Top Merced Hotel Reviews

El Capitan Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The room was very clean and comfortable. There was a bit of street noise - not the hotel’s fault - but complimentary ear plugs were already in the room. Use valet parking ($15) unless you want to walk outside a couple minutes between the parking lot and the hotel during foul weather. I very much liked my stay and will stay here again."
