“What stands out is the remarkably convenient access to the beach and the unexpectedly lush, tropical gardens-a true surprise. The fully-equipped kitchens in every room add a welcome touch for families, and the grab-and-go breakfast is a thoughtful way to start the day before heading out to explore Carlsbad. It's a solid choice with more going for it than you might expect.”
