I have stayed there many times and I understand prices going up, but to charge guest $20 each day to park I feel is not right. It should be 1 vehicle per room When I stay in Capitola, Monterey etc I’ve never been charged for my vehicle.

The room was nice and the view was top notch. The night staff at the front desk, however, had no knowledge about the whereabouts of a plunger at 11pm. The staff said there wasn’t anyone available until the morning to address a clogged toilet. The staff suggested that we could use the bathroom in the lobby overnight if needed. This is sub-standard service for the price of the room. Sorry we won’t stay here again, nor will we recommend the hotel.

Birthday let down

The room was beautiful. I did get a beach house suite, and it's all in all the place I was hoping for! The bed was very stiff, and I couldn't find myself to sleep on it. I did sleep in the living room bed, which I felt much more comfortable. The room experience was very nice, and was one of the best things about this location, as it didn't feel like your traditional motel. However, I wasn't satisfied with this motel. First and foremost, parking is $20. Which I'm totally okay with paying, but someone got into my vehicle overnight, ransacked my compartments, and stole some (of mine and my friends) belongings in my trunk. This made me dissatisfied with this location, because why am I paying for parking if the vehicles aren't even being guarded? There is a sign that says "This hotel does not take responsibility for damage", so beware of parking here. When I asked if they could look into the surveillance footage, they said they couldn't as a manager wasn't on site. Not even an apology, or compensation on the parking for the troubles. It truly ruined my stay at this location.

Great hotel right across from the pier. The room had amazing views of the beach and it was easy to walk over and return to the pool later.we appreciated the free coffee and popcorn as well as the laundry (important as we have been on the road for 5 weeks!). Having a kitchen in the room was also really useful, especially the microwave. The staff were helpful and responsive.
