Friendly staff, good location although just off the strip. Clean with comfortable bed. You could see that they had recently did some updates. Finding it was a little challenging at first and parking was a little challenging depending on where your room was. Good restaurant options within walking distance.

Enjoyed my stay here while passing through for a night. Appreciated that the mattresses had protectors on them. The room was comfortable and the area was quiet. There were several stains on the bedding and carpeting, but over all it was clean. Would recommend staying here.

My bathroom sink was dirty. It took a long time to check in because the clerk was unsure of herself and was new and poorly trained. My keys didn’t work. No ice bucket or do not disturb card. My room smelled strongly of men’s cologne the entire two days. Uggghhh. The maid was nice and checked in frequently. I left her a good tip.

Nice hotel and newly renovated! The place was quiet and room was large. The only cons is that the parking limited and for some reason the deadlock did not work.

Great stay

I really enjoyed my stay here. You can tell this is an older place that has been renovated. The room was pretty clean. You can just tell on the baseboards it needs like a deep clean, but overall it was clean and I was happy. The bed was super comfortable. The shower was great. I loved having the mini fridge and microwave. I will definitely stay here again when I come back to Carlsbad! The front desk was wonderful and so helpful anytime I needed anything.

We think it's great how it was remodeled but still has the looks of an old motel; great to walk around for dining options. The only suggestion we may have is to add some fruit during breakfast, other than that we had an excellent stay.
