Steph really stands out to me as one with considerable integrity. I booked to stay at her place for 2 nights, but had some allergies to her cats the first night then scrambled the next day to find another place and moved there. I wrote her and let her know what happened and she offered me a refund for the second evening. I found this to be VERY generous and gracious of her as I had known about the cat prior to booking the property. Thanks for that Steph.
Regarding the property, it was very clean and cozy. Looks just like the photos. Location is great, near to the main downtown area of Santa Cruz. Don't think you'll be disappointed. If I didn't have an allergy to Spooky or he was more canine than feline, I'd definitely stay again!
