The room was extremely cozy and well-kept. The hospitality was excellent, offering little touches like complimentary cookies in the room, and an $18 breakfast voucher to the cafe next door. The manager was very communicative and helpful. Only issue I experienced was the WiFi kept dropping, but the mobile network was fine so this was not a major inconvenience.

This was a delightful stay. All the comforts of an AB&B without the stupid fees. The room was unique, comfortable, and well appointed. Comfy bed, good pillows, hot shower, good water pressure, very useful kitchen, very clean. The patio/garden space outside was very pleasant and the cats were affectionate and added a level of homey comfort. I will stay here again and recommend you do as well.

The room was charmingly decorated, thoughtful goodies were available, check in and out was a breeze, and Jenn made two (inteoverted) road weary travelers feel warmly welcomed with a nice cool environment. The whole property is lovely and well maintained. We definitely will be back on our next trip to Carlsbad!

Charming

Charming “cottage” with great cookies and cold waters waiting. Parking is out front, bed and pillows very soft, and a number to call for the code to enter. The clean shower was not too too tiny and the signage showed to flip a light switch, which also dehumidifies it. They left us a great coupon for breakfast at a nearby bakery eatery.

Very cute, clean, comfortable, and well maintained. Easy check in and out. Good location too. The issue I had was that the internet was not strong enough to hold a video call which was for work. Kept kicking me off Zoom. Good reliable internet, especially for this level of accommodation seems basic nowadays. Also I don’t recommend staying the basement room because the upstairs footsteps are loud and annoying.
