Peaceful vacation
My stay was good, this was our second time staying at this hotel and again the staff were friendly & professional. My son loves staying at this hotel & wants us to stay there again next year for his annual Spring Break trip. He especially loves the heated pool.

Quick stay
I have stayed at this property many years ago.. I am happy that they are renovating the rooms and pool area. Our room was clean and safe. The parking lot was well lit.

Like the fact that there was near by shops and restaurants, also had a heated pool for the kiddos to enjoy either in the morning or afternoon.
Jonathan, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

We enjoyed our stay here as a family of four. The grounds were nice and kids had room to play. Location was great for us as we were visiting Legoland and the Carlsbad Flower Fields. I wish they had notified us in advance the pool was being remodeled. We likely would have stayed elsewhere. Kids were disappointed they could not swim.
Stephanie, 2-night trip

The sheets were dirty with red stains. You can tell the room was not cleaned prior to the guest arrival

Great hotel. Great drive to Legoland.
Jasmin, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Just okay
The room was fine and the person checking in was lovely, I believe her name was Patricia. But the Jacuzzi was barely warm, it was so filthy outside where people had left trash, towels, cups, and cans, and all kinds of nastiness. When we asked about the Jacuzzi being turned on, the person at the counter said they would send maintenance, but it never showed up.
Irene, 1-night trip

There were 2 unauthorized charges on my card. And I got a receipt for someone else’s stay. Still waiting on my refund.
