Posizione ottima al centro di Carlsbad
Pros:

La camera era bella ma non eccezionale, la nostra nello specifico non disponeva di balcone, però dotata di frigo, microonde e macchina per caffè/the. Nel complesso la struttura è bella, in una posizione strategica fronte mare al centro di Carlsbad. Buona la colazione a buffet inclusa nel prezzo della camera con una bellissima vista sull’oceano.

Cons:

Piscina piccola

I have taken a room there several times but I will look for others. I did not like that you cannot sit in the evening. A
Pros:

I have taken a room there several times but I will look for others. I did not like that you cannot sit in the evening. And the children were forbidden to go, I really did not like it this time the attitude is very bad

Cons:

The air conditioner doesn't work well. They charge for parking but there is no parking space. I have to look for a place to park my car. We were sitting with friends in the yard at 10 o'clock and they kicked us out. But on other days the others sat and no one kicked them out.

Wonderful visit, great staff, above and beyond.
Pros:

Close to town center but far enough that it’s quiet at night even on weekends. Warm pool with 3ft shallow end great for littles. Lovely fire pits, great deck views. Easy access to state beach.
