They put us on the first floor by the elevator. We didn’t get any sleep bc you could hear every conversation that was taking place in the hallway and every door opening/closing. The room had low pressure water, so the shower experience was bad!! Never staying here again.

Front desk needs to be better trained if you’re going to work for a 5 star hotel. Lost, rude, and lack of hospitality or concern.

Peaceful Oasis
The Carlsbad Westin is in a beautiful location. It has a gorgeous pool area to relax by during the day and is quiet and peaceful for those that are not traveling with children.

It was nice. We liked the pool area, but on our second night there was so much noise in the hall, we could not sleep.

Not good
The bellman/ valet is completely useless. They didn’t even acknowledge that we arrived and when we asked for a luggage rack, he said no!
Then when we asked for his help, he came and dropped a luggage rack to us .
Wow…
Once we complained, they were ready to smile and acknowledge us.
Sad.
We won’t be staying here again.
