Poor location
The Travelodge in Santa Cruz was adequate for a one-night stop on the way between the Bay Area and Los Angeles. We had difficulty finding the hotel despite having a map. Restaurants were not within walking distance. The pool is not open during the winter months. The room we had also had noise from the busy street outside. It was a better stop than in other cities along the 101 route but we would not stay at this hotel again.

Sightseeing tip:
Short drive from hotel
UC Santa Cruz is beautiful and close to the motel. The area seemed quite safe but it was necessary to drive to a restaurant. The hotel staff was very unhelpful when we had difficulty finding the hotel.

decent value and location
Located fairly close to the Boardwalk, which is the main reason I picked Travelodge. We got a smoking room which included a mini-fridge. Two extras we enjoyed. Decent place to stay for the money.

Plain vanilla
Overall acceptable, but hardly any pleasant surprises. Could not convince the fridge to work, and the bathroom door needed some negotiation. The stench of disinfectant required sleeping with the window open.

There was nothing really wrong with the room or hotel it self. "We got what we paid for. Which was a very in-expensive room." Overall all it was quite, no complains.
