My wife and I had a fantastic time staying in Sita's studio apartment. The location couldn't be any better. Just a few short blocks to the promenade that goes along the bay, overlooking the water dotted with hundreds of surfers, stunning sunrises and sunsets, the whole scene makes for an iconic Santa Cruz experience. And the hot tub back at Sita's isn't bad either. :-)
If you've never been to Santa Cruz before, I would highly recommend it.
