As basic, low budget as you can get while still rating in the acceptable description.
This hotel is quite old and it appears that way. It's almost a shame they have only done the bare minimum for functional upkeep.
Everything about it reeks "as cheap as we can be".
Don't get me wrong....I stay here without stress on a regular.... Because it's affordable most days but if I had my own car I would drive up to Carlsbad and stay at the Motel 6 "beaches" it's on average $20 cheaper and it's honestly a 2 star rating jump up in appearance, amenities...free wifi, daily coffee and tea, grocery store with in 2 blocks and less than a 1/2 miles to the sandy beach shore.....

Could be better
We were there for two nights. I had received text messages before check-in that same day, stating the pool was open until 10:00. There was a microwave in the vending machine room. And 24-hour security. But the pool was not heated and the hot tub was very very dirty. The vending machine microwave was broken and not working. We found a cockroach greeting Us in the bathroom. We reserved a room for four people, but we were given enough towels for two maybe three. There was rust in the shower. And there was only one lock on the door. Oh yes and because we were right near the train station, you can hear the train bowling is horn as it went by frequently. The beds were comfortable. And the mini refrigerator was clean. And when I called the office for supplies, they were very accommodating.

do yourself a favor and book somewhere else
Hey, are you the location was convenient and close to the old town transit center, but the sheets were not clean and the shower in our room did not work. Probably wouldn’t stay here again, but it was reasonably priced.
