This apartment was in a very good centralized location. The host, Alison was very accommodating. She responded quickly whenever we had a question. Even though the apartment is in the center of the Santa Cruz part of town where people stayed up late into the night, we had no problem with sleeping because of the noice on the street. The bedroom was in the back part of the apartment away from the noice. We recommend this apartment to anyone who is looking for a location that puts them close (walking distance) to most historical sights.
