Gail's cottage is nice and in a perfect location for Santa Cruz. We were however a little disappointed to find that the cottage was not cleaned from the previous guest. There were used beach towels and sheets on the floor and the kitchen and bathroom garbage were full. It was good that we brought our own sheets and towels because we wouldn't have had clean ones as the towel/bedding was not restocked. Also, we found some ants in both the kitchen and the bathroom- not a crazy number but it may become a nuisance if left untouched.
