Generally pleasant. no big issues.
Pros:

early breakfast ; clean .

Cons:

We were told that our room would be cleaned every other day but the room was not serviced on the third day. I reflected that situation on a text survey, and someone came up with some trash bags, towels, and a coffee as per my request pretty immediately.

Pros:

Das Hotel war in Ordnung, Sauberkeit und Ausstattung waren in Ordnung. Frühstück normal typisch amerikanisches Hotelfrühstück.

Cons:

Wir hatten in der ersten Nacht eine ordentliche Lärmbelästigung durch Typen die Nachts auf dem Parkplatz am Hotel ihren Schrott von einem Fahrzeug in das andere um geladen hatten. Die Parkbucht war für die Fahrzeuge schon recht schmal.

Very nice.
Pros:

Sorry I don’t remember his name but the guy at the front desk was very helpful as I paid for a king size bed but Booking.com screwed it up buy listing it as a queen double. He did the best he could to fix it but they were sold out for that night.

Cons:

Shower water pressure was low.

Go camping ... it is almost the same.
Pros:

The location and the parking spots for disabled people almost in front of entrance.

Cons:

When you order your stay, you will hope with a hotel part of the Hilton group that your room will be cleaned every day !!! !!!But no .... and at the reception nobody tells you .... but in the bathroom on the mirror, a very small sign says that the room will be cleaned every other day. We stayed for 3 nights ... and never the room was cleaned, and the trash was piling up because you got a mini-oven and so we took some dinner inside our room. I don't tell you how hygienic this can be.

Nice place to stay
Pros:

Very nice hotel and nice staff. Breakfast was honestly really nice too ! They changed up the protein which was cool. Quiet place and close to many of the attractions in Carlsbad such as the Legoland and any beaches. There’s also a farmers market on Thursday's in Oceanside. Toilet seat was a bit worn lol but overall a very clean place !

Good customer service. It was quiet. Breakfast was good as well. Good parking. The only thing is that light comes through the door, and I think they should improve that, but everything else was good.
