Host is a scammer. Claiming false damages when there is no proof of such.
The condo is in a terrific area (I am a local but had family in town). The condo is old and when we arrived it was pretty dirty. Mold in the showers, bedroom closet and window sills, floor was sticky and hadn’t been cleaned in a while. The kitchen is updated and had a lot of amenities which was the only perk besides the location. No AC which causes the condo to be very hot and probably aids in the growth of the already present mold. We decided to make the best as we just were happy to be together and have a family girls trip since the condo is very reasonably priced for the area and we knew we would not be inside much. Two weeks after our stay, the host is claiming we ruined all his linens and supposedly had to dispose of them all and purchase new ones and that the condo was the dirtiest his cleaning crew had ever seen it in 17 years (dramatic much?). My mother and niece are both in the cleaning industry and we would never dare leave a place dirty like such. If we did actually leave the place as he claims, why was notified of the charges two weeks after our departure? Seems to me that this host is looking for money and saw an easy target. Communication leading up to the stay was non existent as well as follow up very delayed. Great opportunity for the price and probably would have given a decent rating despite the uncleanliness but after what the host is trying to pull, would highly caution anyone and everyone against staying here.

Great location very clean and modern. Had more supplies than any other places we have stayed. The sliding door was hard to close and a mop would have been nice to mop the floors. Also an alarm clock would have been nice. I cooked earlyThanksgiving dinner for my kids they loved the place. Will definitely try to rent again when we go to Carlsbad

Nice unit in a cute village
Nice unit in a very nice village. Lots to see and do. Landlord was easy to communicate with. We visited during a week that was very warm and the lack of air conditioning made the nights difficult. We kept the fans running all day and night and opened all windows, but that did little to help with the heat. Also, we stayed seven nights and the upstairs neighbors had parties that went pretty late into the night on three of the seven nights. Loud music, swearing, stomping, dog barking, etc... At 1:00 am on the second night we went up and politely asked them to hold it down, which they did somewhat after that. Ironically we probably woke them in the morning as a few days after partying late I saw them literally roll out after noon. Again, nice unit in a great neighborhood, but no AC and loud neighbors tempered our stay.

Except for the hurricane a great trip
The location was great. Close to the beach. Close to the Coaster. Close to restaurants. Much roomier and homier than nearby hotels I'd previously stayed in. The kitchen had everything I needed, except a tea pot 😁. As a visitor from North Carolina I couldn't believe a hurricane warning put a damper on the last day of my trip🌧!

Perfect location!
This is a perfect location to get anywhere in Carlsbad. We walked to the beach, dinner, shopping etc. The kitchen is stocked with supplies, plenty of towels and a comfy bed. As stated in other reviews the upstairs neighbor does walk a little heavy footed and there is a bar behind the complex, we went to bed at 11pm every night with no issues and slept very comfortably. The complex is quiet, dedicated parking, great patio for morning coffee. It is really a great unit.

Location!
Perfect location for those without a car. The Harbor Cafe has beach chairs and umbrellas to rent ($10/day) and there is a very clean restroom (State Beach). The Village has many restaurants easily within walking distance; favorites include Carlsbad Danish Bakery & The Goods for danishes, donuts, and coffee; Gonzo Ramen, Fresco Cocina (Happy Hour margaritas), Bluewater Grill. The apt has been aptly reviewed: comfortable bed, well-equipped kitchen (we did not use), wonderful fans. We moved (and returned) a lamp from the bedroom which helped with lighting in LR. The only downsides: cleaning crew needs to do a better job in the bathroom (hair in tub and towels); we replaced with white fluffy towels from closet. The crew should have noticed a chair leg needed to be tightened when they moved it to clean the floor (I almost fell & we tightened the bolt) The sliding glass door is very difficult to open/close. Thank you for the leftover roll of TP and paper towels as it helped to supplement what we brought and used up. Park Restaurant was not a problem as noise stopped early (8:30-10:30 PM). Wonderful stay!

Great location
This is a condo in a collection of condos near the heart of Carlsbad. The kitchen is remodeled and well stocked with everything needed. The bed is very comfortable, and the bathroom is clean (as us the whole condo) with a great shower. There is a nice closed in seating area just outside the sliding glass door in front for morning coffee. There are a few small things that caused me not to give it 5 stars which might not be important to others. Although it was mentioned in the lengthy rental contract, the lack of provision of paper products (napkins, paper towels, TP) and trash bags was an inconvenience. Also, the sliding glass door out to the patio took a lot of force to open and close. Both my wife and I are avid readers and the lack of a comfortable chair (although there was a comfortable couch) and lamps (only overhead lighting) for reading was another inconvenience. The host was very quickly responsive to questions. Overall I would stay here again.

LOCATION IS FANTASTIC
Cleanliness was missing, there is mold in the bathroom window, that window doesn't lock, the blinds, light fixtures, furnace all need deep cleaning. I was there for a month and there were no cleaning supplies provided? The people upstairs are heavy footed and they have a dog so when they play with it that is noisy.
