Hotel staffs were friendly. The room and bed were fine and comfortable. The continental breakfast was typical like scrambled liquid eggs, bacon/sausage, waffle maker and standard bread selection. we like the coffee a lot. one suggestion is about the fitness room and the pool. The fitness equipment were broken, rusted and showed being neglected. Pool was not heated to use.

Being located right next to the freeway, I was very worried that it would be loud. However, once inside the building it was VERY quiet. Our room was clean and cozy. We will definitely stay again in the future.

The place is great the only complaint is that the jacuzzi was not working something I did not know from booking online. Other than that the place is like its own little community with a gas station/convenience store, Steak House, and a small convennient store in tne lobby. Excellent place to stay!!

Great place to stay, with easy access to everything close by. Keep in mind though the freeway is right next to the hotel, as is the Coaster train. Everything was very clean, and the shower was huge. Bed was not the most comfortable but the bedding was great. Free breakfast and free parking were a plus, even though we chose to grab food at multiple places in Carlsbad instead since there is so much to choose from. Staff was very nice too! We would stay here again.
