This is as close to the beach as you can get. They keep the property in pristine condition. Everything you might need is close by. Staff is friendly and competent. I’ve stayed her about eight times, and it’s always a pleasure.

You can’t beat the location… Across the street from the beach with easy access! The town of Carlsbad is very walkable and charming! I love that they had parking with the room and a pool and two hot tubs! The breakfast was OK unless you’re used to having more choices but the waffle they made was good!

Excellent location across from the Carlsbad beach with attentive staff. We felt comfortable there and there is a beautiful courtyard with pool and two hot tubs. Nice touch to have a recreation room available until 11 pm. We enjoyed our evening tea. The free parking and continental breakfast was great too.

I love the location, all you have to do is walk across the street and you are at the beach. I selected the room with a beach view. It was nice sitting on the balcony and watching the sunsets. They do offer a breakfast, but the items are limited. The property is also within walking distance to the village with shops and restaurants. If you are there on a Wednesday you can also check out the farmers market. They also have secured parking at no charge which was a plus. The building is older but everything is kept very clean. This is the second time I have stayed here and I plan on staying there again.

Prefect spot for a one night trip to SD with the family. The staff at the front was quick and nice. The rooms were shockingly big. We had a small patio with a partial view. We were going to legoland and the hotel was super close by. I loved it was right next to downtown Carlsbad. We will definitely be back.
