Courtyard by Marriott Santa Cruz

10/10 Excellent

"Great stay! Easy walk to the boardwalk."

Hampton Inn Santa Cruz West, CA

4/10 Poor

"Some how they were stingy with towels. Had to use my own. Next the shower advisement between hot and cold water was all messed up! Whoever installed it did something wrong and the daily crew who should have checked it on a daily basis should have bought that issue long time ago already! My desire to switch to a different room was denied; so we took showers that was weather too hot or cold!… Not impressed this visit at all with the conditions of the maintenance of the hotel but also not very impressed with the staff’s helpfulness. On top everything the room keys we were issued stoped working we noticed about 2 hours after we checked in. Normal we figured things happen! So went to the front where they were adjusted, let’s call it. Right after I went to my car to retrieve something. Tried both keys but couldn’t get the side door open! As if I have never used a key card before front desk assistant asked me if I used it correctly! And tried it at the door and told me it was the door that had an issue!… As I said, I don’t know what the administration, management or maintenance staff are getting paid for here! It sure looks like something is off! In the room; I never had to sleep on pillows as this! They were the same kind you will find in a cheap motel! Last time we were there we clearly remember being impressed by the comfort and quality of the pillows! It was very very disappointing for a Hilton chain to have reduced quality as they have raised their prices!"

Hotel Paradox, Autograph Collection

6/10 Okay

"The lobby and pool area are very nice. The pool was packed with kids, at all hours. Overall, I was disappointed. The room was small, with scuffed floors and looking a little worse for wear. The shower still had hair from the last occupant. There was no microwave and the prices at the bar and for snacks was very high. Common areas (hallways, elevator) were dirty with leaves and debris. I sincerely question the 4 star rating and why I spent so much for the experience I had."
