This place is clean, bright, and you can hear and see ocean from the apartment. The town is pretty and walkable and has some good coffee and eateries, all within walking distance. The only downside is PARKING! Although we got the permit to hang in the car we still got a ticket! Something about "no parking on 100 Capitola Avenue." ??? Also, although you can't survive without the permit it does not insure you an actual space and this proved a constant challenge. That said, we'd come again to this nice place and great beach town.
