Top Town Clock Hotel Reviews

The Aqua Pacific Hotel

8/10 Good

"Room was clean and newish looking. It was bright. AC was working. Bedside table had each had a box of tissue. It was disappointing that there was only 2 pool towel, 1 handhold and 1 wash cloth in the room. So pool towels were to be used as bath towels. So we used the towels for pool and did not have bath towels. No shampoo in shower, only body wash, conditioner and lotion. Staff may need better training. Everything else was fine. Room rate was good. We’ve stayed here before and the rooms look better this time. Under new management? Would stay here again."

Riverside Inn & Suites Santa Cruz

10/10 Excellent

"Very helpful Clean rooms"

Motel Santa Cruz

8/10 Good

"Friendly nice accommodating staff. Convenient parking. Location worked well."

Casablanca On The Beach

8/10 Good

"This place all around was beautiful, the location is great. My only complaint was that our coffee maker was missing a piece and I let the front office know about it and instead of getting a new piece or new coffee maker they told me oh well nothing they can do about it. They have a coffee bar from 8-10am but we have a baby so our mornings start at 5am so not having a coffee maker in the room sucked."

Hotel Solares

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel is real cute"

Holiday Inn Express Hotel & Suites Santa Cruz by IHG

8/10 Good

"Great stay with the exception of them running out of towels and only providing three towels when four guests were registered for the room"

"good"

Seaside Inn & Suites

Motel 6 Santa Cruz, CA

8/10 Good

"When I arrived the guy at the front desk was kind and helpful. The room itself wasn’t clean, walls were gross. I did a wipe down of everything and brought my own bedding. Door didn’t close all the way which was concerning. But it would still lock."
