Unclean place. Poorly managed. Last resort
This place was definitely not up kept to standards. Either they don't clean the room at all or just don't care enough to clean the whole room. It has great potential and was a spacious room with a nice deck but as said, thumbs down for management.Checked for bed bugs and don't think there were any. Sheets at least seemed clean. Everything else was a horror show. Here's some things that come to mind:¿¿- Dirty floor. Found multiple peices of food wrappers, scraps, and who knows what else under the sink, closet, and smaller places. All areas that could easily be vacuumed but haven't!¿¿- Metal tissue holder rusted and old looking¿¿- While looking under the sink on the floor for scraps as stated above my arm rubbed against the bottom part of the sink. It was as sticky as honey or glue were my arm touched. I needed to thoroughly wash whatever it was off.¿¿- TV remote half worked.¿¿- Deck door hard to open. Seems broken.I'm sure there was more but don't remember or haven't seen.Overall this place is run down. It needs upgrading and REAL cleaning. Not worth the price at all.I've stayed at places with a shared bathroom that looked much cleaner than this!Only go if desperate but be prepared.Also not sure if this would be a concern to anyone but the manager was saying how they were getting new carpets. But all these new carpets were being kept outside were parking is. If you get fresh new carpets wouldnt you want to keep them clean inside?!

Good & bad
First of all the location was great just a 5 minute walk to the boardwalk not to bad, service desk great, the problem was they gave us our rooms but they weren't even cleaned yet when we went to use the restrooms there was no running water which they forgot to tell us when we checked in when we came back a couple hours later are rooms were clean but our toilets were still not flushed the owner had to come up with a plunger to fix them. No air conditioning or heater we had little kids & they were cold at night. When we came to rest we opened the sliding door to get air & all you could hear was traffic so noisy we coulndt even sleep. If you don't care about the noise I guess the rest wasn't to bad. :;(

Awfull!!
We stayed there as we were desperate to find somewhere after a long drive.....I wish we had gone that little bit further. The room was noisy and not very clean. Difficult to get back to once we left to go out for the evening, ended driving around Santa Cruz trying to find it again. The hotel owner said it was a 10 minute walk to the wharf.....Luckily we chose to drive as I would say it would be at least half an hour!!!! Worse place we stayed in...... A no smoking hotel with cigarette burns everywhere in the room!!

Don't do it!
This is possibly the worst hotel I have ever stayed in...ever! The beds were horrible- we got NO sleep. It was loud, the lights didn't work in the room. (They were fixed, but seriously-the power cord was cut!) The balcony had 1 dirty plastic chair on it AND we were "showered" on by rowdy folks upstairs urinating off of their balcony into ours!! DISGUSTING!!! To top it off, the help at the front desk tried to get us to pay MORE as we were leaving! Really??? YUCK!!Spend a little extra and get a decent place to stay!
