This property has wonderful and helpful staff, that respond as best they can to your needs. The positives were kind staff and great location in Santa Cruz. Rooms are in need of upgrades and repair. I changed rooms due to dripping a/c. My biggest concern was the last 5 days I did not feel it was safe to use the pool due to its murky waters and floating/sinking unknown materials. I was told each day it would be cleaned, then told it was clean but they were missing a chemical. That was unacceptable to me. I would not return to this hotel, or recommend it.
