Marilyn’s place was exactly what I needed for a few nights on my California road trip. It was clean and cozy and just a short drive into town. I was here solo but the place is definitely big enough to accommodate more people as it has a large bed and a loft space with room to sleep as well. She was very communicative throughout my stay— especially when the power went out in the neighborhood (it was extremely brief and didn’t interrupt my stay at all!). I would absolutely consider staying here again if I’m ever coming through Santa Cruz.
