Nice stay
Cute little hotel RIGHT off the freeway (very convenient). Quick drive to UCSC and downtown. Quiet, cozy. Was confusing to find the front desk but had to walk through the outdoor patio/restaurant and there it was! Parking was easy and free!

Would stay there again.
It was a nice quiet place. All single level. Was perfect since I have a bad knee. Easy parking and right off the freeway exit. Minutes to the beach area. Very roomy shower. Toilet is very close to the wall and bathroom door. We enjoyed the courtyard. There is a nice bar and grill on the property as well.

It's a good and inexpensive option if you just need a night to crash. Beds are comfortable, rooms and bathrooms clean. Will stay there again as close enough to UCSC

The area around the location is so lovely and peaceful. The inn provided easy accessible parking right outside our room. Being only a few minutes away from downtown Santa Cruz was a huge plus!

Gave my room away.
My family and myself went on vacation and when we arrived at the hotel the pool was out of order. Then when I got my room it was not what I booked. I booked a king suite with a fireplace. What I got was two queen suite with no fireplace. When I went back to the front desk the girl told me that they gave my room away and this is all they had. I was so mad about this, I almost left. She said the manager gave my room away and the manager was not there. The room itself was dirty. The bathroom had left over hair on the floor and walls. Overall I was very disappointed!

Great location, close to the city, but feels like you're in the woods (you are). Room was clean, updated and comfortable. The coffee in the lobby was good.
