Location, location, location. Great location in the center of Santa Cruz, and the flat was extremely quiet.
The flat is definitely not as bright as the pictures, and the second bedroom is quite small (can’t lay out two suitcases). Everything was clean, but nothing to write home about if you were wanting a space that was a little higher end.
We had some issues with plumbing whilst there and the hosts were super responsive and got everything fixed that day. The hosts also gave great recommendations, which was a nice extra touch that made our stay.
