Our room was located over a very loud arterial. Loud exhaust cars and emergency vehicles. Place was clean but couldn't sleep well.

Thank you for your feedback! If you decide to stay with us again, please ask the front desk for a room near the pool, that'll help with the street noise. We are glad you enjoyed your stay otherwise.

Disliked: Cleanliness
Our room was not clean. There was hair all over the sink. Whoever stayed there before us shaved and was not cleaned properly. It’s on a very busy street so it’s very noise at night. Staff was nice but I would not stay again.

Although it was a cozy, comfortable room there is no ramp or elevator for the second floor. If you need handicap access ask for a room on the first floor.

Parking can be a challenge if they are fully booked. Otherwise it is centrally located for Santa Cruz and Monterey. San Jose is about an hour away, so close to a major airport.
