This is quite and unusual place but perfect for our needs. It was clean and quiet…a small room but everything you need for a place to sleep and shower…clean and quiet. Owner was great and we were disappointed to miss the opening of her Indian Food food truck. Lots of beautiful cats roaming the property. They kept coming to stay so she said she’s get them fixed and they could stay. Don’t let the unusual photo scare you away. Just a good quiet, clean place to stay.

Compared to the brand-name hotels further down the road, this inn is basic and might seem questionable as you turn into the dirt lot and see the trailers. HOWEVER, the lovely couple who runs this place is so friendly and helpful. Our room was small but fit a queen sized bed, a desk, a wardrobe, refrigerator, microwave, and the sink. And, everything - the room, the bathroom, towels and sheets - was super clean! Breakfast was in the front trailer, where check-in is. There were two types of cereal, coffee, granola bars, cookies, and fruit. In the fridge were milk, apple juice, cranberry juice and yogurt. The owner boiled hot water and brought the kettle out to us. This is a great option for more affordable accommodations in Carlsbad where the hotels tend to be pricey.

First the positives: Clean; thank you. A/c & refrigerator worked well. Other than that, this facility was unbelievable. An inn? $96 for this property? What looked like a storage container with tiny rooms was located in a huge dirt lot. The room was so small that there was no sink in the bathroom! The pictures online gave a totally unrealistic picture. FALSE ADVERTISING: 1) The manager insisted that all the beds in the facility were queen size; they were NOT. Our bed was a full size, much smaller than our queen bed at home. 2) Breakfast stated online to open at 6 a.m; we were told it was available starting at 7:30 a.m. This problem was also stated in an online review. PLEASE UPDATE YOUR ERRONEOUS ONLINE INFORMATION.

This was an unexpected, unique property, which is something we love about road-tripping. Although smaller than most hotel rooms, it provided everything we needed, was clean and comfortable. The best part was the owner’s (Bonnie) hospitality. We enjoyed our conversation with her at breakfast, where she blessed us with homemade burritos (as well as other breakfast items/snacks for the road).
