Stayed here for a few days while dropping my daughter off at UC Santa Cruz. It's just a 15 minute drive to UCSC. My experience with hotels in Santa Cruz is that they are crowded, over-priced and often not in a good neighborhood, so tried something new. Although this place is right across from the beach, it feels pretty remote. Davenport is very small (one light town with just a few restaurants, a convenience store) -so it feels like you're in the countryside. Michael's apartment is clean and comfortable, and a little quirky, in an artsy, funky way. It's essentially a 2 bedroom apartment, which is much better than a hotel room if one of you is a loud snorer :-) Communication with Michael was clear and prompt, and everything was as advertised. Definitely recommended!
