Evan and Anja’s place is wonderful - would absolutely recommend to anyone who wants an inviting and central place to stay while in the Santa Cruz/Capitola area. The space is perfect for two people and we were very comfortable during our stay. It is no more than 12 minutes from the boardwalk and around 10 from Capitola, a perfectly located area. Evan was around while we were there and he was so friendly and great to talk to. He shared some of his delicious bread with us and we were so grateful. We took advantage of the hot tub and the aquarium passes while there, both of which were such great and valued amenities to have! The cat was also so sweet. Like the description says, this place is not for privacy - other than your room, you are sharing the space with Evan and Anja, but it was such a pleasure to share the space since Evan was such a hospitable person. An amazing space for 2 to stay during a weekend in the Santa Cruz area.
