I booked thinking this was one of the better hotels in the area and stayed with my girlfriend. We realized quickly that this was more of a Motel. The room was stuffy with no way to open windows, there were questionable clientele coming in and out through all hours of the night. The jacuzzi and pool were surrounded by all the rooms that could look out at you vs. being private. Zero chance at a good view. Just the main road nearby and a gas station. I tried to cancel my second night and was checked out by 11am, but they were firm on charging me for the second night, despite having most of their rooms vacant and the bad experience. Not much good to report here folks, but this is what you get for over $160 a night in this economy. Bad times.

Family visit

I like staying at this Best Western because it's convenient m, next to the freeway, yet quiet. The reception people are always friendly & helpful. They offer a hot breakfast which includes yogurt & muffins & waffles. It’s a goos deal for the money. My only complaint is there are no recycling bins on property & this is California people.

Good enough for a one night stay

We were surprised that no extra pillows were available and wished we had brought are own. The ones on the bed were very small and soft. The room was a decent size, and it was chosen because the hotel is dog friendly. I found a couple of long human hairs which had been missed but otherwise seemed ok.

We had a very relaxing time. The hotel was between Santa Cruz and Felton. A lot to do in the three areas. The hot tub was very clean and felt great. We will be coming back.

We'll not go back

We were not informed that there wold be no housekeeping service. Towels were coarse and uncomfortable. There was a dreadful stench permeating the front desk area (this has been persistent over the past year). Nonfunctioning hot beverage machine for breakfast and the buffet was not appealing.

Pretty good!

We stayed 2 nights. The location is good, close to lots of things to do. The hot tub was very relaxing. The breakfast could have been better-too many carbs and sweets, and eggs were not good. Overall, it was a decent price for a clean room and fairly comfy bed. The staff was friendly and helpful.

Some pros, some cons

This hotel is as okay for the price. It was also conveniently located for us. The property itself was somewhat lacking. It’s basically an upgraded version of a cheaper motel. The rooms are very small if there are two queen beds. The bathroom is also very small. It would also be great if there was some sort of nightlight or small lamp because it was very dark in the room at night, making it hard to get to the bathroom. The fan in the bathroom was very loud and came on with the light so we would disturb each other in the night. The shower handle was also a bit broken in our room. They do have a nice pet area that our dog liked!
