You.cant beat the value for your money. Staff is awesome. Rooms are clean. Not fancy. No pool, free coffee, etc , but its incredibly inexpensive for the area. Beach and cute shops are fairly close. Fyi train is behind the motel, but it has never woken me up. I stay 3-4 times a year.

Disliked: Amenities
Backs up to train tracks. Loud. Walls are thin? You can hear kids and adults talking loudly. Bed uncomfortable. It’s good of you are just looking for cheap and have earplugs, or turn white noise on to muffle what’s around you. Positives: Close to everything, we walked for dinner, entertainment, dessert! Definitely not going to stay here again .

Free parking! If you're like us wanting an inexpensive place to sleep because you spend most of your time at the beach & sightseeing, this is a good place.

Everything was great. Nancy was super helpful. If I could give constructive criticism, would be about the room we stayed in. A little money could be invested because the room was really run down. And also not the cleanest.

This motel was conveniently located just blocks away from the Carlsbad beachfront area and village, which made for a nice morning walk with coffee. The property is a bit run down but the room was fine except the floor was not cleaned (as evidenced by a dark residue picked up by walking with bare feet).

The Scandia is in a good location. Walking distance to stores, restaurants, the beach. Facility is older and some may be turned off, but if you need a good value, basic room, I would check it out.

An older property with very small room, but it was clean and the floors and fixtures were updated. The commuter train runs right behind it, but stops at 10:00pm. The motel/hotel prices in this area are crazy expensive, this motel was almost reasonable in price.
