Great place to stay, with easy access to everything close by. Keep in mind though the freeway is right next to the hotel, as is the Coaster train. Everything was very clean, and the shower was huge. Bed was not the most comfortable but the bedding was great. Free breakfast and free parking were a plus, even though we chose to grab food at multiple places in Carlsbad instead since there is so much to choose from. Staff was very nice too! We would stay here again.
