As soon as I walked in, I fell in love with this property. My friend and I even joked about buying it for ourselves.
It's on the third floor of an apartment complex. I didn't like hauling my bag up the stairs, but once you enter the property you'll find it's a very beautiful and well kept space. There is a professional cleaning service that takes care of shop. It was sparkling clean. The environment was also stylish, with mostly updated appliances. I appreciated that there was enough furniture because in some rentals they give you the bare minimum - no end tables or coffee tables to put stuff on. One thing I noticed is that it wasn't as big in size as the photos made it out to be, but by no means at all is it too small.
There is parking available in the complex or you can just park on the street, and both are equally convenient. The neighborhood was extremely quiet, not too close to downtown Santa Cruz. One thing we liked was the fireplace, as we stayed in January. It was easy to use and warmed us right up.
I did have one problem with this property. I didn't like was the fact that there were ants in the kitchen. I woke up in the morning after my first night to discover that the donuts I left next to the kitchen sink were covered in ants. They all had to be thrown away. After this, I didn't leave any more food out on the counter, and the problem ceased to exist.
I'm still giving 5 stars because I enjoyed my understand problems like this can be difficult to solve, and ants are ultimately harmless.
Thanks for a nice stay.
