Fairfield Inn & Suites Carlsbad

Had a great stay, room was clean, breakfast was fantastic. I felt right at home, I usually only stay at Marriott hotels and this one was great! The front desk was extremely helpful with tips on food and how to get to the caverns!

I ended up spending three weeks in this hotel along with seven other coworkers. There were a few good things about it. The breakfast got a good grade B. The building hasn’t been very well maintained. Several of us had the exact same issue with the air conditioners in our rooms. They leaked condensation on the carpet and 1/2 to 1/2 of the floor was always soaked. You really didn’t want to walk around the room in bare feet or socks. Sometimes, you’d actually have the carpet make squishing sounds as you walked on it.

No pillows We broke down in Carlsbad, so this is why we had to spend the night. We had four (4) adults and two (2) children in our party. The kiddos were going to sleep on the pull out couch. ISSUES: 1) There were no pillows available for the pull out couch and the front desk was not helpful at all…I even requested that they get a couple of pillows form an empty room and was told she could not do that. There was no manager on duty, nor able to be reached by phone. We did call corporate. We ended up getting a couple of pillows from another hotel guest that heard our situation and graciously let us use their extras. 2) When we opened the pull out…the mattress was terrible and unable to be slept on, so we had to walk next door and buy an air mattress from Walmart. 3) The floor lamp was very rickety and barely standing up. 4) One of the queen size beds squeaked terrible with any movement. 5) The shampoo & Conditioner containers were broken off the wall and empty. 6) All of the milk out for breakfast was expired.

Review This hotel had backups in the sinks the bathtub along with stain-ridden beds and sheets was a complete nightmare

Its an oil town. Lots of workers, busy, hotel was short staffed. Turned me down originally for hotel so i went outside and booked through *******. Went back and clerk said she was told to turn away walkins. Thank you *******

It was close to the train tracks and major main road through town so was noisy. Staff nice and friendly. Nice breakfast options as well.
