They tried to over charge me by $100 and had no reason why. Watch your bill at this place.

Rooms are nice, the trails are great. Pool area and Joanne very nice. Only issue is the restaurant food wasn’t great and the service was really bad.

Holiday Inn Express Hotel & Suites Santa Cruz by IHG
This was our second visit to this hotel. 1) The room and bedding was very comfortable. The bathroom and room were very clean. 2) It was too noisy past 11 p.m. 3) Disabled parking should be free.
