Guest Reviews

• Daisy (1/5): - The room seemed fine at first, but when I went to go to sleep and lifted the blankets, there was a strong urine smell coming from the bed. After checking the mattress, I found multiple stains and the mattress looked dirty and unsanitary. I felt extremely grossed out and left the room right away. A clean and sanitary bed should be the bare minimum for any motel. Very disappointed with the cleanliness and condition of the room. I would not stay here again.
• Anthony (10/5): -
• Jack (1/5): Never happened - Nothing They canceled my reservation when I got there because I wanted a TV that worked. They took my money. They said they returned it to Booking.com and I needed to contact Booking.com to get my money back because I’ve never got any money back from them. How do I get my money back from Booking.com?
• Sean (1/5): It might be the cheapest motel in the area but still wouldn’t stay there again. - Only thing I liked about this motel was the location. It was near the main part of the city (Carlsbad). Bed had stains and burn holes in blankets. There was hair in the shower. The shampoo bottle was a single use bottle but it was already used and half full. No body wash available. Stains on bathroom towels. Toilet paper wasn’t new. It was half gone. AC unit did not work properly. I had to set it at 63 degrees just for it to cool the room down to 70 degrees. TV remote was broken. Walls were dirty and stained. Mini fridge didn’t not shut. Had to ask front desk for a different fridge. No security on site. The person staying next to my room was up til 4am being really loud for hours out in front of his room and no one contacted him about being loud outside til 4am. I couldn’t sleep due to this. I will never stay here again!!!!
• Travis (5/5): For the price I booked it for, it was worth it. Better than sleeping in the car. - It had a bed, fridge, AC, toilet/shower. Basic needs which is all I wanted for the night. The bed was unappealing and dirty, no fitted sheet and mattress was disgusting, towels were all dirty or stained, shower was a little gross with rusty colored water spots in the shower.
• Lisa (8/5): -
• David (7/5): - Excellent location short walk to the beach. Like the "Motel" parking right outside your door. We would recommend this place to friends. We'll concentrate on the positive.
• Christianson (7/5): -

• Lynne (8/5): -
• Santo (10/5): - great place near beach . remodeled rooms mine was very large . staff are very nice people , patient and accomadating
• Chandler (1/5): The owner and their kids are running around the property - The location is the only good thing about this property. The staff is incredibly rude and unprofessional. They do not have an ounce of hospitality.
• Nunez (4/5): - I love the location The beds were old and there were roaches in the room .parking out of control

• Evgenii (2/5): Убогий сервис. И даже за такой низкий прайс можно найти альтернативу-что я и севетую сделать! - Неплохое местоположение. Но рядом ходят поезда!! В номере не было одеяла. Отсутствовал интернет, я написал-мне не ответили. Я позвонил-но сославшись на какие то проблемы с компьютером мне так и не назвали полностью пароль от вай фай и бросили трубку телефона прервав разговор
• Elsa (5/5): - Good location, great value for parking included Uncomfortable bed and I not very clean
• Cheryl (1/5): Horrible because of the owner and lack of maintenence to this facility - Nothing The owner is very rude and cancelled our stay after we checked in because the bathroom floor was soaking wet. He said it was because the shower leaks and the shower curtain needs to stay closed. He didnt like that i questioned this and told me to go get a full refund and fi d somewhere else to stay. Also, there was someone's hat stuck in the couch cushion. There was a dirty towel left in the bathroom also. Owner threw towel and hat on ground outside on ground.
• Arteaga (5/5): -
• Henry (7/5): Pleasant and affordable. Basic and no frills, but a good choice if you just need a place to lay your head for a short st - Friendly staff, quaint and clean room, good pricing Located next to a fairly busy road and an active train line
• Paulo (7/5): Perfect Location - Since I go every year to Carlsbad 5k run, it’s the perfect location for this event There were dark stains on the towels, there was a huge burn mark on the comforter, and the walls were very thin; at night I could hear the person in the other room watching TV.
• Todd (10/5): Affordable and close to beach - Close to beach, affordable, free parking, friendly staff. Nothing.
• Aarion (1/5): -
• Bennie (10/5): -
• Damian (5/5): The location was perfect, we didnt spend much time in the room, cost was NOT worth what you get. - the location was absolutely perfect! A perfect walking distance from everything. Great location, tucked away. the room was gross. The floors were filthy. The bathroom was kind of dirty. The doors were difficult to use. I didnt like the 'attitude' given about extra cars/visitors. Or the threat of being charged for a remote being held together by tape at check in. The pillows also smelled funky to.
• Ricky (8/5): -
• Yevhen (10/5): -
• Maureen (1/5): Horrible!!! - Nothing. First of all I was welcomed to the room with 2 roaches in the bed! The room had a dump smell that was in the air. Front desk guy very rude to customers. They come and knock on your door before check out time! Front desk followed by housekeeping. Run down place with kots of sketchy people around.

• Per (7/5): Enkelt och billigt motel som passar bra för övernattningar. - Enkelt och billigt motell som passar bra för övernattningar. Kändes klassiskt amerikanskt. Bra dusch och toa. Rätt mycket buller från trafik och järnväg, men inte så mycket på nätterna.
• Katarzyna (8/5): - Room was clean and staff friendly. Only thing is they don't have at least a kettle or coffee maker in the room. I like to make my tea and coffee and do not use microwaves. Also, kind of weird, they have a cooler displayed in the lobby with waters and some other beverages and they are not for the guests. I didn't like that Booking.com added an additional charge to the agreed upon rate I initial found the room for.. after I submitted the payment the charge was over $20 more than what I initially signed up for... The lobby told me this is something they can not resolve and booking.com can only refund me.
• Navie (2/5): - Location! Walking distance to beach and downtown Carlsbad. Cleanliness, atmosphere of room, remote did not work for TV, beds were terrible. The sheets smelled like mildew.
• David (7/5): - It was all good. The room was fine, everything worked. No problems with anyone. Given the price, it was very good. Nothing
• Shawn (10/5): Hope 2 get back soon. Great location. - Well taken care of by Nancy and her husband and they are truly good people. Safe, clean and a great value. Maybe not the fanciest hotel, but also maybe my favorite and I travel for work all the time. Nothing

• Mike (1/5): COCKROACHES !!! @ SCANDIA in CARLSBAD - Nothing LIKE it looks ok on the outside . The inside is very dirty. Definitely a drug motel. Do not dare let them place you anywhere in the back. We had to move twice. COCKROACHS !!!!!!! EVERYWHERE...... THEY COME OUT AT NIGHT !!!! YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED.. I SHOULD HAVE TAKEN PICTURES. MY BAD COCKROACHES !!!

• Follin (10/5): -
• Phil (7/5): Perfect for the price. - The value was perfect for what we needed for the night. The rooms are a bit cold with no heater. And thin blankets. My only complaint.
• Nataliya (10/5): - Pleasant
• Corey (7/5): -
• Kenneth (4/5): It was OK for price - Excellent location, price No heater first night. New heater the next day.
• Cristina (4/5): -
• Ermelinda (1/5): - The room was very dirty and a railroad station is next to it and is blowing a horn. I paid for 2 day and only stayed for one day. Nancy at the front desk said I can get my money back for the day I did not stay. That I need to contact booking.com and they would 📞 her and she will approve the return of my money. I was informed per booking.com that my request was not approved by Scandia. Very disappointed and will not recommend the hotel or using booking.com to anyone.
• Mary (10/5): Fun -
• Nicole (1/5): - It was in a quiet location and near the downtown city life. The door was jammed, hard to get into the room. The room wasn’t clean, no fitted sheet on bed. Only brought clean towels, didn’t make the bed or clean the room. I had to walk around with my shoes on because the floor was dirty.
• Jenae (5/5): Ok motel in a nice neighborhood and solid location - Close to the beach, staff was nice and helpful, safe neighborhood. The rooms weren’t super clean. The bed and bed frame was awful. It sounded super broken/loud. There were aunts in the bathroom, and dust/dirt in various areas of the floor & trim
• Margaret (9/5): Great location and spacious room - Location Ants
• George (3/5): - The TV did not work the entire time we were there. The room was not as clean as it has been in previous years.
• Morgan (10/5): This hotel could be really nice with a little tlc from owners. It’s a good value considering hotels in the area are $$ - Continently located to everything. We were in room #123 it was spacious and had a small kitchen area. Beds were comfortable and had a pull out couch for extra guest. We were only in the room to shower and sleep so it did its purpose. Property is old and outdated and needs a little tlc.
• Mary (7/5): - Location The train
• Moses (9/5): -
• Joe (7/5): It was ok...for budget minded... - No breakfast or coffee Small room...stayed 4 days....never changed sheets or cleaned room....only trash emptied and got fresh towels
• Jose (1/5): Rude - Rude Rude
• Eric (1/5): - They have bugs, cheapest in Carlsbad but you get what you pay for
• Justin (1/5): Great price and location, been staying here 10+ years, quality is getting much worse. - Location and price Not clean, cash deposit, shower did not drain, A/C blew warm air, holes in wall from repairs, human feces and blood on wall in bathroom.
• Gerardo (10/5): -
• Simeon (7/5): Satisfied with my stay for the price. - Loved the location. Right next to the beach and downtown Carlsbad. Great price as well. It was a little dirty and they started doing maintenance pretty early in the morning outside of our windows.
