This is probably the best location in Santa Cruz! It’s right across the street from the beach and boardwalk. If you forget something while you’re sitting on the beach, you simply walk across the street directly to your room and your back on the beach in five minutes! The staff was great and friendly! Parking was easy. In the rooms are all clean and updated! Will definitely stay there again.

I liked how close this hotel is to the boardwalk, however I wish the hotel had more of a “kitchen” with a microwave better coffee maker.

Husband and I took a mini getaway. Sully the receptionist was so friendly and told us about a few good spots. She was so caring and had a wonderful smile. We chatted with her for a bit and felt very welcome. The place is nice and our view was amazing. We were close to everything. Definitely a good place to stay.
