The room was modern, clean, and comfortable, and the staff were friendly and attentive. Check-in was smooth. The air conditioning and all room amenities worked perfectly. The on-site restaurant was convenient and the atmosphere relaxing. Wi-Fi was reliable, though slightly slow. Overall, a great experience — stylish hotel with good service.

I absolutely loved this property as it felt like a resort rather than a hotel. The staff was very friendly, the venue was spectacular especially in regards to the pool, bar, and restaurant, and the bed was one of the most comfortable beds I've ever slept in. I highly recommend this hotel and I will definitely be staying here again the next time I'm in Santa Cruz.
