If I could give this dump zero stars, I would. Studio 6 in Carlsbad is hands down the most disgusting, poorly maintained excuse for a hotel Iâve ever encounteredâand Iâve stayed in some rough places. Nothing could have prepared us for how bad this was.
The first room had no working air conditioning, and the bathroom walls were literally falling apart in giant chunks. It looked like someone had taken a sledgehammer to it and then just gave up halfway through. The entire place reeked of neglect.
We switched rooms hoping for something habitable. Big mistake. The second room was filthy, smelled like mold and chemicals, and when we came back from dinner, we were greeted by a roach infestation. Iâm not talking about a stray bugâI mean flipping the lights on and seeing them scatter in the kitchen like it was their home. Because it probably is.
We were so disgusted and creeped out, we slept in our car to avoid more bugs crawling on us in our sleep. Just used the bathroom and shower in the morning because we didnât want to die of heatstroke.
This place is a complete health hazard. Shame on whoever is managing this propertyâyou clearly donât care about guests, hygiene, or basic decency. Do not stay here. Ever. This place should be shut down.
