Top Carlsbad Hotel Reviews

White's City Cavern Inn

White's City Cavern Inn

8/10 Good
"Decent place to stay. Quite close to the caverns if you're going there. Rooms are comfortable and clean. The "continental breakfast" leaves a bit to be desired. Mini muffins, various fruit and the plastic cereal tubs from the variety pack, OJ and milk. Sparse but puts something in your belly. The pool is probably one of the biggest attractions with a pirate ship for those adventurous types. If/ when the water slides are working that would be a big plus."
