I like to be honest when reviewing places I have stayed. Prior to booking I read some pretty nasty reviews of this hotel. It wasn’t the nicest place I have stayed in, but it was clean, convenient and well priced. I needed a bed and bathroom, and that is what I got. It wasn’t as bad as some of the reviews I read before booking. It’s location was perfect for my trip. I was visiting a friend and he was about 5 minutes from there. I will stay there again if I have another trip to Santa Cruz
