As my trip to Homies Hideaway was my first experience using Airbnb, I was unsure of what to fully expect. But this little home was greater than what I imagined. The space is quiet, private, and relaxing, yet it is so central to great restaurants and shopping. We walked to dinner almost every night we were there. Homer and Claudia were great hosts who were very easy to communicate with, provided great suggestions for things to do and places to eat, and even had bikes for us to borrow. I would recommend their “hideaway” to anyone looking to stay in Santa Cruz!
