This is a great place to stay when visiting Santa Cruz. The place is conveniently located (we drove no more than ten minutes to get anywhere). Parking is in back, so no worries about finding a place to park. The main room is very light and spacious, and an easy place just to hang out and relax. The is a small patio where you can have meals, if you feel like eating outside. Jim and Lisa were super hosts. They asked what snacks my little boys liked, and then had a big basket of goodies ready for them when we arrived. The place is very clean and could not have been more comfortable. Definitely a find!
