8.0

Good location near downtown and the harbor

Santa Cruz in general is really pricey on the weekend

No frills but fine

7.0

It was overall fine. No frills, but clean.

There's no breakfast and an unexpected $15 charge for parking. There was a creepy half naked man in the common area and the staff didn't seem to want to address him. It's not quite as near the beach as advertised.

very comfortable bed, overall great value

8.0

Bed and pillows are very comfortable. exceptionally comfortable for this price point. very big plus on the bed and pillows. bathroom was nice. didn't use any of the outside facilities but they had spaces for small gatherings around firepits and a small seating area indoors. fresh baked sweets every day (cookies, brownies, etc.) and coffee always available. free wifi, with the router right in the room. not sure if all rooms had it but I had a good connection.

no fridge in the room. they had a large staff fridge that was available 24/7 if anyone needed to use it (along with other kitchen essentials). to those reading that aren't from the area, keep in mind that Santa Cruz is built different. I would not trust this practice in areas like sacramento or the bay area, but santa cruz is different. still not my jam though I like to have cold waters with me in my room and would prefer even in a small in-room refrigerator. shower was nice but but the shower head was low pressure (typical for most hotels). better power options for charging phones and devices would be nice.

It's quiet and clean.

There is no one to check you in at arrival. Taped instructions to call. But no one answered.
