This is a great place to stay. Across the street from the beach and steps away from Carlsbad Village. The rooms are huge with a nice living area, a dressing area, a big master bedroom and a nicely appointed bathroom. The staff is wonderful. They even let you park your car there for two hours after checkout so you can do some last minute shopping! Can't wait to go back.
