"This is a hidden gem in Santa Cruz. Our family of four and
dog
recently stayed here. It’s a two minute walk to a beautiful cove. The room we stayed in was very spacious. It’s family friendly even for your fur babies. There is a $50
dog
fee that is not very transparent on Expedia’s website. Do yourself and favor and dine at Lago Di Como. It’s a five minute walk with incredible authentic Italian food. We cannot wait to come back! "

"We had a very comfortable stay. Great comfie bed, super soft sheets, very clean and very
dog
friendly. The room had a view and the largest walk in shower Iv ever seen in a hotel, with a rain fixture even my 6ft hubby could stand under comfortably. The
dog
run was neat, clean and so nice . This is a great amenity. The hotel is close to the beach, the big ardwalk and the municipal pier - right across the street. Our only issue was breakfast in the AM - we understood that a breakfast was...

"The hotel had a good location with parking and back. The neighborhood behind the hotel was great to walk
dogs
in. It was a very
dog
friendly hotel. The cleanliness of the bathroom could've been improved and no services were provided unless you asked for it in the room for a four day stay. Overall, we would come here again, but the staff could've been a little friendlier and the bathroom could've been a little cleaner."

"had a late check in and early check out was very accommodating to use the safe at the property to get our keys since no one was there when we arrived/ left. the room was nice i think the best feature is they allow
pets
for just $25 i feel like most places cost more. the best where very soft and comfy the tv had good channels. the shower stayed hot for a long time there was some pink stuff on the floor but i just ran the hot water for a moment and it went away. parking was good to despise other...
