The inn was clean and comfortable. It is on a busy street but we were not bothered by the noise. The breakfast was basic but satisfying. The rooms were comfortable to stay in. This inn is on the north end of Santa Cruz close to Natural Bridges State Park.

Excellent customer service. Clean. quiet. Enjoyed the breakfast/breakfast room (nice selection, great coffee, and fresh fruit). Nice covered outdoor hot tub. Felt like a bed-and-breakfast versus a motel vibe. Very comfortable. Can’t wait to go back.
