I was very pleased with my stay at the Capitola Inn. Since the last time I was there they have made great changes. The upgrades in the bathrooms (tile on floors and counter tops) was a great upgrade from the tired vinyl that was there before. I loved the expanded continental breakfast and their coffee machine is "to die for"!!!!!... more

We just returned from 2 nights at the Capitola Inn. The reviews had said it had been improved, but maybe they didn't have our room. This place needs major work in all areas: decks do not appear stable and are filthy; bathroom has mold, a shower that is just a trickle of water, and a toilet that keeps running; bedroom... more

Much improved since last time we stayed there! Rooms are now clean and updated, pool has new decking, breakfast is great with a wonderful espresso machine, staff were very friendly and helpful and the price much better than anything else in Capitola. If you like to listen to partying all night and pay double the price-- sleep in the village,... more

I recently spent 4 lovely days in Capitola-by-the-Sea. I stayed, once again, in The Capitola Inn and I am happy to relate that the Inn is being remodeled and improvements are underway. Two examples of improvements I saw were the new wall-to-wall carpeting and an espresso machine in the breakfast room. The room rates continue to be reasonable. The inn... more

Stayed for four days Thursday - Sunday. The service was great, very helpful. The grounds were kept, clean and tidy as well as the room. It had new carpets and bedding. The pool was very clean and warm. The continental breakfast had an AWESOME espresso machine! They served a variety of muffins and bagels, fresh fruit, yogurt, cereal, and waffles.... more

Stayed at the Capitola Inn over Labor Day weekend. The location is convenient, with a grocery story and drug store within walking distance. The beds were comfortable, but the rooms were sort of run down looking. The bathroom had the most pathetic excuse for a shower, with just a trickle of water and an awful screeching noise. The room we... more

My Aunt & Uncle stayed here the week of July 4th - and I was in the room a great deal of the time. Several years ago I'd have all my business associates stay here as it was clean & a nice place that one could depend upon. This time, however , I was not pleased with the corridors (going... more

We booked a room at the Capitola Inn and upon arrival decided to stay elsewhere. The property is very run down but the worst part is that it does not seem safe. There were a lot of "shady" people roaming around, not tomention the broken down motorhomes and trucks in the back parking lot. . . I don't have expectations,... more

Rooms are not being upgraded, repaired or modernized. Tiles missing in bathroom, faucets drip, bedding doesn't stay on mattresses anymore, pillows are scary and the employee we dealt with was rude and disrespectful. If he doesn't like his job or working with the public he best find another one. We have been staying at the Capitola Inn for the past... more

No one knows what they are doing. stayed last summer and had a wonderful experience even with a ant problem in room. The desk staff was very pleasant and helped us out. Not this time. Breakfast has warm juice in a dirty pitcher, and cereal bins that look like they havnt been cleaned in weeks. Pool not heated and very... more
