It's one of the few motels in downtown Carlsbad and very convenient to where I was working. However, the carpet is room was very stained and the air conditioner made a great deal of noise all night. The breakfast selections were very limited.
A perfectly acceptable room in a town that caters to Carlsbad Caverns tourists and oilfield workers.
Air con/heater was obnoxiously loud and first room offered clearly hadn't been cleaned. Otherwise fairly quiet and quite clean. "Breakfast" is meh.
Excellent room, friendly helpful folks.The bathroom was fantastic !!! An absolute best value 1 Anyone going to Carlsbad for any reason should stay here. We hopefully will be back !

Room was great, staff was a bit odd deciding what room I was going to get. Location is excellent for us and the projects we have close by.
This place was really cute on the outside and had super potential. Our actual room was so gross, from the toilet and shower to the fridge and countertops. I was so thankful that we were there to basically sleep only.

Spacious parking lot, clean lobby. Room was spacious with a HUGE comfortable bed. Plenty of water pressure. The coffee maker was missing the tray and was therefore unusable. When I left, the door wouldn’t latch. You could just push it open. I notified the receptionist and manager. Room 116.

Carpets need cleaning
Walls and doors need maintenance
Room was clean and tidy. Staff was ok. Location is great for us. My only complaint is there was no soap in the bathroom. At this price you would expect to have something.

Very large room, friendly staff, overall room was clean except the top of ice bucket ,microwave and refrigerator had a layer of dust on them. Close to wall to restaurants. Good value
What a dump. Don’t do it. My room(206) was disgusting. Stains everywhere. What appears to be blood on one wall. Filthy shower complete with previous guest’s hair everywhere. Also, his food is still in the mini fridge.
