Actually, the “kitchenettes” — that available in some of the rooms — could be described as a limited “food prep” area, with nothing other than a counter, a “mini-microwave oven,” a smaller cubic sized “mini-refrig/freezer. For cleanup, your bathroom sink will have to do “double duty,” of handling your assorted cookware, yet also your personal ablutions! Bottomline, I’d suggest an “extended stay” property if, you’re even slightly serious about “exercising your inner-Chef!

2.0 / 10.0

Tv remote was disgustingly cruddy and broke as was the TV. No electricity in the vanity area and bathroom therefore no hairdryer and no lighting in either the toilet/shower or sink. Bed covers were not adequately cleaned and the occupants next door had a dog that barked incessantly - whose owners bounced a ball against the wall most of the night for the dog’s entertainment. I recommend earplugs and a flashlight and maybe some pepper spray.

The best thing about this motel is that it is located just several blocks from Carlsbad village, has ample parking, and is a low cost alternative. This is a motel that has good size rooms, nice tv, microwave, table and refrigerator. Condition is a bit worn but acceptable for the price paid. The Carlsbad train station is very close so there is noise from passing trains sometimes loud at night.

4.0 / 10.0

Room was clean and looked just like the pictures. Shower took a while to heat up but once it did, was able to remain hot. Decent water pressure. Towels were a bit scratchy and thin but are adequate. TV is not a smart TV and the bed is old box spring style but I suppose that's to be expected for room rate. Heater was a bit loud but worked fine (didnt use AC). Fridge and microwave also worked fine. Parking lot can get full so keep that in mind depending when you arrive. I was able to find street parking though. . All in all, a decent stay for the price

The Proprietors and Staff are — without a doubt — incredibly individuals whose priority is to ensure their guests have the best possible experience while visiting. A suggestion, if and when you have the opportunity to become guests at the Scandia Motel, take the time to actually introduce yourselves to the Proprietors, and you’ll not regret it!

Upon arrival I could tell this was not going to be the Ritz Carlton but I thought I’d still give it a try. When I checked in I was handed a filthy damaged and taped remote for the tv was told my room was at the street. I opened the door and saw that it looked nothing like the bright clean room on the site. It was dingy and gross. The bed had hair on it and looked nasty. The sofa was stained like someone peed on it. The wall between the beds was damaged and had been repaired and not repainted the gross orange brown of the room. I told the clerk I was not staying. She said she could not refund my payment but offered me a different room which also was not something I wanted to sleep in. I was disappointed because it is in a prime location. I understand that this wasn’t a 5 star resort but I do believe at minimum the room should be clean and the linens should be as well. I tried to get a refund from the site and it was refused by the manager. I ended up having to pay for a second hotel for my stay. Would not recommend.

The room was clean,really tiny ,But it was a very quiet place if that's what your looking for ..Then that's for you. I was wanted to rent a room, So I could sit in a tub and soak. But just like my luck no bath tub. And I also thought it was in San Diego . When I rented it. and I payed for it right off the bat with out reading . There conditions So I had to drive that far just to take a bath .And when I got there ,Guess What??? No bathrooms in the whole place. So I drove a hour to do that and was disappointed when I got there. But it was a good place for the price. What stood out was how peaceful it to was

Got the queen bed room- price and location good other than that HORRIBLE! So tiny, old not clean. You get two thin stain towels, one hand towel and one washcloth. Stains on sheets pillow case. Toilet runs all night, not sound proof, you can hear everything. They are doing a new roof, no mention of that. Asked front desk for towels and was told maybe to now when cleaning comes in. I would not and do not recommend.
