The location is easy walking distance to Westcliff Drive along the Pacific ocean, Monterey Bay Natural Marine Sanctuary Exploration Center, Santa Cruz Broadwalk, and old town of Santa Cruz. The hotel is outdated but its location and free parking are huge pluses.

The room was freshly painted, there was no closet or hooks. Aside from that, the room was in great condition. Not far from the boardwalk & dining areas.

The lady that was working was very nice and helpful. The place is in a pretty good location. It is really close to all the things. The rooms are pretty basic. If you are looking for a basic place close to all the stuff with a fair price? This is the place for you.

Great Location worked out just fine
Worked out just fine, great location - staff was nice and accomodating. The rooms are nothing special, just average old school hotel rooms - not a place you hang, but a nice sleep. I would go back again for sure

The location was perfect! Walking distance to the wharf and boardwalk. The property is definitely on the older side, but everything was clean. There’s a steep hill from the street to the rooms with lots of stair for the second floor. The stairs are different heights and you can easily trip is your not paying attention. I would request a first floor room if you have trouble with stairs. Ultimately, it was very convenient and we would stay there again!

Friendly staff. We were able to check in a little early which was nice. Parking was easy. Super convenient location. Easy walk to the beach and the boardwalk! Room was outdated, but clean. And, although they had a fridge and microwave in the room, there was no coffee maker! What hotel doesn’t have one? That was disappointing. After that being said I’d stay there again for location convenience.

The Beachview Inn was so convenient to the wharf and boardwalk. The person at the front desk also told us about the greatest coffee shop (Firefly) that was any easy 5 minute walk. They were in the process of replacing the bathtubs which was the only down side...the drain plug didn't work right in our unit, but did not prevent us from showering. I would highly recommend this Inn. We intend to stay there again on our next trip to Santa Cruz.

Check in and out was a breeze. Amazing location and the price was even better. The lady who helped us was so sweet and even offered help when she saw I was traveling alone with a toddler. Everything is very much outdated and the parking lot was horrible to get in and out. There was an off putting smell in the room. We had to keep the window open to air it out. Overall a good bang for your buck esp when you can just walk to the boardwalk.

I stay at this hotel every time I visit Santa Cruz. Which is a few times a year. I love how close it is to the boardwalk. The staff is always friendly, the rooms are always clean. I dont need much for a hotel room, since I just shower and sleep there. So if you are looking for basic bed, tv, bathroom, microwave and fridge, this is perfect!

Bathroom was dirty, drapes had black mold growing, shower knob was sticky with build up. Green mold on metal shower rod. Bath tub very small and dangerous. Shower temperature control not working properly. T V control very dirty and sticky, so gross.
