We were genuinely welcomed by the wonderful employee the late afternoon that we checked in. She was very helpful. The room was comfortable and we absolutely loved the fact that the wharf, and other restaurants were all within a short walking distance, meaning that we didn't have to take our car and try to find some parking. We would definitely stay here again.

We have no complaints, other than the pillows weren't soft enough and the bed kept coming undone each night because instead of a bottom sheet, there was a flat sheet used instead.

Wonderful stay! Totally updated rooms since the last time I was there. The hostess was so sweet and accommodating! 2 min walk to the beach, and yet tucked away behind beautiful eucalyptus trees! Loved the breakfast options, boiled eggs, toast, bagels, coffee, juice, milk, hot and cold cereals, fruits, and waffle maker was a bonus. So was the large privately situated hot tub!

A few homeless people were living in the bushes there along the driveway going down to the beach, but we felt safe nevertheless.

- This hotel was a pretty close walk to the boardwalk & pier. If you have a wagon or stroller, you do have a short detour, but the walk is around 5 minutes only. - The room was clean. - There was a microwave & fridge in the room. - Beds were comfortable and clean.

- Limited breakfast options - Limited parking - Shower water pressure was weak! - There were only small trashcans in the room & no extra trash bags were provided.

Just to get it out of the way, the rooms are tiny. One of the smaller hotels I have ever stayed in. But I didn't go to Santa Cruz for the hotel. I went for the beach/boardwalk. The room had enough room to sleep in, was clean, and was close to the beach. Just don't expect a 500 sq foot room and you'll be happy.

Everything was great. Rooms are small, but I'm not doing yoga in my hotel rooms, so it didn't bother me.

We had an issue with the A/C in our room on an unusually warm afternoon, and the manager was able to accommodate us into another room which was much more comfortable. The hospitality was very much appreciated as the only room she could move us to was an upgraded room that definitely would have cost more. The location can't be beat, close to food, the wharf, and the boardwalk. Thanks again HoJo!

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!

I can't complain about anything!

Room was as advertised just like the pictures shown with ocean view. Nice color scheme. Beds were comfortable. Loved having a private patio to hang out and enjoy the view. Staff was friendly. Location was perfect to get around by foot from food, to wharf, to beach and to the boardwalk.

Hot tub/Spa area gloomy and dark. Tub was covered. Did not look welcoming. Very dated. No pool.

The front desk staff was very welcoming. The hotel guests like older couples were welcoming compared to other hotels I’ve been to (Monterey, San Francisco, etc.). My girlfriend and I enjoyed laying in the jacuzzi and having a decent amount of breakfast options (would recommend adding breakfast sausages, sliced ham, or bacon). It’s a nice downhill walk to the pier and boardwalk. We’d love to stay here again.

The bed is hard but it seemed to not bother my lingering hip and back issues. The curtain in our suite is torn and needs to be replaced.

Room was clean and decent, great location, good price for area. King room with balcony and ocean view was nice to have a balcony, would of been better to actually see the ocean

Suppose to be an ocean view but we were on the bottom floor abd really looked out towards thw ocean and saw buildings. Hot tub only.had half the jets working. Bed was super stiff.

Breakfast had all the basic morning essentials to get the family started for the day ahead. It’s such an easy walk to the boardwalk. It was a perfect room and location for us.

The room was small but it worked perfect since we needed a room only to sleep in since we wanted to spend most of our time exploring the town and area.
