This is nicely update and clean rental that has everything you need. It is very small. You are paying for the location, which is excellent. It is walking distance to surfing at Pleasure Point, a small beach, and a lovely coastal boardwalk type stroll that takes you to 41st Street where there are some shops and restaurants (Zameen is definitely the best food in that area, and Cat and Cloud is a great coffee spot). The unit itself feels a little boxed in since it is underneath a main house, so it wasn't exactly somewhere we wanted to hang out, but it's fine if you're out and about enjoying Santa Cruz all day and eve. As mentioned in the description, you can definitely hear people above you. Aside from being small and boxed in, it is a very nice little unit in an excellent location.
