We stayed in this hotel for my sons wrestling tournament this weekend and we definitely enjoyed our stay. Rooms were clean and the pool was heated our son enjoyed that and we definitely enjoyed a little relaxing time in the hot tub as well. Great spot with nearby stores and the beach!

Rooms are a bit outdated but overall clean. Some amenities (soap, complimentary water) are missing. The worst part is the short-staffed service for breakfast at the restaurant -- waiting for 30 min for breakfast seating and then another 30 min for food.

Much better than expected from the reviews!
Nice hotel with a well maintained garden and pool in the middle. I did like the refurbished rooms. Had an oversized one with a backyard view, next time I would prefer garden view even if the room is smaller. The only concern is the quite loud AC/heating in the room. I shut it off at night. 2nd floor does not have an elevator. No problem for me. Location is close to the PCH so its very convenient but not quiet. You can easily walk to Seacliff beach from here in 10-15 minutes. Highly recommended beach!
Front desk team was always very polite, friendly and attentive! They sent me someone to replace a broken bulb at the nightstands within 15 minutes. Staff 5 stars!

Great location for my regular trips to Capitola! The property is great with a pool, bar, restaurant, etc. The rooms are in need of an update, but happy considering the location and amenities.
