We are glad we chose Hallie’s place. The house is cozy and comfortable. I worked in the small desk inside the bedroom and my wife worked in the dining table, and both were perfect for us. We loved to have lunch at the back patio; I wish it would be better maintained, because it is such a beautiful place to hang out. Whole Foods and Rite Aid are very close, very convenient to buy groceries. There are also a couple of restaurants around: Italian, vegan, a poke place. Whenever we come back to Santa Cruz, we will stay in this charming place again!
