Have stayed here about three times. Friendly staff, easy check-in, safe area, and central location. No frills but clean and great location. Right across the street from the outlets and the flower fields. A lot of choices around for eating, from fast food to seafood. We enjoy the Windmill food court which is on the same property.... You can get some drinks and everything we've tried has been pretty good, a little pricey but nice atmosphere and good quality food. Quick drive to the ocean.

We loved the location of this hotel to see the Flower Fields in Carlsbad. We had a very nice time at the pool which is heated. The front desk staff were very nice. Everything was great except the bathroom of our room had fecal splatters on the wall that we had to clean up.

It was walking distance to the flower fields. What i didn’t like was the uncomfortable beds, half the television channels had no volume, and my door was pushed open early in the morning. I’m assuming that was housekeeping, even though I had the do not disturb tag on the door.

The place is really beat up and run down, looks like they are planning a renovation as we speak but for now I would not stay there again unless thing where fixed up. as well they offer a wedding service which makes for some noise when the reception is over and the guest head for there rooms.

I liked the location of the property. However, the Jacuzzi and the pool were a bit dirty/moldy and there were no towels in the pool area. 8.5/10 for me.
