Avoid like the Plague, you might catch the plague

This was ABSOLUTELY the most disgusting hotel my wife and I have ever stayed at. So much so, that we booked a room the very next day at a Holiday Inn Express a couple miles away. The room had gum on the wall right next to the crooked mounted TV. There were huge stains on the curtains, the leisure chair had some kind of disgusting debri under the cushion, and the updating/painting you would do to a room for normal wear and tear was done by someone with zero carpentry skills. But, the ABSOLUTE WORST thing was the refrigerator. It was frosted over at the top with what looked like black mold and some kind of growth. I brought this to the attention of the kid on duty late night and he offered another room which wasn't much better. He suggested I speak to the manager the following morning. I did, after I already secured a room at a different Hotel. The manger refunded half of my two day booking, but in hindsight, I think the whole booking should have been refunded. I am going to be looking into that.

The bath tub was clogged. Water past my ankles while taking a shower. There were kids running a marathon on the third floor right above my room. There was a lamp on the floor not sure why but it should have probably been on a table. The people who helped me were very helpful and nice bur the property itself needs some updates especially for tge price it was about $280 and very uncomfortable

The breakfast was great compared to other hotels, which don't have protein/hot food . Staff were respectful and always made sure breakfast was full. Very good location, close to both Santa Cruz, Santa Cruz mountains and monterey. one thing that needs a fixing is the hole in the shower and the black having a black stain that was hidden in the bottom of the bed. Would be a lot nicer if a pool facility was added
