The rooms were basic, but cute, clean, and comfortable. Perfect baseline amenities. The staff, however, was amazing. Couldn't ask for a better, more attentive team.

8/10 Very Good! (1,002 reviews)
Walls are very thin, so noise was an issue. They also closed the patio for cleaning from Saturday afternoon until we left early Monday morning. I was able to squeeze the last drop out of the bath wash container but my daughter had to use shampoo since the office was closed at the time. Location was good and staff very nice. Beds are very comfortable and everything was clean.

Where to stay in Downtown Santa Cruz

Find the best Downtown Santa Cruz areas and neighborhoods for the activities you enjoy most. Learn more about Downtown Santa Cruz
This is a small state park at the northern end of Santa Cruz' scenic West Cliff Drive and a little over a mile from the Boardwalk, wharf and Main Beach. A couple of times a year you can see Monarch butterflies during their migration. They are not in the numbers of years past, but you'll still see some. If you walk north towards the rocks during low tide you will find some amazing tidepools full of sea anenomes, sea urchins, starfish, crabs, hermit crabs, and all sorts of marine life. The tidepools are on a ledge, so the tide needs to be quite high

Close the Catalyst, which was the reason for our stay in Santa Cruz. Very clean, well-taken care of property, but the ice machine did not work. Other than that, the stay was great.
