La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham Santa Cruz
It was a lovely property and I really enjoyed my room. I did think that more than doubling the price for Friday night stay was ridiculous. Breakfast was decent but very crowded in a small space. It was nice to have a dining area, but that was also very chilly.

Rooms are nice, the trails are great. Pool area and Joanne very nice. Only issue is the restaurant food wasn’t great and the service was really bad.

Marea Sol Hotel
Room was overlooking beachfront. Request higher up room if you want a view. Ours was on ground floor and restricted view of parked cars. Nice room and recently completely renovated.
