I highly recommend staying here, as it honestly feels like a quintessential Santa Cruz experience. You’re right in the middle of everything. The house is well-maintained, thoughtfully decorated, and absolutely huge. Shared communal spaces are truly lovely. The house, on the whole, has great vibes. I already miss it. There’s plenty of storage room to unpack your things for an extended stay, and it was never an issue sharing a bathroom with others on my floor. Best of all (in my opinion), there’s a bathtub downstairs if your nerves are frayed from a long flight!
