We had a room on the pool side and it was lovely! Rooms on the opposite side face the highway. It is quaint and our two room suite was very spacious-slept 4 easily with the pull out couch.

The property has been posted in such a way that it disguise that it is a hotel but the reality is that it is a motel. And as a simple motel it is very expensive.

The property and staff were wonderful! The downside was when i booked through Expedia (2 rooms), the Inn only had my reservation as 1 room (Expedia's fault)!
Thankfully the Inn had another room available and booked it for me at the same cost as the first room- exceptional!

Loved it here, right off the freeway and it feels secluded but very close to downtown Santa Cruz. The restaurant was great and very convenient to have there. High ceilings in the room made it feel spacious and very clean!

Everything was excellent. Room clean and smelled clean. Very quiet. No people noise or street noise.
But... the only but was a dirty sock behind the door. Someone else's sock of course.
Everything else was good.

Similar to a lodge! The room was great and the property felt as if we were in the country. Some reciptionist were inattentive leading to poor customer service. But there were some that had great customer service. 50/50 on the customer service.

Nice stay
Cute little hotel RIGHT off the freeway (very convenient). Quick drive to UCSC and downtown. Quiet, cozy. Was confusing to find the front desk but had to walk through the outdoor patio/restaurant and there it was! Parking was easy and free!

It's a good and inexpensive option if you just need a night to crash. Beds are comfortable, rooms and bathrooms clean. Will stay there again as close enough to UCSC

Would stay there again.
It was a nice quiet place. All single level. Was perfect since I have a bad knee. Easy parking and right off the freeway exit. Minutes to the beach area. Very roomy shower. Toilet is very close to the wall and bathroom door. We enjoyed the courtyard. There is a nice bar and grill on the property as well.
