A great spot for my family to stop on our way home from a week of camping in Northern California. We enjoyed the hot showers, making a meal in the kitchen, and grabbing breakfast at the bakery next door in the morning. Michael gave clear directions for arrival, and contacted me immediately about a piece of jewelry I accidentally left behind. I loved the overall laid-back Santa Cruz vibe. If you like pristine, clean accommodations this probably won't be your cup of tea. If you are interested in a soulful place next to the ocean with opportunities to hang-out in private or open your windows and doors to the communal space out back, then Michael's spot is great!
