"This, in my humble opinion, is the best place to stay in Santa Cruz. It’s DIRECTLY in the middle of town—it’s easy to get anywhere from the hotel. The property is adorable. The pool is great. The bar is open late and the food is good. The rooms are updated and super cute. Whenever friends come to see our daughter at UCSC, I always recommend it. We love it ."
