This was my second stay at Carlsbad Inn. The staff is always friendly and welcoming. The room was clean and the sheets and towels were too. There was plenty of parking and the area has plenty lighting. They have ice machines for customers and trash cans throughout the property.

The air conditioner wasn’t on when I arrived so of course it took a while for it to cool off. The motel room was clean but the mattress was probably the worst I’ve ever experienced; luckily I was able to sleep five hours and get back on the road. This was my first work trip to Carlsbad. If there is a next time, I’ll definitely stay somewhere else.

Linens were unacceptable. Tolerated crowd in and around the property made for uncomfortable and wary circumstances. Did not believe property was amenable to a good nights rest and safekeeping of property. Employee’s were polite and made offers to switch rooms, but even the cleanest room wasn’t going to make us feel safe for ourselves or property, and then stuck to their guns on the fine print. Didn’t stay the night, and we’re not getting a refund. C’est la vie…

Although all properties are expensive in this area, this one was a great value for the price, especially because of the pool and the air conditioner in the room. Both of those were great!

Good times at the Carlsbad Inn

The hotel was great, pool was well maintained and clean, we were on motorcycles and owners offered us towels (old ones of course) so we could shine them up after a long ride. I noticed an array of workers (oil field related) but every one was respectful and personable (I believe the hotel staff reflected that) and quiet hours were respected. I would not hesitate to bring wife and kids there, a very safe environment.
