Lovely Ocean View

Pet friendly & wonderful service. They aren't giving out the chocolate chip cookies anymore but I would stay here again. Enjoyed a clean room, yummy breakfast, and friendly staff. Having the ocean view just across the street was the highlight of the overall great experience! Visit the Carlsbad Flower Fields while you're in the area. It's beautiful!

Booked ocean view room via Expedia but when I reached to the property to check in, reception desk lady tells me that they don’t have ocean view room available, after arguing little bit she said let me check and then suddenly room got available, Another issue I had was that water in the sink stink like a gutter water, when you leave it on little bit it gets better

I wish the property would post Please Be Quiet signs. Remind people that they're at a hotel, not their living room. The lack of consideration of the guests is not the hotel's fault but they could remind people to behave better. Just a thought. Otherwise, everything else was great.

Disappointing Experience

Unfortunately, our stay was far from what we had hoped for. The walls were incredibly thin, and the rooms echoed, making it easy to hear every sound from neighboring guests. We were disturbed by loud noises from children running and slamming things above us, which not only disrupted our sleep but also caused our dog to bark at the sudden sounds. At one point, a neighbor even knocked on our door to complain about our dog. It felt as though we had no privacy or peace at all. We came to relax and escape, but instead, we didn’t get the restful experience we were expecting. Additionally, the pool was too cold to enjoy, and considering the gloomy weather, it really should have been heated. The restaurant experience was also disappointing. We ended up paying for breakfast, which we expected to be included, and it wasn’t worth the price. It felt like a basic continental breakfast that you usually get for free at hotels, yet we were charged $25 per person. The food was cold and of low quality, and the server kept hovering over us, which made the experience uncomfortable. Overall, we were really let down and didn’t get the relaxing getaway we were looking for.

A solid hotel option overall. My only reason for not rating this property higher is that our door was in need of repair upon arrival. It needed a strong shoulder to get open. Not ideal, but not the end of the world either. Some areas of the hotel are in need of updates, but it was clean. The staff were all very friendly as well. Proximity to downtown, Legoland, The Flower Fields, and Windmill Food Hall were all 10 mins or less. Great location for families.
