Kerstin’s place is the perfect size for a place to stay while exploring Santa Cruz. Her home is located in a quiet, homey neighborhood and is a perfect distance from all the tourist spots as nothing is too far away—about a 10 minute drive for most places. Kerstin is a wonderful host and is there for you if ya need any help and just wants to make your stay as great as possible. Would definitely stay with her again if I return to Santa Cruz in the future.
