It was a wonderful stay from checking in to checking out. Staff was very friendly and knowledgeable. The only thing that was a surprise to me was having to pay for parking $25 each day then having to do $100 deposit because I thought everything was included when I booked. They have a wonderful cafe shop on premises and the boardwalk is literally across the street and a lot of food options around. My daughter loved the pool although not heated it was a perfect size for her. We will definitely be staying there again

The hotel is located right in front of the Santa Cruz boardwalk therefore it is so convenient. The only time we drove was to make it to the downtown area. The hotel room we had, did have a balcony, which is great for watching the sunset. Overall I would stay here again in a heart beat.

Location is great. You can walk to most things. Hotel rooms are renovated and clean. Bed was comfortable. Bathroom was clean. Staff was friendly. The only problem I had was related to parking. Parking was $25 extra and that wasn’t mentioned in the original booking. Also parking spaces at the ground level are very tight- one way in and out. If you have a big vehicle you’ll find it difficult to come out of it if you go in. The entrance to parking at level 2 is from First street, behind the hotel and the spots are tight there too. I know parking is scarce in that area, but the extra fee should be mentioned in the ad for vacancy.
