It’s always great to stay at the Hilton Scott’s Valley. I know the grounds are well maintained, the front desk is always pleasant, and the room will be clean. I just wish they would get rid of the parking fee. Nonetheless, I wouldn’t stay anywhere else when visiting Santa Cruz.

The bed was extremely uncomfortable making it hard to sleep. The rest of the hotel was fine, but given the main purpose for a hotel room is to sleep, I had to ding the hotel for the awful bed.

My wife and I booked two nights. The bed was so hard that neither of us got much sleep the first night, and we both had aches and back pain the next day. We took the loss and ditched the second night.

The front desk did not ask for auto information. The next morning there was a notice on my car that there was no record of why I was in my parking lot. Now a firm is trying to collect $75 for me being there. That is not going to happen. Kind of like a SCAM.
