Filthy

The places was filthy. People were working on their cars in the parking lot with oil leaking everywhere. The room was not made and obviously someone had just been resting on the bed with the TV on. It was totally gross.

Great Place to Stay to Explore Capitola

Everyone was very friendly and the room is comfortable. It is a good choice for people who want to explore Capitola. It is about 1 mile to downtown Capitola with the beach and many great restaurants to enjoy.

Nice staff at check out. The staff at check in was not very welcoming. Didn’t even let me know there was breakfast. The room was great! The bed was comfortable and had plenty of pillows. I would stay here again.
