A fireplace and jacuzzi tub in room, with a lovely deck to relax on. Beautiful garden sitting area. All cozy and quiet. But a quick walk to the ocean front or to Carlsbad Village for dining, beach activities and nightlife. The Inn is a perfect retreat.

We arrived from out of state to check in. There’s no one there to assist us. A text message indicates you contact them via a provided thread however no one responded. There’s a phone number but I attempted several times to contact them. No one answers the phone and you can’t leave a message. This place runs on auto pilot and there is no service. Our room smelled of mildew and the carpet has many obvious stains. If your idea of Bed and Breakfast is a granola bar and a cup of coffee from the kurig you will be pleased.
