When I checked in it was at night around 9:30 and a man was standing behind me waiting to pay for some snacks. I was nervous that the desk agent would say my room number out loud (safety first!) and to my surprise he did not and just showed me the number and told me where the elavators were. He was very friendly.

    Vista, CA is becoming an interesting place to visit.

    Vista, CA is becoming an interesting place to visit. We have family in the area and always find new places to enjoy together. An amazing guitar player is at Bleching Beaver on Wed evening 6 to 8pm. The outside area is a place to relax with family and friends. Sunday evenings there is country and western dancing at a place on Main Street. Smitty's offers Karaoke many nights of the week-it has been a staple in Vista for 22 years. Best Time Pizza is another great meeting place. Handel's ice cream also has a line that moves fast. We enjoy exploring Vista and keep finding new places.

    The apartment was perfect and had room for my group. Location seems safe. Not a great view, but the price is good and accomodations comfortable. Beds were pretty good and the couch was ok. A tad small, but it is an apartment so I expected that. I would definitely stay again.

    Vista has a big Variety of places to eat.

    Vista has a big Variety of places to eat. Not a far drive to the beaches, Oceanside Pier and Oceanside Harbor. Also a good proximity to hospitals. Traffic becomes congested during morning and afternoon with people going to and from work I suppose. Many Breweries in the area. Walking distance to IHOP.

    Affordability should not equal unease, but it’s how we felt.

    Affordability should not equal unease, but it’s how we felt. It prompted us to cut our stay even shorter, as a matter of fact. I didn’t expect, nor require, fancy accommodations, but this was not family friendly. Like I said, if you’re a single male, a brief stay should be alright. I won’t return nor can I recommend.

    It's a cheap hotel in an average to a slightly bad neighborhood. It feels like a Motel 6 that hasn't been altered at all since the 60's. Everything is linoleum floors, thin very cheap bedding and flat pillows. Show curtain was plastic with missing rings so it wasn't all hanging up correctly. It was a weird night because a police care (Expediition SUV) was parked outside with two officers sitting there watching me arrive. Would never recommend it to anyone...even at the price they charge!

    We went to the Moonlight Amphitheater for concert events. The location of La Quinta in Vista was ideal. There were plenty of excellent restaurant options available as well. We rode bikes in Carlsbad, just 20 minutes away and enjoyed lunch and the pleasant beach scenery for the day.
