Close to all the tourist attractions in Carlsbad village, as well as Carlsbad beach. The room was in decent shape for the price. There are definitely worse in north county. The motel is right next to the train track, so there is train noise. Overall though I enjoyed walking around Carlsbad from this location

Great little motel near everything. Property is a little older, but the location is walking distance to many activities and restaurants. Even though they do not offer breakfast, it would be nice to have a coffee maker in the rooms. The family that owns the property are very nice and accommodating to requests.

Basic motel within 5 min walk to closest beach entrance , rooms got some updates and ok overall. Area feels better than where similarly priced motels near I-5 are , it, still few homeless can be seen around. With right price it can be a good deal if you don’t mind infrequent cleaning service.
