First of all, we were struck by this location's comfortable rooms and family-friendly layout. In Brenden's home, by itself, we had everything we would need for a wonderful time. and then, in addition, there was Santa Cruz and Monterey to explore. Brendan made check-in effortless as we were graciously greeted with snacks and a bottle of prosecco-just what the kids and the grown-ups needed. Unfortunately, the Boardwalk was closed during our stay so we headed to the Monterey Aquarium and Big Sur for a California Coast adventure. Thanks Brenden
