Upon arriving I immediately loved the flowers and plants everywhere and the welcoming feel! The staff were lovely and my room was very clean and a welcome retreat. The parking was probably the only thing I wouldn't rate 5 stars on (very skinny parking lot, one way and sometimes had to park very far from my room), but without hesitation I would definitely stay here again! (Plus the complimentary continental breakfast was fabulous!)

We needed a nights halt, 5 of us and our 3 month old pet dog. The location was key for proximity to UC Santa Cruz. Ocean lodge was the only place available at a decent rate (in comparison) that allowed pets. Room was perfectly sized with 2 queens, clean, and good overall for what we needed. The manager even allowed a late checkout , which was cool. Thanks 🙏
