The GOOD: Location. This place is right near the boardwalk/beach. You can walk to PACIFIC AVE to get a bite to eat. It's in a quiet part of town on a sleepy little street.
The BAD: Like many places in Santa Cruz, this little bungalow is VERY dated. The house is drafty, susceptible to the cold. The hardwood floors are uneven and VERY squeaky. The bedroom is in the front room. A room with several windows and a loose fitting door.
The UGLY: The bathroom. The tub drains SLOWLY. Taking a shower means standing in ankle deep water. I'm a big guy with broad shoulders. I couldn't take a shower without the curtain clinging to me. Getting into and out the tub is SKETCHY. You need to BE CAREFUL.
I stayed here for two nights. With all of the taxes and cleaning fees, it cost almost $700. That's quite a bit of money for the value I feel I received.
