The property manager seemed to be mean and tried to push us to follow some rules. We were sitting in the porch or common balcony and smoking at night time when no one was around specifically made sure to not disturb anyone and he suddenly came over and said thats a non smoking property which we did not realize and said sorry for that. But he was like pushing the chairs and taking the pillows we were sitting on and took the chairs and tried to re arrange and started repeating the same thing like it was in rules or something. Anyway, he could be more relaxed because its a vacation spot and people come there to be relaxed mood not to read every rule he has. Other than that bad experience. This property is close to beach Break fast is not bad Parking is not free, you need to find one on the street.

Gorgeous location. Across from one of Carlsbad’s gorgeous beaches. Walkable to lots of dining and shopping and of course the beach! Pretty view on the second floor balcony and a great breakfast. Parking is a little hard and costly at $20 per night but overall, clean rooms, nice amenities, very nice

Perfect location.

Perfectly located at the beach and near great restaurant and shopping options. The facility is somewhat outdated but clean and well-kept with friendly staff and better than average breakfast. Note that there is an elevator but also unavoidable steps, regardless of level. Great price!

This property is great for beach time and family time in Carlsbad. The people who stay here seem to trend towards quiet and serene. The equipment rental is excellent and convenient. The breakfast deck is probably the best in its class, also the option to sit and eat take out or pizza with a lovely view is a highlight. The pool is warm! The staff are friendly and remember you from past trips! Very friendly and welcoming.

Beautifully taken care of motel in the heart of Carlsbad. Gorgeous views from Breakfast dining room and outdoor deck. BREAKFAST WAS VERY hot and had many choices. Parking was safe and secure in individual car ports under the rooms. Easy to walk across the street to beach.Motel pool was crystal clean and warm from what we heard..we did not use it. Next time we will get a room with a balcony. A Great find!

Our stay was enjoyable. The staff was friendly and efficient. It doesn't hurt that the hotel is close enough to the beach that you can watch the sunset, and still close enough to Carlsbad village that you can walk to restaurants
