Top Craftsmanship Museum Hotel Reviews

Days Inn by Wyndham San Marcos

8/10 Good

"AC was not on when we entered room. We had notified the hotel we would be arriving late. Room should have been cooled down prior to checking in. Extreme heat in area and room was unbearable. Limited amenities in room. NO cups! Room was clean and the hot water supply to shower was the best I have ever had traveling."

Extended Stay America Premier Suites - San Diego - San Marcos

10/10 Excellent

"Great place and very helpful staff."

Hyatt Place San Diego/Vista-Carlsbad

10/10 Excellent

"Staff were helpful and friendly, they were also very welcoming of our dog too. Our first stay at a pet-friendly hotel was a success."

Hampton Inn Carlsbad-North San Diego County

10/10 Excellent

"Delightful!"

Homewood Suites by Hilton Carlsbad-North San Diego County

10/10 Excellent

"Great stay"

Courtyard by Marriott San Diego Carlsbad

8/10 Good

"Staff is wonderful, bed (king) comfy, view of the courtyard pretty. I don’t usually stay in a Marriott so a couple things caught me off guard. 1) paying to park in their lot, and 2) having a Starbucks kiosk instead of a breakfast bar. Room was comparably priced, and actually slightly less than Hampton Inn (Sunday night). Probably won’t stay again though."

Holiday Inn Carlsbad by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Very clean room and location as well. Amenities are great outdoor activities to keep busy."

Residence Inn by Marriott Carlsbad

8/10 Good

"Breakfast was substantial for a hotel. Great! Pool was not clean with sand from beach toys and items having been rinsed off in pool. Pool water was cloudy."

Staybridge Suites Carlsbad by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Room is clean. And AC was nice and cold. Great size room for the value. Great location close to food spots and shopping center."
