I was clean, nice and somewhat secluded being found off of a neighborhood but just off the freeway. We primarily came because of the dog friendly and trying to get away from the fireworks since Santa Cruz County has a not fireworks ordinance.

Not much, ppl seemed friendly, we saw other dogs and the partying was kept pretty low key for New Year's Eve and a live band playing. Would have like to maybe spend another night but had personal obligations to get back to in the Bay Area.

The location is very centralized between Watsonville and Santa Cruz. Very easy to get in and out of, close to the freeway. Close to a grocery store, Peets coffee and other shops. The restaurant has a very good breakfast, also has a bar and live music on the weekends. We got lucky and had a room with two bathrooms. Over all a good stay.

We had a room on the parking lot side and got a little noisy from vehicles starting up in the early morning hours. Also people were noisy when coming out of the lounge. I would have liked a room facing the pool/garden area next time. Lastly, the bed was on the soft side as well as the pillows.

I live in Aptos and wanted to put my uncle and his daughter, my cousin, in a fun, nice hotel for them to have a few days fun in the sun during her spring break. The atmosphere, the amenities, guests' social behaviors, staff, and location i have not seen in Santa Cruz County in the coast region for the price. I attribute this to the owner's effots and attitudes towards hospitality management after learning that the hotel is franchised and individually owned by location. Great spot. Support owner's and operators like this so they thrive, and we as consumers have better potions.

Can't say.

Swimming pool and hot tub was lovely. Gardens and surrounding areas were so well kept Clean and tidy rooms

The cost of dining at the hotel was pretty expensive! Maybe need a new way of opening a tab for drinks and food to the room number as we got landed with a breakfast bill upon checkout, that wasn’t even ours!

grounds and facilities were very nice although lighting in the room could be better. Ordered room service for a bday celebration expecting it to be delivered in real plates, instead the meals were boxed and delivered in a brown paper bag so that was a let down. the food was really good though, presentation could have been better especially since they charge extra for room service. Really enjoyed the breakfast, everything we ordered was good, it was so relaxing to hear the waterfall as we dined and the kids really enjoyed the koi pond

Cute little hotel that was small but effective. Great location just 3 mins away by car to the beach and popular ice cream shop, Marianne's, and pizza shop, Pizza My Heart. Classic Santa Cruz.

The restaurant was popular: wait times were up to 45 minutes to get seated for dinner. Breakfast was easier to get seated though we waited so long for our food one morning that the staff comped some of our food to offset the 45 min wait time.

The landscaping was great, as well as the pool area. The room we had was spacious, but no outdoor space to access from our room. We used the gym (very small, but new and efficient). The location was perfect, for our purposes. The staff members we encountered were exceptional!

Short of towels at pool and room. We were given a fresh set of towels one day, but not the next despite the contact who said they would send them up.

Very relaxed setting that was close to our son and his family which was the purpose of our visit. Property is very clean and comfortable. Food and beverage was good. There were some service delays due to limited staff availability. Staff were very friendly and accommodating, yet sometimes rushed due to number of patrons. This is a great property!

Service delays were troubling but could tell staff were trying hard to be helpful.

Room was walking distance to Safeway, Rite Aid, Shops, Ace Hardware, Gas, Freeway ,, beach was 1.2 miles. Off ramp was State Park DR.. We loved the pool area,, clean towels.. Jaccuzi, BAR, Restaurant. HOTEL was amazing.. Quiet. Clean Affordable. AMAZING .

Staff seemed over worked and took ages to get served, some sitting for half an hour for service. Sad.

Everything was amazing. Location was perfect and the property was cute and clean. I loved that you have to use your key card to even enter the buildings. Made me feel safe and secure. The restaurant and bar was great and staff is very helpful.

I didn’t like that there weren’t any microwaves, it’s nice to have them in the room to heat breakfast/leftovers.
