If you are going ti visit Santa Cruz this is your best bet. The rooms are clean the staff is helpful and the price is always good, higher on the weekends during summer but never overpriced like most other hotels in the area.

####  2 Continental Inn’s With Split personalities 

There are 2 Continental Inn’s in Santa Cruz. The one with the cheaper rooms is dark, and old. The other one has a pool and other amenities. Apparently the customers on our side are never told about the facilities across the street. Nor is there any indication that these properties are connected. Cleaning service was very good.

The room was clean and comfy. We stayed 2 nights. Easy to check in and out. The pool situation was a little weird as its across the street. It was nice and private. It could use a good scrubbing though. I'd stay there again.
