    The description led one to believe it would be very different, perched up on a hill, even a cliff. Not so. There is no Ac or ceiling fan. Bed was hard

    The wine and cheese and breakfast were nice. Bathroom was spacious. Nice view.

    Do not stay on the first floor! I was in room number one it was right up against the kitchen and the reception area. It was extremely noisy very early in the morning.

    Absolutely gorgeous!

    Very charming hotel in Santa Cruz with a beach view. It is an old building, but very nicely decorated. The rooms and bathrooms are spacious, clean, they do provide a very good breakfast. Main pier, beach is basically 4-5 minutes walking distance.

    Nothing, it was perfect.

    The whole building was beautiful and impeccably decorated. It was also incredibly easy to follow the instructions in as we checked in while the manager was on her mandated break, when she returned she checked us in fully and could not have been more lovely, it was honestly the highlight of our honeymoon being here, if only for one night.

    It’s a pity that the Inn gets a concrete block in front of the sea - but the view to Cornell beach is still amazing

    The inn is located in an old Victorian house - and it was beautiful renovated and furnished. The renovation was done carefully so that spirit of the Victorian style didn’t get lost while habe modern and comfortable features.

    Very minor fix, most of the very large bedroom windows don’t stay open, perhaps provide a wood block to keep these magnificent windows open and or add a ceiling fan.

    Absolutely amazing Inn, staff very friendly and helpful. Breathtaking views, fireplace in the room, wow factor bathroom with jacuzzi tub for two as well oversized shower. Love the outdoor porch.

    We loved this property- everything from the location (across the street from the beach/wharf but still within view from the room) to the staff (very friendly and helpful) to the extra touches that made our stay special (drinks and cookies upon welcome, a cheese and wine reception in the afternoon). We also enjoyed the breakfast, which had mostly cold options with one rotating hot option. The room was beautiful as well! Nothing bad to say, we would recommend :)

    Bed is really high and not that comfortable. Ditto the pillows. Breakfast was a disappointment. Advertised a discount for Roaring Camp railroad but the code didn’t work

    A beautiful historic property with superb views across the beach and wharf at Santa Cruz from a wonderful terrace. Cheese and wine for guests daily - a lovely touch .

    The breakfast is unique with new options made on-site every day, the facilities have a lot of character and everything was very clean; the location is close to the boardwalk but still feels separate and quiet; they put us into a room on the first night that did not really suit our needs as a family, but everyone was super helpful and they managed to put us into a different room without any issues the next day.
