Good location close to beach and boardwalk. Property was clean but old. Some electrical outlets were worn. Got a room where you could see the ocean. Not true of all rooms. Caution Google picture showing a modern white building is NOT this inn.

Front desk was wonderful! Allowed me to park car in lot and check in early. Called me when room was actually ready. Great location easy walk to everything. I even was able to walk to downtown Santa Cruz from location. This is not a luxury hotel but was clean, safe, and quiet. Great rate and perfect for an overnight getaway to the ocean. Highly recommend!
