Alexander, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Place was good because the Area was ok and somewhat of a walking distance to the boardwalk. Entrance door or door frame had massive gap on top and bottom.
Hector, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Stress free.

Everything was cool. The pillows are kinda not really pillows. I reccomend bringing one if you are particular about pillows. Owners were friendly. Which is not common in santa cruz.

Not bad.

It was clean but noise with homeless people yelling on the streets the in the wee hours of the morning woke us up. Host was very courteous. The room we were in could use a fresh coat of paint but everything else was clean.

Richard, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

The location was great. The price was kinda high considering the rooms and amenities. The pictures definitely over sold the room. It seems as if they’re renovating slowly and in a shoty fashion. We found better rooms for cheaper after our first night.

Johana, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

Room didn't look like it had been swept or wiped . Pillows and blankets were paper thin. A/c fan didn't work. Zero parking. Only positive thing about room is pet friendly.
