Hotel stay

This was my first time at this hotel. My family and i went to lego land first and it was maybe a 10 min drive to there. Hotel staff was welcoming when checking in. They have free parking! They had cookies and milk waiting in the lobby. Rooms were so clean and comfortable. Definitely got great rest. Hotel had complimentary breakfast, and it was amazing. It was not bland like other hotels we stayed at before. This felt like a buffet and my kids enjoyed every second of it. We are a family of 4 and definitely would stay here again!

West Inn is always a priority for us when in Carlsbad. We like everything about it but the matress in the room assigned to us needs to be replaced. It has seen better days, it’s like a sinking boat. I thought they have changed the matresses since we saw a lot of new matresses last year in the covered Parking lot… maybe it’s still a work in progress.

Train horn noise, and I had continuous niose from the bathroom toilet which I found the reason of the noise was due to lack of water filling level because the seal inside the tank wasn't sealing properly after flush. And that noise was loud enough to wake me up from sleep in the bed. I was able to go to sleep after putting on my ear buds with noise canceling. The place itself was in good location and all the staffs were extremely friendly.
