My son and I stayed here on our trip to Legoland, and it was completely worth it. It was very easy to find and they had free and convenient parking. The hotel room was very nice and spacious and they served a complimentary full breakfast. They also had free cookies and milk in the evenings. The staff was also very kind and helpful. The drive to Legoland was so easy and convenient. I would definitely stay here again!

Our favorite hotel in the Carlsbad / San Diego area. Pet friendly, clean rooms, good free breakfast and milk and cookies, in the evening. Plus any beach stuff you need available for your use. Highly recommend the West Inn to everyone coming to the area.

We booked it last minute because our hotel in San Diego wasn’t going to have power during the night. We were very happy with the accommodations. 2 King size beds! You never find that and I was traveling with my husband and 2 grown kids! They also serve cookies and milk at 8pm every night! Free parking and free breakfast! Great deal!

Convenient location. Friendly and helpful staff. Room was spacious and clean. General ambiance was inviting. A/C and water pressure in rooms was great. My only negative would be- you are in very close proximity to train tracks- So there is a train rumble and horn throughout day and evening

Upon arrival, we were informed the jacuzzi was not working. Front desk worker was unpleasant. Second front desk worker was unfriendly. This was not what I was excepting from this place. The shower next to the pool was broken as well. The free breakfast was good, and the kitchen staff were nice and helpful. I would not recommend staying here again. The price did not match the experience.
