Sam (owner and front desk) was great! Rooms are well renovated! Lobby and exterior need some updating, but they are currently doing lots of work to update it. Right next to the Boardwalk and incredibly convenient.

The location was a five minute walk to Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk. The bathroom glass walk in shower was my favorite feature. Although the room was extremely small it was very clean and comfy bed! I would stay here again next time I visit Santa Cruz!!

10/10

We enjoyed very much of our 2 nights stay at this place. Staff were very polite and helpful, we arrived about 2 hrs earlier than expected for check-in, and still were able to get a room. The room was perfect for us, with a small area inside that we can park our three bikes. We walked about 12 minutes to Broadwalk and wharf.

Just remodeled hotel. We were the first to use room after remodeling

Great location. Parking is available but limited and the room is clean. Only complaint is the curtains are to short and don’t close Al the way so at night if lights are on you can see inside the room
1-night trip

8/10

Reasonably clean and a great location a couple blocks from the Boardwalk. All on street parking is restricted to permit holders, so there is not enough parking. Reasonable price for the location. It is an older small hotel but OKAY for the area.

Property is currently going through renovations but my wife and I were impressed with the remodeled rooms. Felt like you were living in your own 2 bedroom studies. We will definitely continue to stay here in the future.

Typical “motel” property in Santa Cruz. Run down and no frills. But clean and a comfortable bed in a great location near boardwalk.
