La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham Carlsbad - Legoland Area

10/10 Excellent

"Our family took a trip to Legoland for the weekend and this hotel was extremely close. For the price, it was absolutely worth it. Staff was friendly. Check in was easy. Pool area well maintained and the rooms were pretty spacious and clean. The breakfast was also a pretty good spread and would absolutely book here again."
