The hotel is in a great location, close to the beach and not far from the city center. The service quality is very good, especially the service attitude of the front desk, which reflects Marriott's good service style. The room is large and has a wide view, and the hotel lobby and entrance are very elegant.

The room was very clean and very big. The only thing that was confusing was the parking lot. The doorman had exclusive parking. You had to give him the key and he would help you. It was pretty good. Hahaha

The room was large and clean, with a living room area. It's only a few minutes' walk from the park and about a 15-minute drive from Redwood National Park. Please note that the check-in time is after 4 o'clock, so there will be no rooms if you go early.

The hotel is very close to Santa Cruz Beach and is considered a relatively large hotel in this seaside resort town. It has a grand facade, a large lobby and rooms with simple designs. However, the facilities in the room are the same as other hotels in the United States, with a refrigerator, microwave, and toiletries, but no toiletries, slippers, or drinking water.

This is my second stay. I am very satisfied with the location. It takes only 2-3 minutes to walk to the boardwalk and is close to various restaurants. The room is also very clean, but the housekeeping staff may be short of people. I asked them to help clean the trash can, but they didn't come.

Never had to write this bad of a review. Terrible experience for the what I spent on. First front reception impression was bad. 2 receptionists, one on the phone helping a lady with an issue. She seemed very stressed. The gentleman helping the rest of us making a line. When it was my turn, my card wouldnt go through. When the lady receptionist was done with the call she seemed like she was about to get a mental breakdown. He then decided to try my card on her side and was successfully processed. He didn’t explain or gave me any instructions about the key. Key needed to work the elevators and power in the rooms I had to figure it out on my own. He Didn’t offer or explained parking, I went back after we unloaded our stuff drove around and found out there was no place to park. The receptionist pretty much just processed my card. I stayed 3 nights and no one went into my room to take trash or pick up the dirty towels. Only thing they did was put a set of clean towels the night before my check out day and that’s about it. I was given an accessible room. I did not ask for one. A light on a night stand were unplugged. Found multiple lotto tickets inside the pull out bed. Toilet paper handle was broken. By the way…..what kind of bar closes at 8? The bartender didn’t seem professional or welcoming. When checking out I was asked how I wanted my receipt. On paper or email. I told her I rather get an email. I checked out around 8am and it’s 435pm and I haven’t received my email. The only people I will say were amazing at their job were the valet guys. They were friendly, helpful and did their job.
