“This hotel stands out for its prime beachfront location and exceptionally helpful staff, creating a welcoming atmosphere reminiscent of staying with family. While it forgoes the amenities of a large chain, such as an on-site restaurant, its updated and super clean rooms and proximity to local dining options present a compelling alternative. It's an ideal choice for those seeking a personalized, boutique experience on the Santa Cruz Boardwalk.”
