Don't hesitate to book this rental! Thomas was timely and responsive in all electronic communications. The space itself is pleasant inside and out. The thoughtfulness of the hosts was apparent throughout the stay from the lovely garden out front to the helpful laminated notes located throughout the rental. I would actively seek this rental out if I needed to stay in the Soquel/Santa Cruz area again.
Keep in mind cell reception is an issue, so while this was the perfect spot for my purposes, that may be a deal breaker for some travelers.
