The shower was incredibly low. If I had to guess it was about 5 and 1/2 ft from the floor of the tub. Staff was mediocre at best, at one point we canned down for service for cleaning the room and we forgot to give them our name, and when we called back to give them our name, they pretended like they already knew who we were. The funny thing is is that we were calling from a different phone than what was registered on our profile so there was no way they could know what that cell phone number was registered too. So they flat out misrepresented and did not own the outcome. Other than that, this was a passable location for the price. If all you're looking for is a place to sleep, this fits the bill. One plus side is that it is very close to Companion Bakery!

The room was okay, about what you'd expect for the price. The location was good. I went for a hike. The sauna & hot tub are what made me decide on this location, and they were just fine.

Actually the front desk guy was a bit surly when I asked for fresh towels ( my husband did not want to be disturbed when the housekeeper was making her rounds earlier). Other than that the stay was as expected.

This little place was great! Very centric, and pretty much right off what im assuming is a main street running through Santa Cruz. Close to many attractions, stores and downtown. The room was very clean, and the customer service was amazing. The breakfast was nothing fancy, but you also can't expect much if it's free, I suppose. The hotel is pretty small, and it's easy to get turned around while walking through the property, but it's practically a non-issue. Will definitely be staying here again.
