This property is a gem. It is very nice, safe, and quiet at night. We slept wth our windows open and the temperature was perfect. The only caveat is it is not far from the train track (which is true of the sll of the beach towns in this part of CA), so if you leave your windows open, you will hear the trains. This however is also a feature due to it is easily walkable from the coastal express train. Restaurants, 7 eleven, and the beach are all within a 2-5 minute walk. I give it 5 stars.

In Expedia, it was advertised as a Bed & Breakfast. There is no breakfast and the price of staying there (vs. the poor conditions) is way too high. Avoid going on the roof to the lounging area- rusted out chairs at the small table are unsafe and rusted out main table is unsanitary. Peeling paint in the bathroom was gross. The best experience is the proximity to the beach. It must have been an amazing place at one time, now, it has been left without necessary repairs & updates which an older place needs to be welcoming.

Upon arrival, we talked to the gentleman who was cleaning the rooms and ours was ready to go so he gave us a key and let us move in even though it was 11 o’clock in the morning. They have a stack of beach chairs and beach towels for use so We made our way down to the beautiful beach and enjoyed our afternoon.

Very quaint and welcoming, yet clean and neat. Bed was very comfortable, and check in and out was. Breeze. Location was perfect, just a short walk to the beach, many shops, restaurants and coffee shops. There was even a nightstand size fan we were able to use to help me sleep, I had forgotten my own fan and was so thankful they had one in thr closet in the room.

Nice room, delightful back yard with portable fire pit for burning wood, beautiful plants including a lemon tree, covered table and seating…a perfect place to have your morning coffee, which is provided. Best of all, it’s less than a 10 minute walk to the beach and a walkable distance from Carlsbad village shops, restaurants, and bars. Very convenient location!
