I phoned the property and received a prompt text message back letting me know that they had received my detailed voicemail and provided me with very helpful guidance on how to receive my key after hours. ##### Karen Stayed 1 night in Mar 2026 Verified ### 4/10 Poor #### Anngelica Mar 16, 2026 Disliked: Staff & service After a long day at the beach, arriving to the hotel at 6 o’clock, which is only two hours after check-in and no parking was available and on the rental listing that said up to two spots, there was no help from staff very disappointing ##### Anngelica Stayed 1 night in Mar 2026 Verified ### 4/10 Poor #### Julie Mar 15, 2026 Liked: Property conditions & facilities Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities The location is good but that’s about it. Pillows were cheap and lumpy. Bed seemed clean but the floor and corners didn’t. Spoke with one man who was cleaning and he was nice, but the woman in the office was gruff and seemed overworked. Didn’t feel very welcoming and like she doesn’t have a lot of support. Window also didn’t have a curtain so the light came in through the slates very bright. It was only a one night stay, we likely won’t be back. I don’t want to be treated like I’m annoying for asking a simple question and no one answers the phone. My advice? Get some better support for your staff so they’re not overwhelmed and grumpy. Room was not cheap and it’s the off season. ##### Julie Stayed 1 night in Mar 2026 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Sean Mar 15, 2026 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities This was a great place to stay if you’re just needing somewhere to sleep. Super comfy soft beds, but small pillows. The floor was sticky which was kinda gross but everything else was great. Definitely a good deal for what it’s worth. Parking was a struggle, but at the same time it’s free so…. Overall, a great place to stay if you’re just needing a bed and a shower. ##### Sean Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2026 Verified ### 4/10 Poor #### Blake Mar 15, 2026 Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities Staff was nice but the room we stayed in could have been cleaner. It had a muggy kind of smell and there were various spaces of the room where we found hair. The walls of the rooms were very thin and we could hear our neighbors talking and walking. Overall it was an okay stay but it could have been cleaner ##### Blake Stayed 1 night in Mar 2026 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Galvin Mar 13, 2026 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities The property for us os clean and simple. Could have used a chair or two with a small table. Staff is friendly. Shops and restaurants are close by, felt very safe. The worf and ocean are close by. Have stayed there several times. ##### Galvin Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2026 Verified ### 4/10 Poor #### Roseann Rivera Feb 8, 2026 Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities Front desk staff was VERY RUDE. Tall woman long blonde hair who I believe lives on the property. Our room was clean and cozy, a little dated but clean. The rooms have no phones or clocks. Our room look stopped working , we were getting ready to leave for the morning when we realized it. Went to the office and the front desk attendant changed the battery. When that didn’t work she then said, “ if this doesn’t work then I don’t know what to tell you “. She went back to the office and I went down to ask for another room if our lock could not be fixed. When I walked in the office, she said, “we’re closed” and I said “well the door was open and she responded with “I knew I should’ve locked it”… I had to fight for a new room because she wanted to leave for the day and wanted us to wait for the maintenance person to come fix it. Not very friendly at all. ##### Roseann Rivera Stayed 2 nights in Jan 2026 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Michelle Jan 31, 2026 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Smooth check in. Great service and a great price for the month of January .

Maybe I missed something on the agreement. We helped by putting out the trash and towels. The rock shower floor was great too see but to step on during showering sometimes was difficult. and maybe having a clear time of the office hours could help. Other than that great location and surroundings. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/8e1fb264-3305-402e-bb2c-eadc59dfb096-1766334685257.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Sepuloni Stayed 4 nights in Dec 2025 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Yazmin Elizabeth Dec 8, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Loved it will definitely stay here again ##### Yazmin Elizabeth Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2025 Verified ### 6/10 Okay #### Ricardo Nov 29, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness Internet signal was too poor ##### Ricardo Stayed 1 night in Nov 2025 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Paola Nov 18, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness Great but the owner is never there and I still have a 100 dollar deposit pending on my cash app for a whole 2 weeks already.

Convenient location. ##### Jeremy Stayed 3 nights in Nov 2025 Verified ### 4/10 Poor #### james Nov 12, 2025 Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities the room floor was not swept - pet hair everywhere. The overall feel of the room was not good. Bad paint, worn trim, just dingy all the way around. Will most definitely NOT stay here again. The location means nothing is the room is BAD.... ##### james Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2025 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Lluvia Nov 10, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness Every thing was ok !! I had a great time ##### Lluvia Stayed 1 night in Nov 2025 Verified ### 4/10 Poor #### Mary Nov 10, 2025 Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Our bedsheets had stains on it, outlets were missing covers, the bathtub looked dirty, there was no help desk at night, and parking is horrible. It’s super close to the pier, about 15 mins walk to boardwalk but other than that it’s horrible. Don’t be fooled by the pretty marketing photos. Look at trip advisor first before booking. ##### Mary Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2025 Verified ### 6/10 Okay #### Martha Nov 9, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort There was a lod noise emitting from outside the whole night. ##### Martha Stayed 1 night in Nov 2025 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Johnjeffrey Nov 6, 2025 Great ##### Johnjeffrey Stayed 10 nights in Oct 2025 Verified ### 6/10 Okay #### Alaina Nov 6, 2025 Liked: Property conditions & facilities Disliked: Cleanliness In a great location — right in between the boardwalk and downtown so easy to walk around. For the price this place is awesome. Only complaint is the SMELL. Stayed here twice, the first time it was just the bathroom that had a bad sewage smell, the second time it was the whole room. Had to keep window open and still didn’t help much. Not sure if it’s the pipes or what but bad enough that we probably won’t stay here again unless it’s a last option which sucks because it’s a nice spot in great location. ##### Alaina Stayed 1 night in Oct 2025 ## Explore a world of travel with Expedia - [Lodging](?equalTargetTab=tab-0) - [Flights](?equalTargetTab=tab-1) - [Packages](?equalTargetTab=tab-2) - [Cars](?equalTargetTab=tab-3) - [Vacation Rentals](?equalTargetTab=tab-4) - [Things to Do](?equalTargetTab=tab-5) - [Charming B&B steps to beach, boardwalk, pier, shop, restaurants w bath & WiFi #6](https://www.expedia.com/Santa-Cruz-Hotels-Charming-BB-Steps-To-Beach.h115416940.Hotel-Information) - [Santa Cruz Guesthouse Surrounded by Redwoods](https://www.expedia.com/Santa-Cruz-Hotels-Santa-Cruz-Guesthouse-Surrounded-By-Redwoods.h66970027.Hotel-Information) - [Best Western Plus Capitola By-the-sea Inn & Suites](https://www.expedia.com/Santa-Cruz-Hotels-Best-Western-Plus-Capitola-By-The-Sea-Inn-Suites.h532613.Hotel-Information) - [Howard Johnson by Wyndham Santa Cruz](https://www.expedia.com/Santa-Cruz-Hotels-Howard-Johnson-By-Wyndham-Santa-Cruz-Beach-Boardwalk.h15140.Hotel-Information) - [Salt Air Lodge](https://www.expedia.com/Santa-Cruz-Hotels-Salt-Air-Lodge.h16153526.Hotel-Information) - [2 Room Suite - Indoor Pool and Spa - Walk to the Boardwalk - No Cleaning Fee!](https://www.expedia.com/Santa-Cruz-Hotels-2-Room-Suite-Indoor-Pool-And-Spa-Walk-To-The-Boardwalk-No-Cleaning-Fee.h95806726.Hotel-Information) - [Pacific Blue Inn](https://www.expedia.com/Santa-Cruz-Hotels-Pacific-Blue-Inn.h3038261.Hotel-Information) - [Fairfield Inn & Suites Santa Cruz - Capitola](https://www.expedia.com/Santa-Cruz-Hotels-Fairfield-Inn-Suites-Santa-Cruz-Capitola.h4395449.Hotel-Information) - [Hotel Solares](https://www.expedia.com/Santa-Cruz-Hotels-Hotel-Solares.h15569536.Hotel-Information) - [Casablanca On The Beach](https://www.expedia.com/Santa-Cruz-Hotels-Casablanca-On-The-Beach.h5067924.Hotel-Information) - [Best Western Plus All Suites Inn](https://www.expedia.com/Santa-Cruz-Hotels-Best-Western-Plus-All-Suites-Inn.h5407.Hotel-Information) - [Ocean Gate Inn](https://www.expedia.com/Santa-Cruz-Hotels-Ocean-Gate-Inn.h1106670.Hotel-Information) - [Fireside Inn Santa Cruz](https://www.expedia.com/Santa-Cruz-Hotels-Fireside-Inn-Santa-Cruz.h890831.Hotel-Information) - [Mission Inn](https://www.expedia.com/Santa-Cruz-Hotels-Mission-Inn.h9675322.Hotel-Information) - [Holiday Inn Express Hotel & Suites Santa Cruz by IHG](https://www.expedia.com/Santa-Cruz-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Express-Hotel-Suites-Santa-Cruz.h2458057.Hotel-Information) - [Continental Inn](https://www.expedia.com/Santa-Cruz-Hotels-Continental-Inn.h1164963.Hotel-Information) - [Beachview Inn](https://www.expedia.com/Santa-Cruz-Hotels-Beachview-Inn.h1110782.Hotel-Information) - [Surf City Inn and Suites](https://www.expedia.com/Santa-Cruz-Hotels-Surf-City-Inn-And-Suites.h5293.Hotel-Information) - [Hampton Inn Santa Cruz West, CA](https://www.expedia.com/Santa-Cruz-Hotels-Hampton-Inn-Santa-Cruz-West.h47083738.Hotel-Information) - [Riverside Inn & Suites Santa Cruz](https://www.expedia.com/Santa-Cruz-Hotels-Riverside-Inn-Suites-Santa-Cruz.h1742350.Hotel-Information) - [Flights to Santa Cruz County](https://www.expedia.com/Destinations-In-Santa-Cruz-County.d553248635996998000.Flight-Destinations) - [Santa Cruz County Vacations](https://www.expedia.com/Santa-Cruz-County.d553248635996998000.Destination-Travel-Guides) - [Car rentals near Santa Cruz County](https://www.expedia.com/Destinations-In-Santa-Cruz-County.d553248635996998000.Car-Rental-Destinations) - [Santa Cruz County Vacation Rentals](https://www.expedia.com/Destinations-In-Santa-Cruz-County.d553248635996998000.Vacation-Rental-Destinations) - [Things to do in Santa Cruz County](https://www.expedia.com/Things-To-Do-In-Santa-Cruz-County.d553248635996998000.Travel-Guide-Activities)
