8.2/10 Very Good! (77 reviews)

Staff was amazing, Adriana and Seth were very hospitable and super kind/very nice to talk to. Adriana explained some history with the artwork that is displayed around the home, Seth gave great recommendations for nearby things to do. Breakfast was really nice. Room was very clean and tidy. Very charming place to stay, I initially wanted a hotel but was very impressed by what the stay was like here. Would recommend for a nice weekend getaway to Santa Cruz.
