The hotel (our room -104-)seemed dated and the bathroom floor was dirty. The sheets and blanket seemed old and not soft. If you are placed in room 102, 103 or 104 ask to be moved because you will hear the parking gate below you creaking open and shut all day/night long

This is a super convenient location. A short walk to everything! It is an older property so that’s evident from some of the furniture and the rooms have a musty damp smell. We’ve been there before and it didn’t bother us much. We opened the patio door for fresh air.

Great location. Across the street from Carlsbad State Beach. Easy to walk to restaurants and shops. The ocean view is worth it with a big patio. The room was big with a nice bathroom and king bed. Nice hot water in the shower. Will stay again
