The hotel is in an excellent location, the breakfast was good. The breakfast had warm foods such as eggs, bacon, turkey, sausage, make yourself, waffles, eat your own bagels. It also had cereal, make your own oatmeal, 24 Hours, coffee and water. Very clean and organized. Room was spacious.

Comfort by the boardwalk

Good location near the beach and boardwalk. Rooms are comfortable and clean. Daily parking charge seemed a bit high, but maybe commensurate with being located near the beach and boardwalk - though I had assumed that was in the daily rate. Overall, quite pleased with my stay.

A great ocean view hotel experience

I have never stayed at a La Quinta hotel before and was pleasantly surprised at the quality and comfort. Santa Cruz is a beautiful town and hotels run the gamut in price and quality. La Quinta did not disappoint.

8/10 Very good

Océan view made it worth the work.

Access to hotel was not convenient and I found it challenging to find entrance. Driveway was small and congested. Service was friendly and accommodating. Ordered food from outside delivery and had to come to lobby to pick up order left on a random table as service was not allowed to come to room which was inconvenient. Beautiful ocean view and room.

Decent place in Santa Cruz

We were upgraded to a larger room which was great. The room was clean and comfortable, although the carpet was a bit worn. Breakfast could have had more options.

Amazing!

Our stay were amazing. The room was spacious, clean and modern. 5 min to pier and 10 min to Broadway. It was perfect. Also the hotel has underground parking ($25 per night), but that's good because at the beach parking is awful. We definitely recommend and hope to stay there again!
