My dog was visiting the California Veterinary Specialists just up the street so we had to have a place to stay between her daily treatments. This was perfect! It is only .7miles from the hospital which made for a nice walk there and back each day. The staff could not have been nicer to me and my dog. They have... More

We stayed at this hotel for a quick weekend getaway. The new renovated rooms are great and clean! The pool was warm and a great place for the kids to meet other kids and swim.

During my 3 weeks trip, I stayed in Residence Inn, 2000 Faraday Avenue. People in the front office are friendly. My client place is very near by and in walk able distance, so except on rainy days, I prefer to go by walk. They provide complementary Shuttle service for short distance which is a must for a traveler like me,... More

Over the previous 12 months I have stayed at The Residence Inn Carlsbad many times, sometimes for 2-3 week stays. The newly renovated hotel is pristine, the staff are extremely competent and friendly, and the location for me is perfect. The Internet is fast and free. I enjoy the Thursday evening free BBQ by the pool. In all of my... More

If you need a stable base of operation with all the tools required to do business as well as relax, and you're a stickler for good service...you've come to the right place.

We have put up friends at this Inn several times and have always enjoyed the experience. The staff was friendly and helpful and especially appreciated the assistance of front desk clerk, Nick. The breakfast is very wholesome and has great selections. It is kept stocked and clean. I always recommend the Residence Inn to friends and family.
