“I noted the hotel's central location near Santa Cruz's bus terminals and the town center. The open-plan restaurant seems a key feature, and those balcony double rooms, equipped with air conditioning and a fridge, appeal to me. I think it's a convenient base for exploring the area, and I appreciate the mention of lively local spots nearby.”
