The valet service was nice. The pool was amazing and was also heated. The kids loved it and did not want to leave. Would definitely be coming back next time. The boardwalk is about a 6 minute walk.

The location is excellent -- it's walking distance to downtown and a trail that leads to the Boardwalk. The room was clean and spacious and the king size bed and pillows were very comfortable. Self-parking is also available for an additional charge and very close to the hotel.

    I loved the bumper cars! Haven't done that in decades.

    I loved the bumper cars! Haven't done that in decades. There's a train tour that stops at the boardwalk. The Santa Clara river is nearby which has a sunny walkway next to it. I was able to walk from my motel to the Boardwalk. Stopped for lunch at a family-owned Mexican restaurant. Homey and affordable.

    Unfortunately the rides were closed but the restaurants were open across on the wharf. It was nice that you could sit inside and outside. Outside they had the tiki heaters going and it made it have a nice warm atmosphere while eating.

    Love Santa Cruz and San Jose area.

    Love Santa Cruz and San Jose area. Have done all the wonderful touristy things in the past. Beautiful scenery fun all around. This trip was just college hunting for my grandson. He finally narrowed to University of Washington or UC Santa Cruz , he decided on Santa Cruz.

    The location is perfect, quaint, cozy, convenient and they have their own coffee shop, bakery and private parking. Put your mind at ease and go have fun and enjoy. Everyone at the front desk were very friendly, courteous and informative of weekend and current events. We're looking forward to coming back and seeing the progress of the area, visit and explore this hidden treasure which is Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk.

    Beautiful clean room, comfy bed, good size. 7 minutes walk from Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk. Food and shopping all in walking distance. I woke up not feeling well (an ongoing issue for me). Checked out at 11am, drove just a couple of minutes and realized I wouldn't be safe driving. I pulled over, called the hotel and they were able to get me a new room immediately! I will definitely come back here again 🩷😊🩷😊🩷 Very nice and welcoming staff. Thank you!
