Loved the place, very close to the boardwalk and our host's had great restaurant recommendations! The best food I've had on my trip so far. The only negatives would be that the windows don't open so it got a little warm at night even with the fan and the mattress was pretty stiff, but those are personal preferences and a mattress pad could easily fix one of them :) . Overall was happy with my stay and think it is a great spot for a one day stop in Santa Cruz!
