Michael and Ashley’s place is the perfect close to downtown, quiet neighborhood -home away from home ! The place is set up to enter the front door and is a lovely peaceful room with with a full bath room and all the amenities and brochures and tips for local activities and eateries. Snacks of apples and granola bars and water were left out for me to enjoy ! I arrived short notice as it was a last minute get a way for me but the response was super quick and getting checked it and settled in very easy . For me - a perfect easy trip to visit my son : ) - a lovely private room in the front corner of the house in beautiful Santa Cruz - perfect place , wonderful hosts - thoughtful and available- but my privacy was respected and it felt quite homey : ) highly recommended !
