Clean but too far from Santa Cruz. 20 minutes to the town . Near the north and south 17 entrances. Nothing around hotel. Housekeeping not done daily. Room was spacious and clean. Tv only regular channels. Breakfasts were nice. Plenty of choices for family. Coffee machine very nice with choices of coffees. Staff was friendly. Price was reasonable but next time I’d stay within Santa Cruz for a little extra.

The hotel was ok. The room was a good size. What we did not like was lack of housekeeping. Only every other day would they resupply towels and soaps. The breakfast was very nice- eggs potatoes sausage waffles cereal and breads. Clean outside with a pool and hot tub. It was located near north and south 17 ramps which made it nice. About 20 minutes to the town of Santa Cruz. Nothing to do so Next time we would stay within Santa Cruz. The staff was nice though.

Pros- The coffee machine and breakfast were really nice. Our sheets were clean and smelled good. Cons- The carpet in the room was very disgusting. I did not feel comfortable walking on it without shoes which made it difficult with two small children who like to play on the floor. The sink and bathtub had drainage issues. We did not feel comfortable at all in the rooms.

Will not stay there again.

The lobby was in good condition and the room was in ok condition. The beds were very hard, the bath fan was horribly noisy. The room smelled like marijuana when we first entered. For over $200 a night, I expected more. I would not stay here again.

They called me a liar

The air-conditioning thermostat did not work well so we were either freezing or hot all night. There was an underlying smell of smoke that got stronger as the night went on. What I texted to the customer service in the morning: Someone has definitely been smoking in this room. Allergies kept me awake for most of the night. They replied: Thank you for bringing this to our attention. We're sorry to hear that you've experienced discomfort during your stay. I understand how allergies can be difficult, especially when traveling. Our team is committed to ensuring a pleasant environment for all of our guests, and we take concerns about smoking very seriously. When you checked in yesterday afternoon, the room was thoroughly inspected, and no signs of smoke or any unusual order were detected. Additionally, our supervisor did not report any concerns about the room from the previous guest, which suggests there was no apparent smoke at that time. If there had been a noticeable smell, we would have expected it to be brought to our attention right away. We're always happy to assist guests with room changes or address any issues as soon as they arise. In order to smell smoke that has settled into the carpet, someone has to spend more time than just a quick inspection and cleaning products will mask the smell for housekeeping. The smell got stronger as the night went on. All our friends who live near the Scotts Valley location said they would never stay here, we should have listened.
