I was looking for a little getaway from work and Paul's guesthouse was the perfect fit. Not only is it within driving distance to Santa Cruz, the place is comfortable, tastefully decorated and private. I loved how quiet it was at night because of the location away from roads and traffic. Paul was also a very gracious host who communicated regularly and even helped me check in despite how delayed my arrival was. Only thing to note is that there isn't really a kitchen, in case you're looking for a chance to cook. Otherwise I would 100% recommend Paul's guesthouse for your next getaway.
