"It took a long time for the hot water to get hot. The staff was ok. The hotel needs to have room service "

"The hotel staff was very friendly and polite, which I appreciated, but unfortunately the breakfast experience was disappointing. The food was not replenished quickly, so many items stayed empty for a long time, and there was a very limited quantity and selection available overall. The waffle maker was also not working during breakfast service. It seemed like the staff on hand were doing their best, but there wasn’t enough help available to keep up with the guests. With better staffing and improved breakfast management, the experience could be much better."

"Staff is extremely helpful with getting you checked in and navigating the property. Our room was clean and spacious, the kids enjoyed having their own area. My only complaint is that our room was next door to the gym and unfortunately for us the gym is open from 7am-10pm… so we woke up to weights being dropped repeatedly. Being that the rooms are so close to the gym maybe the gym hours should be from 8 or 9am-10pm. We went to the dragons den (MAKE A RESERVATION!!!) for dinner and we enjoyed our food, the breakfast buffet while delicious it was chaotic - for breakfast a reservation does not mean you’ll be checked in at that time since you still have to wait in line to check in and be seated (GET THERE EARLY!!!) and there’s so many people but that’s expected since it’s a family centered hotel. There were so many options for breakfast (cereal, eggs, French toast, pancakes, chilaquiles, biscuits and gravy, fruit, etc) so there’s something for everyone. To get to the Legoland park it only took a hop, skip, and a jump to get there. Definitely would recommend staying at the hotel, it is as one of the easiest stress free trips we’ve had with the kids."

"Breakfast bar was exceptional. The room was nice except noise from the freeway was a bit sleep disruptive"

"perfect."

"Stayed here for one night and overall this is definitely one of the better Motel 6 locations I’ve visited. You can tell this property has to maintain a higher standard because of the Carlsbad area and location near the coast. The room was clean, the king bed was comfortable, and the overall property felt well maintained compared to many other Motel 6 locations. Parking was easy, the location right off I-5 was very convenient, and despite being close to the freeway the noise level was manageable. The pool area was also surprisingly nice, and the lobby/check-in area looked modern and organized. However, my experience with the staff was mixed. The employee who checked me in was not very welcoming and barely acknowledged me. A simple greeting and a friendlier attitude would have made a much better first impression. The bigger issue happened later at the pool area. I was sitting by the pool in the evening talking on the phone, and apparently someone locked the pool gate after 8 PM without checking if any guests were still inside. I ended up locked inside the pool area and had to climb over the fence to get out. Basic hospitality would be politely informing guests that the pool is closing instead of silently locking the gate while someone is still there. Overall, the property itself is above average for the brand, but the customer service experience could definitely be improved."

"There were roaches in the room and the bathroom floor was so dirty doesn’t look like it’s been washed ever. I had to go purchase sandals just to shower. I had to take my belongings everyday because I was afraid of getting roaches. The smell of roaches was pretty strong around one room specifically. I won’t be staying here again."

"It was a great stay. Everything - both in the room as well as out in the lobby and hallways - was well maintained, and the staff were very friendly, courteous, and helpful. The breakfast was a typical continental breakfast but the food was fresh and tasty. Thank you for a great stay!"

"I loved the villas. They were very spacious and had all of the important amenities for my stay - microwave, stove with oven, coffee maker and full sized refrigerator. It even had kitchen items like pots & pans, dinnerware and tableware. The bathroom and bedroom was spacious and the living room was nice and quaint. I had a patio. My villa was downstairs. I wish there was an elevator because my luggage was heavy. I didn’t visit the store/market. I did visit Canyon Grille. The food was good but service was a little slow. My waitress and the greeter were super nice but it seemed like they were understaffed. I liked the fitness facility. I don’t use the pool. The outdoor seating areas were nice. I visited their farmer’s market and it was excellent. My overall stay was magnificent."
