Location and price are worth it all. Rooms are a great size, bathroom/shower is lovely. There was no room clean during our two nights there, not sure why.

I had low expectations and they were met. Basic, reasonably clean place for a weary traveler to rest his/her head. Wouldn’t want to do anything but sleep there. Location is good, and among crazy pricey Santa Cruz hotels, it was the cheapest. But I still can’t believe I had pay what I did for what I got.
The rooms we stayed in have been remodeled. Overall the room was nice. This location is family owned. The guy at the desk was very nice and gave us lots of info. Parking was fine as there was always a place to park. The boardwalk was within walking distance from our room. We will definately stay here again. Thank you
They say check-in times at 3 o’clock, but we have to wait till 630 for them to allow us to go into the room
The staff was very helpful. They brought us a iron to iron our clothes
The parking situation was fine wasn’t crowded
Other than that, the day was adequate and also really close to the boardwalk which we did appreciate
Floors needed a good mopping. Just overall feels meh. Staff was really lovely though.

Room was clean had microwave and fridge as advertised. Also a TV. The drywall was a little rough. Very noisy traffic, but no fault of the owners. Thankfully it quieted down at night. Good place for a short stay.
Parking was good. No ice machine. We had to cross the street to a neighbor super 8 motel for ice. 2 flat pillows per bed only. Room was floor was sandy. Bathroom exhaust wasn’t working. Stuffy cause the ac unit wasn’t cooling.

Nice clean and convenient and short walking distance from boardwalk
While the location is great and the price is right, we chose this hotel because of the reviews that showed high ratings by couples. There was nothing about the property or our room that were romantic or couples related. The room didn't even have a blow dryer so we had to go to the office with wet hair to ask for one. It's just super basic and not super clean. If you don't plan on spending much time in the room and don't like to hang out at the property, it's probably fine.
Very clean room fridge and microwave was a great addition quiet area, staff was helpful and friendly and location was perfect close to all the major attractions walkable
