Seacliff Inn Aptos, Tapestry Collection by Hilton, hotel in Watsonville

Seacliff Inn Aptos, Tapestry Collection by Hilton is located in Aptos. This 3-star hotel offers free WiFi. Guests can chill out in the outdoor swimming pool.

Did not include breakfast and worst of all no free coffee available outside of room. I get up around 6, can't wake up my friend so can't make coffee in the room. Cost me 6.00 for a cup of coffee, I'm on social security income, its a lot for me. I've stayed at this hotel 26 years, lots of things have changed since it changed from best western. Don't get me wrong you've done a beautiful job remodeling but really miss the free breakfast and coffee. Your staff are excellent especially Michael in housekeeping.

    We had lived there for years and were back visiting family and friends. Traffic is terrible in the mornings till 10am heading to Santa Cruz, and pretty bad around Watsonville also. They do have a nice walking trail available not far from the hotel.

    Strawberry farming town 35 minutes from Santa Cruz.

    Strawberry farming town 35 minutes from Santa Cruz. We found the beach called Manresa, it was just 13 minutes from the motel. Capitola is a cute little town with small stores and the beach not too far from it. In Watsonville we loved eating at the Strawberry patch cafe and seating at the back outside patio. Another great breakfast place is Yesy’s. We recommend the Korean Restaurant in the city of Marina a few miles away.

    I was there for a family event but would have enjoyed staying longer and getting to know the town better and the history of this town. I also would have taken more time to see all the agriculture that takes place in Watsonville and perhaps visited some of the farms and purchased fresh produce.

    Watsonville us full of tourest activity's, it's safe for family's however it's a cross between the twin city's and chicago area but under supervision of the WPD concidering they have nothing else to supervise tourest are priority and safety comes first . according to them. The downside is this town is completely fast pase and if you don't keep up it will pass you by.

    Used the wrong materials for the remodel a few years ago.

    Used the wrong materials for the remodel a few years ago. Laminate flooring in baths are warping. De laminated furniture in every room ive stayed in. Denatured alcohol will remove black scratches from floors. I see your maintenance people and its my opinion that watsonville needs to. Step up with a better quality maintenance. Get some plants in big pots in the breezeway where elevator and stairs are. It looks so sterile in that area. Hire an artist to paint a mural on some areas.change those nasty mats in front of all room's.

    I was born there and Watsonville is centered between Monterey and Santa Cruz so there are so many sites to see. Watsonville is very much an Agriculture city and seeing the Ag fields is pretty cool. Watsonville is the strawberry capitol of the world and ALL the fruits and vegetables are fresh

    The location was fine but when my wife and I arrived, we thought it odd that there were no cars parked, only a couple of trucks, and groups of workers going in and out a side entrance. The main door was cabled shut and although I barely remember my 2 yrs of HS Spanish was able to glean from a nice young man who sensed my confusion that the entire facility had been rented out, like a dormitory, to these workers. Fortunately we quickly scouted around and found a Motel 6 that had a couple of rooms left.

    The hotel was not too far from Santa Cruz, it was conveniently off the hwy. We were happy to have a gas station and Starbucks neighboring the property. The rooms were spacious, clean and modern. The hotel itself looks brand new and the facilities were very very comfortable and easy to use. The staff was amazing with an easy check in and check out. The common areas were inviting. Free bottled water when you walk in. =)

    The hotel is new, clean and well maintained. The room was confortable, and the beds were perfect. The pool and the fitness center were relatively small, but there was nobody when we used them. The breakfast was good, and staff is taking care during the whole morning. We recommend this hotel for a stopover on the highway 1.

    Clean rooms. Friendly staff. We used this hotel as a starting point for a southward trip down highway one and the location was great. The provided self laundry facilities were high capacity and fast (washed and dried a small suitcase of clothes in just over an hour)

    The room fit my family of six. Loved the property. If I am ever in the Santa Cruz/Monterey area again, I will stay in Watsonville and I will always stay at the Best Western Rose Garden Inn.
