Tall guy with a buzz cut in his 20s deserves a pay raise. The door to the pool wouldn’t open when we used our key cards nor when we slammed our bodies into the door, he took us outside and hopped the fence to open the outside door so we could enjoy the hot tub on our anniversary night. Love that guy, he’s awesome.

I have stayed here several tines while visiting my UCSC student. I like the location, cleanliness, and easy parking. Recently, I needed my daughter to have a safe space away from her apartment and this place allows over 18 (instead of over 21 like others) to check in. It's a nice safe place with a good breakfast too!

Room was clean but wheel chair accessible and smelled a little musty. It was also smaller than the Capitola rooms and the tub was tiny. The very worst was that the tv did not play channel 2 and by the time the tech came it was halftime on the Super Bowl, so we thought, in fact we didn’t even get the actual game, that game was from 2 years ago. We missed the whole superbowl!!!! Also couldn’t watch the Warriors game the next day even with our own app. On that tv.
