Our second stay at this hotel. It’s kind of our goto hotel now when visiting Santa Cruz. The staff is great, parking is great, and location is great. It’s within walking distance to food and other necessities. There is a great pizza place across the street, 711, and an ice cream place. I only wish it had a pool. Comes with a nice simple breakfast that gets your day started.

Location was great for walking to the nearby brewpubs and shops, easy access to walking trail. However, our room was facing Mission St and it was super noisy from cars driving by throughout the night and morning. They didn't have any rooms on the first floor so only floor was second floor. There were stairs to get out and let you out on the street, which was convenient with dogs, but door doesn't open from the outside so always had to go inside to get to room. All in all, it was fine, convenient and easy.
