    amazing sea view
    intimate atmosphere
    comfortable bed
    nightly music noise

    charming stay but expect some noise

    The sea view from our room was amazing, especially during sunrise. The small, intimate atmosphere created a perfect spot for a relaxing getaway. The bed was comfortable, nice for a restful sleep despite the lively surroundings.

    Expect some noise from the nightly music, which might disrupt those looking for peace.

    The deluxe queen room we had was tastefully decorated. The location was unbeatable and good - just walking distance from everywhere we wanted to go. Also, the hotel was 2 miles away from Twin Lakes Church.

    Everything was simply great. Location: the hotel was close to the beach and a dozen restaurants. Found a place called Caruso's Tuscan Cuisine, set right next to the venue, ate there a few times.

    Half amazing, half disappointing

    The room was clean and the location was fantastic! Just a short stroll to the beach and close to various dining options.

    Customer service was disappointing,, as I struggled to reach management for assistance multiple times. Noise from nearby bars disrupted the peace, affecting our ability to relax.

    courtyard dining
    great location
    parking issues
    noise disturbances

    The location stood out with the beach just across the street. Cozy atmosphere and charming decor. The bed? Super comfortable, perfect for a good night's sleep. Enjoyed breakfast in the courtyard, it was nice to start the day outside. Staff was friendly and helpful, responsive to our needs. The parking situation was tough. Getting a spot was challenging, especially during the busy hours. Breakfast options could use some variety. It felt a bit lacking compared to other places I've stayed. The noise from nearby bars occasionally disrupted the peace at night. I would consider returning but hope for improvements in parking and breakfast quality.

    Staying at the Capitola Hotel reminded me of a charming retreat. The delicate decor created a warm, inviting atmosphere. Access to the beach suited our leisurely explorations, though parking was a bit tight. A good experience celebrating Americana by the coast.
