Nice place and location. This is a nice three tiered building about a block from the beach. It is a 5-10 minute drive to everything in Santa Cruz. The only thing I would keep in mind is that they are refurbishing the house next door. On Wednesday and Thursday mornings, they started hammering at 7 am. On Friday (the day we left), they didn't start in fully until 8:30. Thus, bring some ear plugs or a noise machine if you want to sleep in.
