excellent location across the street from the beach and ocean. Pool area very nice. Old school perks like a newspaper at your door every morning. Wish we could have stayed longer to enjoy more of the amenities.

Beachside family friendly hotel
Great location to stay at for a trip to legoland. Short drive to legoland and a super short walk across the street to get to the beach. The property also has beach supplies (chairs, umbrella, toys) available to use at the beach. Lots of restaurants and shopping nearby also. Outer rooms on the front side of the hotel have a balcony to relax and watch the sunset over the ocean.

Great "southern" SoCal location
Great location. Right on beach (across the street) and very walkable to all of Carlsbad. Driveable to many "beach towns" and San Diego (35 minutes). Check out the solarium!

Pleasant
Everything was really good. Its worth the extra charge for the ocean view. Only disappointment was the bathroom floor. It actually looked dirty but with a closer view it was apparently just a old floor that does not look good. Way-Out dated.
