Elegant building in central location for everything

Liked:A beautiful old building with communal outside seating space. Lovely room and good facilities. Location wise it was close to both the beach and downtown. Manager was friendly and helpful.
Disliked:Good door lock security but a bit fiddly to use.

Comfortale with glitches

Liked:Easy parking off street. Quiet, central location, and close to the Santa Cruz Warriors arena. Nice modern bathroom. Soft mattress, but not uncomfortable. Completely remodeled Victorian, but don't expect period style furnishings. The decor is standard hotel style.
Disliked:Check-in time was 3:00 PM. No staff was on duty at 3:10 PM. There was a sign on the front desk with a number to call. It took four phone calls for a staff member to arrive well over an hour later. Guests can self-check out before 9:00 AM. No staff was on duty until about 9:40 AM. Whatever the reason, not acceptable.
