Very spacious well appointed downstairs apartment, with comfortable beds, updated bathroom, cute backyard, and bikes and toys (alhtough we didn't use them) outside. The washer and dryer were a special bonus as we had our 15 and 12 year old granddaughters. The accomodations were better than we'd anticipated. Very convenient and and easy walk to the pier, boardwalk, AND downtown eclectic Santa Cruz (Wed Farmer's Market - one of the nicest we've visted in a long time). Nice restaurants and attractions nearby. The parking passes were very handy as regular parking is supposedly restricted after 8 pm except for residents or those with passes. Since tenants are asked not to leave food, there were no spices i.e. salt & pepper, like we've found in other airbnbs. So be prepared. The park across the street attracts homeless people who can be noisy in the evening and even before sunrise. Diana was nice and quick to ask the upstairs permanent tenants to reduce the noise. We enjoyed our stay.
