Melissa’s place was awesome! It is located near all the action on the west side of Santa Cruz, but is in a quiet neighborhood. The back looks out onto a wooded ravine with lots of wildlife! Communication with Melissa was great! She responded quickly to our questions. Guapo was fun to have with us. He is a very loving cat. The place was clean & comfortable. The kitchen had plenty of dishes, pots & utensils. The bed is very comfortable. Plenty of towels & even a towel warmer! I would definitely recommend Melissa’s place!
