Never ever again.
Pros:

Location and the employee working the bar/food area was excellent

Cons:

The rooms smelled like an old mop was used to clean the room. The front desk didn’t seem to care. They informed me that the hotel was booked and they couldn’t move me.

Easy place to stay when out at an event all day.
Pros:

It was very simple and clean. We needed a quiet hotel
to just sleep at night, since my daughter was swimming in a swim
meet.

Cons:

The location was ok but I didn’t necessarily want to be near an airport. Refrigerator in our room could have been colder.

Great stay at the Carlsbad Marriott
Pros:

I had a great stay at Courtyard Marriott Carlsbad. The hotel was clean, comfortable, and well-maintained, and the overall atmosphere made it easy to relax after a long day. The location is convenient, and the rooms were quiet and spacious, which I really appreciated.

I especially want to give a shout-out to Abdias for going above and beyond during my stay. He was friendly, professional, and genuinely attentive, making sure everything I needed was taken care of. His positive attitude and excellent customer service truly stood out and made my experience even better.

I would definitely recommend this hotel and would gladly stay here again—great service makes all the difference, and this location delivers.

go to legoland hotel
Pros:

Great Location! The location is perfect if you are going to LEGOLAND.
Rooms were clean and well-maintained. The receptionist, Zak is amazing with his recommendations.

I'm surprised that despite its close proximity to the airport, it was not noisy at all.

Parking was abundant, but they do charge like every other hotel nowadays.

The resto was okay, it was pricey but accessible and easy. The staff were really friendly.

This will be my Legoland got to hotel now.
