I had an Airbnb booked and the day before I was supposed to arrive they canceled on me because of flood damage. This was the day before Easter Sunday and needed to be in Encinitas. I called around and either everything was sold out or they were Price gouging. I came across the Lucadia Beach Inn and right away the gentleman on the phone was extremely nice. Ive passed this hotel a few times while I lived in Carlsbad and from the outside it looked very clean. I told the gentleman that I do have a small dog and he said we charge a pet fee which is understandable. When we got there we were greeted politely and the manager said that my dog cannot be left unattended. I completely understood their policy. The room is very clean but you are right on the highway so you do hear a lot of the noise from the cars, and people walking by. The train tracks are right there as well. We spent two nights there and I will definitely stay there again. Highly recommend it. Next time though I will ask for a room away from the street. Thank you for an excellent stay!

I cannot tell you how Barbara, one of the managers here was incredibly helpful and went above and beyond in customer service. When I got to the airport, I had realized that I LOST my wedding ring. I looked everywhere for it, I had called the hotel and Barbara answered, knew who I was when just checking out 20 minutes before and runs in and finds the ring and says. ”The ring is in my hand, I am keeping it in a safe deposit box until you know how to get it back to Dallas” - I was so relieved and she got the ring, and took it to FedEx to have it sent back and she was in communication with me until the ring was back in my possession. Cannot say enough good things about. her, truly in for her customers and an absolute life saver! Not sure if anyone reads these... but she deserves a raise. We had a great experience and absolutely will be coming back. I will be there every quarter or so. Thank you Barbara!

Clean rooms with an excellent location for Legoland. Comfortable beds and good room setup for a family. Breakfast had a good selection - it was very busy most mornings and the Home2 Suites team had a hard time keeping up, but they were trying their best and remained friendly and helpful.

Rooms were nice and clean and we had a beautiful view of the lake. The beds are comfortable however my sleep was disrupted due to noisy pipes that we could hear whenever other rooms used their showers or sinks. Staff was friendly, prompt and helpful. The restaurant Amalfi was delicious and I also appreciated the complimentary drinks you get at check in and s’mores kit that is provided in your room.

GGuest UserReally good hotel! Not in the city; it's out away from San Diego. It's about 1/2 hour to 45 min to drive to parts of San Diego. There is parking at the hotel, but they charge for parking???? The only way to get to this hotel (for most) is by driving a car and parking it there. They seem to be taking advantage of customers to charge for the parking. Hotel was clean and had breakfast. Safe location.

GGuest UserTired…tired…tired… the hotel is really tired. It is a shame, because it has great character. A lot of your experience will depend on the room you are assigned. We were first given the “Lattice” room. 104. It is dark, feels closed in and the tub did not drain well. The bathroom smelled of sewer. The gentleman who checked us in on our arrival date was slow and cranky. The following day we asked to move to a different room. The staff that day (especially Andrew) was very nice and for an extra 30.00 they moved us to the Country French room. 106. What a difference! Although the bathroom still had a slight sewer smell, the room had better light and even a little bit of an ocean view. It is unfortunate that whoever owns the hotel is not maintaining it or keeping it up to date. The rates are reasonable for the location but, as they say, “you get what you pay for.” I read in other reviews that the hotel was being renovated, but I saw no signs of it. Old wallpaper, old carpet, old fixtures, old… just old. Upstairs deck is nice for sunset though. And having parking was a real benefit! If I need a cheaper place to stay near the ocean I would go back, but I would be very specific about which room I reserved. Lots of stairs to negotiate for the upper level rooms, just FYI.
