This Capitola hotel is 10 minutes’ drive from central Santa Cruz and New Brighton State Beach. It features an outdoor pool, and spacious suites with 32-inch flat-screen TVs and an iPod docking station. Everything was great. The only thing I would recommend is that the breakfast food area be expanded. It is very small and does not accommodate enough people.
