Nice big room, great for our dog with pet area, big bathroom with 2-person shower and enough room for our surf boards that we didn't want to leave in the parking lot overnight. Nice mini-fridge with Keurig coffee maker. Comfy bed/sheets, but pillows were a bit flat and hard (I'm a side sleeper). Otherwise, great location and great price

This is my go-to place to stay and have family stay when visiting Santa Cruz. It's safe, clean and reasonably priced, but still walking distance to the wharf and boardwalk and downtown.

I was disappointed. The people I checked in and out with were great! The room itself not so much. The worst of the worst was that the bathroom had one light and when you used it an extremely loud fan went on. To avoid it I took a shower by flashlight. Also there were scant outlets for electronics.

We asked to move rooms because the first room had a stained bedspread and the bedside table lamps didn’t work. The front desk girl was lovely and accommodating. The rooms are dated and could use a refresh.

Great little spot to walk to the Boardwalk- about 5 minutes. There’s a soccer park right across the street and it was used all day. If you need it quiet, this isn’t the spot for that. The room was as expected. Had everything I needed and was clean. There’s even a little keurig machine.

The proximity to the beach, boardwalk and shops was great. However, the overall safety did not give a secure feeling. The hotel was loud (which they addressed in a clever way with the earplugs and note which I appreciated) but left a feeling of the hotel being a party destination. There were many people conjugating in the parking lot and around the. building.

My family of four love this hotel. The pool was not heated this time of year but the hot tub was nice and warm for a dip. The staff was accommodating and friendly. The location between downtown and the pier-boardwalk area is perfect for a quick visit.

Always love staying here because it's so clean and feel safe parking my car in the parking lot without worries of it getting broken into. And walking distance to the water. I feel like it's a great value for the area.

On one of the coldest nights in Santa Cruz; the heater, TV, and light switches were broken. the room was carpeted and smelled of mildew. We didn’t get in until late and were too tired to request a new room. When checking out I gave the front desk clerk a heads up about the room. His response was “well did you call maintenance?”. No apology or anything, just an accusation. Highly recommend that you avoid this place
