Staff was very nice but the rooms were just gross. So bad I didn’t want to walk barefoot on the carpet. Beds not “hotel” neat and cockroach in the bathroom. Very limited amenities. I’ll be avoiding Wyndham properties, I didn’t realize they’re that bad. At least this one was. There are so many hotels in Carlsbad, spend a few more bucks if you want clean.

This place had good reviews. It is a motel. It is a motor hotel where you park right outside of your door. That is not what I was expecting. There were many workplace trucks from nearby oil rigs. The hotel is rundown and old And I was charged a five star hotel and it is barely a one or two star. The beds were very uncomfortable and for sure not worth the $150 that I paid. They did have a hot breakfast included, which was average.

Big Rooms & Great Breakfast, But Hot Water Issue

We had a great stay overall! The rooms were very spacious and clean, making for a comfortable experience. The continental breakfast was delicious, with a nice variety of options. The only downside was the lack of hot water at night—not even lukewarm. Thankfully, there was hot water in the morning, but the issue persisted the next evening despite notifying the front desk. Aside from that, the stay was very enjoyable, and the hotel provided a welcoming atmosphere. With a fix to the hot water situation, this would be a perfect place to stay!

This is really bad hotel. AVOID. The first room they put me in reeked of cigarette smoke and the WiFi was completely useless. I asked to move to a room closer to the lobby which fixed the internet problem, but now the room smelled lightly of mildew. ALSO: I turned on the TV and found that it didn’t work at all. The fridge in the room froze everything I put in it. The pool is also completely disgusting - I would never swim in it. (It was 80 in Feb) The only good thing was the front desk person. He was cool and nice.

Sweet Suite

We stayed in one of the suites. The wet bar area included a refrigerator, microwave, and a separate bar height table. Great for having snacks and drinks! There was also a TV watching area, and a separate bedroom with a huge closet. Definitely worth it to go with the suite!
