Pete was a very gracious host (along with his wife) and made everything very easy for us. The room was private and comfortable. The garden area outside our room is very beautiful and relaxing with a wide variety of plants. We loved using the bikes around the area and checking out the ocean nearby. He also makes great coffee for the morning! The location is great and nearby many fun areas in Santa Cruz. My husband and Pete had some common interests as well which made it more fun. Thanks for helping to make the birthday trip for my husband so nice.
