    Great hotel. Nice clean big rooms. Loved the location and closeness to the outlet. And the food hall next door was great to.

    Great pretty hotel, just opposite the Carlsbad outlets, near the Windmill food court where we got our water bottles filled up and next to a Chevron station. A shuttle takes you to Legoland too which is very convenient.

    This place doesn't have breakfast. That's too bad. But luckily, there is a Starbuck nearby. However, I like to have as international breakfast.
