Very good
All reviews shown are from real guest experiences. Only travellers who have booked a stay with us can submit a review. We verify reviews according to our guidelines and publish all reviews, positive or negative.
Everything was great, We would have given 5 stars except the pool heater was broken and the water was super cool. However we were able to use another Hotel's pool that was heated, but it was about a 8 min drive away.
The staff is great so friendly helpful and engaging. The building is fine and clean. Even the safety in the parking lot has security. Just the location made it so there were multiple police activity issues with sirens all night long challenging sleep.
We had a great experience here. We arrived around 11:30pm and there were two staff members at the front desk ready to check us in. They were both very friendly and helpful. The breakfast was good overall. I did wish they offered bacon in addition to sausage but otherwise it was good. The indoor pool is really tiny but my kids still loved it and said it was awesome. I usually sleep very poorly in hotel beds but found these to be very comfy. Also appreciated the full size shampoo, conditioner and body wash in the shower. Overall a great stay at an affordable rate. We will definitely stay again when we visit Santa Cruz again. Thanks to the friendly staff for a great stay!
We were on a very busy road and the windows were very poorly insulated. Would not stay here again as most rooms face either the highway and/or a major intersection.
Other than the fire alarm ringing from 1am to 4am it’s was a nice stay. Rooms was surprisingly clean and spacious. The General Manager refunded the night out of curtesy. Breakfast was nice. I would give this place a second chance only by the empathy and great customer service of the GM.
My stay was awful! The fire alarm went off from 3am to 5am and no one had any answers. We had to sleep in our car just to get some rest! It was ridiculous, no one said anything.
