Annual Girls Trip - Capitola Art and Wine Festival

I must of clicked on wrong property because it wasn't what I thought I had rented but the paperwork gave the address of what I had agreed to. It smelled musty. Floors were not clean. Glasses in cupboard were not clean. Bathroom setup was odd. Furniture setup in one room was odd. It was not what we are use to staying in when we go on vacation in Capitola. The location was great, perfect for going downtown. I will make sure next time that I pay attention to the pics of the place and amenities when I book next time.

It suited our needs

This property is a cinder block home. It was located by my niece’s new shop that she recently opened, which was the reason we booked it. Although, I usually prefer to stay in homes on the river, the location was perfect and it was clean. There is a $141 “linen fee” & I was disappointed that the towels were such low quality.
