We had a great stay in Santa Cruz. This is an ideal location. Shelby was great and quick to respond to any needs. She let us borrow some bikes and we rode to the wharf and boardwalk. Very easy and fun ride along the coast. The place is walking distance to a great coffee spot as well as a brewery and market. Nice comfortable place to see Santa Cruz. We used it also as a home base for visiting Big Sur, Carmel, and Monterey.
