"We have been to Santa Cruz many time in the past 25 years and have stayed all over when we go. This property had 3 queen beds in a room! Super convenient and so nice for all 3 of us to have our own bed. I cannot say enough awesome things about the staff. The cleaning staff and front desk were all very nice and helpful. The cleaning lady found my son’s watch and they called us to let us know as we were leaving. How cool and honest is that :) Check in was easy and the room was clean. Heater/AC...

"The motel was quiet and clean and safe. The room was a little overpriced, pretty small for 2 beds but good enough. The expedia page says "Coffee and tea in common areas". There was no coffee, and the common area was locked. No one was there when I checked out at 8:30 AM and needed to ask about my deposit. That doesn't qualify as a "24-hour front desk". Also, there was no mention about a $50 deposit other than a handwritten note taped to the glass which I didn't notice until after the card...

"Perfect place to stay. Walking distance to everything. Great attention to detail in the unit. Nicely decorated. The shower, was amazing. Water pressure was excellent. The shower is located in the hallway so you don’t have to disturb anyone in the bedrooms. Parking for two cars was a bonus, since there is plenty of people checking out the pier which made parking limited. We can’t wait to stay there again. "
