This was a wonderful place to stay for an overnight in Carlsbad. Very close to everything we wanted to do, so we could just walk everywhere. We had an ocean-view condo on the 3rd floor and the view was amazing. The front desk staff was very nice and very accommodating when we called to get a late check-out. The condos we large,very clean, had a huge bathroom and a nice kitchen with lots of storage space. Wish the bedroom would have been on the side close to the ocean, but it's right where the entrance is off the pool. We were hoping to be able to fall asleep to the waves. The only thing we didn't care for was the noise that comes from the cars and cafe bikes that seem to race up and down the main road between the hotel and the ocean. During the day it was impossible to feel relaxed out on the patio, or even have a conversation while sitting enjoying the view. We realize this is not the hotels fault at all, just the location and motorists not obeying speed limits. If you are looking for something super close to the beach and don't need the view, the rooms on the other side of the pool that don't face the ocean are much quieter.
