Everything about staying at Carla’s place was wonderful. Communication and check in was a breeze considering it was a last minute reservation for a week. Her mother who lives on the property greeted me upon arrival and showed me a few particular things about the space. It’s very quiet and private and beautiful. I had everything I needed for, my remote work and exploration of Santa Cruz. The gas stove kept it cozy. I appreciated the well appointed kitchen since I cook a lot. The bed was very comfortable and everything was extremely clean. It’s like new! I would definitely stay there again and recommend it to anyone wanting a quiet private place near downtown.
