I have to say that this has been my best experience staying in Santa Cruz, the Victorian Cottage was perfect and Khristina was a fantastic host attending to our every need. I was in town for my daughter's graduation from UCSC and my only regret is that I didn't find this cottage when she was a freshman. The cottage is located in a very quiet residential neighborhood just steps from the ocean. This will be my number one choice for lodging when I return to Santa Cruz thanks to Khristina.
