Booked this hotel because reviews were good. We did not experience what the reviews said. Room was worn out & dirty. Overall hotel looked worn out. Carlsbad is a working town so lots of contractors from oil & gas fields using all the hotels hard.

4/10 Fair

Got to room & fridge was unplugged so it wasn’t cold at all for our cold groceries. Plugged it in & knew why, there was a loud noise that didn’t go away even after 4-5 hours so had to consume all perishables & unplug it. Then the room was 77 when we got there so it took hours to cool down. During the night it kept shutting off & wouldn’t come back on until it was at least 6-8 degrees above the temp we set it so everyone said they didn’t sleep well because it was so hot in the room. There were bags of beer cans by the elevator & someone threw up in the elevator. Still wasn’t cleaned up the next day. Never staying there again!!

Room was great, minus blood stained comforter
Front desk was really friendly. Breakfast was ok. The room was larger than I anticipated which was nice. We found some tiny blood stains on one of the comforters the morning of check out. I brought it to the front desk’s attention, not sure that came of it, since I left.

2/10 Poor

There were so many problems with the cats, I don’t know where to begin. 1) Check in-front desk clerk was rude and on a personal phone call via her air pods. She gave us one key for the room and failed to activate for the two days of our stay—so we ended up locked out of our room. 2) The bathroom fan didn’t work. The shower pan was ringed with a rusty red mildew/mold. 3) No lotion or conditioner were provided in the rooms. 4) The refrigerator began making a very load grinding sound—clearly it was dying. 5) At midnight, the lobby was vacuumed. This shouldn’t be a problem, but the room was right off the lobby, so we were awakened by the noise. This should have been done in the late morning. 6) Breakfast-worst included breakfast ever! No milk was available for cereal. There was no butter for toast or English muffins and no knives to spread anything on the toast or English muffin 7) WiFi-despite having the password, it kicked us off after 5 min. Don’t bother trying to use LTE bc there was limited signal. 8) Ramp-there is no ramp to wheel luggage from the lobby to the parking lot. Ultimately, this was the BIGGEST waste of money. I will NEVER stay at this or any other Main Stays. And I’m highly suspect of properties within the Choice hotels brand. For the money, La Quinta never disappoints. Avoid Main Stays and head down the street to LaQuinta.
