This hotel is below average for a holiday inn. The area is very shady at night and makes you feel uncomfortable. The appearance of the hotel has no appeal and looks like a run down motel. The parking is very limited. If you decide to stay here avoid room 103 and the room across. These rooms are literally located inside... More

The rooms are huge another bed could be easily worked in, thought this may be good for a family. The front desk - very friendly and helpful. Breakfast is the usual hot and generous selections of food groups. The beds are comfortable and being on a freeway is non existent, because it is quiet. More

Stayed here for the weekend since we had a family reunion in Doheny and that area is so expensive! This fit the rate we wanted to pay, free parking, free breakfast and easy to get around. Only thing was we hit major traffic both ways but that has nothing to do with this hotel, just sayin. Room very spacious (King),... More

My boyfriend and I stayed here one night while we were visiting family in Oceanside. We checked in fairly late (after 10 p.m.) so there was only one staff member on duty who happened to be on a phone call so we had to wait about 10 minutes to get checked in. However, we were greeted warmly and received a... More

We stayed here a few days before the 4th of July 2011 on a trip to visit my son in the Marines. I read the reviews beforehand and was a little nervous. But all-in-all our stay was pretty good. The room did smell a little musty, but we weren't in the room much. Once you were in there and was... More

Wifi is super slow! So if you need to access your computer...you are out of luck! Noisy location, next to freeway, did not feel safe, room smells like mouldy wetness, T.V was old school, frig barely works. Honestly, Don't stay here...! Extended stay off Carlsbad Village is 10 x's better and cost is cheaper!! More

The people were great but the place is kind of old. My room had a slight moldy smell to it. When I turned on the AC it really had a moldy smell to it. I stayed for 4 days and then I moved to another holiday inn express. I felt that if I complained I'd probably would just get another... More

The lower level room we stayed in was spacious and then some. The room had a desk and a large area for a table for eating --which was good since the breakfast room was very full in the morning and we chose to eat in our room. We noticed that the upper floor rooms had balconies, but that took away... More

This is a good value for the money. I had a double queen room with a micro/fridge combo. The room was larger than many "suite" based rooms. There is some road noise, The manual climate control is noisy and difficult to moderate temperature. The breakfast was OK. The front desk personnel were nice. Beds were OK, lumpy pillows. This appears... More
