Pet-friendly and an unbeatable location
Pros:

Could not ask for a better location in Carlsbad, with easy access to nearby parks, lots of food options, and almost walking distance from LEGOLand. Easy access from the highway. Very pet friendly. Staff were great.

Cons:

The other guests were a bit sketchy - no confrontations, but we were a bit worried for the stuff in our room. This is the kind of place where people seem to take up long-term residence. The grounds were not clean. The floor in the room was not clean.
