The staff at this hotel really make you feel at home. Everyone is friendly and courteous. Prices are very reasonable for bottled water and we even bought some Girl Scout cookies. The room was super clean and cozy. The bed was very comfortable and gave us a good night sleep. The only negative is the shower in room 105 -which is very old- but the hotel is slowly being renovated. Breakfast was included and delicious. I’m very happy with our decision to stay here. I would definitely stay again if we are back in the area

Did not have a good stay. When I showed I had a small medical issue they accommodated me in a 1st floor unit. I had a medical emergency and had to leave they allowed me to withdraw the the remaining day left on my room without penalty. Manager showed a caring side. Front desk person was very helpful. I willl stay there anytime I’m in Carlsbad. GOOD JOB CREW…

Loved the vibe of the hotel, it fell short with the cleanliness of the beds and comfortability. Overall everyone was so nice and understanding when we wanted another room due to smell and will stay again in the future!
