Ayres Hotel Vista Carlsbad

"Great stay as usual! This place never disappoints."

Residence Inn by Marriott San Diego North San Marcos

10/10 Excellent

"The Residence Inn by Marriott is a very clean and well maintained hotel, with a great parking area, convenient to main roads and Interstate 78 near shops, restaurants, fast food, and convenience stores. The Junior Suite where we stayed was large enough and had a nice kitchen with all the appliances plus pots, china, utensils, coffee maker, etc. The front desk attendants, manager and service workers offered a great level of customer service. The breakfast is excellent and offer a good variety of pastries, waffles, cereals, yogurts, juices, coffee, etc. The swimming pool is clean and very nice. We had a great time and will stay at this hotel again and again. We recommend this hotel."
