This was a perfect place to stop as we passed though Santa Cruz. Dianne did a great job of communicating with us and we felt very cozy in her studio. Because I was moving, I had a lot of valuables in my car. This would not be a place I would actively choose to leave my car on the street. There is an abandoned house directly next door along with an empty lot. It’s a little deserted on this block but it was a short walk to downtown Santa Cruz where we enjoyed dinner. There was also no fridge (just an FYI for sparkling wine drinkers like ourselves).
