Pete and his wife Kathy are wonderful hosts! They put a lot of work is setting up a lovely and grounding garden, complete with a fire pit, an avocado tree, a pond and canaries and finches!! The room is bright, spacious, cozy and offers the homelike feel you are sometimes looking for when travelling. Great if you want to spend a couple days in Santa Cruz! Pete knows the city so well, he will help you enjoy the city to the fullest!!
