Reviews and Ratings
The hotel is in a truly lovely area close to everything, making it very convenient. The rooms were not as clean and fresh as expected, especially with three young children, which was a bit of a letdown. The service was good with available shops and laundry, but could be more attentive. Overall, it's decent for the price, but some areas need improvement.
I stayed at this hotel with my three young children, and while it wasn't the freshest in terms of cleanliness and the towels weren't well replenished, it was still a decent stay. The location was great as it was close to everything we needed, but it was lacking in certain services like shops and commercial amenities. The dining options were varied with a bunch of different choices, including poultry for those who prefer it. Overall, it was a decent stay but could use some improvements.
My stay at the hotel was overall pleasant. The rooms were not as clean and freshened up with new towels as I would have liked, especially with my three young children, but the location was excellent, close to Santa Cruz boardwalk and Henry Cowell Park. The dining options were good, with a variety of choices, including a vegetarian option, but the service was lacking in terms of commercial services like laundry.
