning options are around the hotel in this town. Staff is friendly. A few minutes driving distance to Legoland, flower field and premium outlet. Good choice for personal and family travel.

This property has had mixed reviews, but during this stay we enjoyed a perfectly maintained room, convenient and free parking, an optional refrigerator, a nice TV that works, and an all around pleasant room. Plus, the Carlsbad Village location offers a short walk to Carlsbad beaches, numerous restaurants ranging from fine dining to popular fast food, and the Carlsbad Village train station that takes you anywhere from San Diego to points far north of Los Angeles. And the sub-hundred dollar price simply can't be beat.

I had no problem staying at the property. The problem that I didn't like at the property was the front office when checking in and checking out it smelled terrible. It was too much smell of smoke inside the office lol! I didn't like the smell at all because it was really bad. My room that I was staying in was ok, but I didn't like the ac inside the room. The ac was kind of slow. You couldn't feel air coming out of the ac. The bathroom was clean, but they didn't supply any shampoo or even put lot of towels in the bathroom. I was able to sleep at night but there were some weird noises outside my stay. Looks like there was a homeless person making loud noises for no reason. The area was little bit small. Parking was really small and not that big of a space. I did like my stay at the property, but I feel like it could have been better the area of the property.
