Skip's place in Soquel is a great launching spot for travelers wanting to explore all the nooks and crannies of the Santa Cruz region, located as it is close to the beaches of Capitola as well as a short, scenic drive to East Side Santa Cruz. As a Banana Slug, I found it a pleasant surprise to learn more about how this quiet area is connected to the city of Santa Cruz which I am more familiar with. I highly recommend Skip's room, as he is a gracious and gregarious host who really makes his guests feel welcome!
