The staff is really nice. Of course you get what you pay for. Rooms are clean, but the beds are a bit hard and the sheets could be a bit more fluffier. Neighbors around us seemed a little loud but then again that can happen anywhere you go.

Staff was decent , it was in a bad area . My shower was clogged. The water took a long time to go down the drain. I saw a lot of sketchy people around the hotel . The best part about the hotel, it was near some good places to eat . My family loved Marianne’s ice cream that is across the street . There’s a Starbucks, and the Habit burgers near by also .

Our stay was fine, the room was clean but had a slight order to it. There was fight in the room next to us and cops were called but that wasn't the Hotels fault.

The ratings for this motel are inflated. It is not nearly as good as it is rated. Although the room we had was clean and a good size, there were a range of other issues. Firstly, this property seems to have several long-term residents--some of whom you'll see outside on the premises. The area this motel is located in Santa Cruz also has a significant transient population. The appearance of the motel also does not resemble the photos posted here on Expedia. For instance, one of the windows to the main office was smashed. Overall, there are probably better places in town to stay.
