Good stay for the price.

I booked this last minute after reading the reviews. Turned out to be a pleasant stay. Very quiet for being sold out. Beds were comfy and the kitchen was convenient. Found the cleanliness exceptional. I had read a couple of negative reviews but found none to be true during my stay.

What A Surprise

This is such a charming little gem that I almost hate to share the property -- especially on event/holiday bookings! This was my first time staying at this rustic hideaway and it was close to everything (yet quiet!), the proprietor and staff were SUPER Santa Cruz friendly and the rooms were clean and well-appointed. The full kitchen, dining and work areas (with a separating door!) makes it perfect for those travelling with kids or extended family to get some space. Any time I am on the Coast, this will definitely be my go to crash pad. Such a treasure!

6/10 Good

Great location, average stay

Close and walkable to the pizzeria, bar and grocery shop so we chose it for proximity. It was reasonable value but with no thick blanket, only a thin sheet, we were cold sleeping.

Israel, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

I was in town for one night and didn't spend much time in the room, but it was clean & spacious. I liked that it was close to where I needed to be, but far enough away to be quiet. The staff was very friendly and I would stay here again.

Lourdes, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Comfortable beds and spacious room with nice tv. WiFi was spotty. One pillow case had lipstick and a boot print on it and one towel was not clean. Quiet space.

Great hotel
Kirsten, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We spent 6 nights here for a visit with family in Soquel. What a great location! We were totally impressed with the room - the size was incredible, bed comfortable, and a fully functional kitchen. We asked for kitchenware at the front desk and got a bin with pots/pans, cleaning supplies and service for two. Went to Dollar Tree for additional supplies and had a well-equipped kitchen for our stay! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here and would recommend it to others!
