We were warned about the size of the room but even so, there was hardly any room to move around.

Lovely staff; good location; beautiful old home, very nicely refurbished; free water and coffee; free parking

No complaints!

The location was great, just a few blocks to the boardwalk. The room was nice and big and the bed was comfortable. It was a quiet stay for just one night :-)

The shower in the bedroom provided no privacy as it was completely glass doors; but, I did put up a bedsheet on the shower door for privacy

No breakfast served!‘s Website stated they would be breakfast every morning.

I know it’s an old building but it may benefit them to fill the walls with sound dampening insulator as noise travels very easily across the entire property. I would also encourage them to make that “$12 resort fee” worthwhile as there’s nothing truly “resort level” offered. The bathrooms can all have full-size wall-mounted shampoo/conditioner/body wash dispensers (common in most base hotels now even), the complimentary coffee/tea/water/soda can be expanded to some quick grab and go snacks, and additionally it would be good to do a deep clean/maintenance quality check of their suites at least once a quarter. Our room was very very dusty and the shower - though nice - didn’t drain well so you end up standing in a pool of backed up water. Additionally the portable AC unit required us to keep the window open to vent the AC hot air (because it wasn’t installed properly), defeats the purpose of your window is wide open with AC running. With so few rooms and the price point they charge I would expect immaculate rooms and facilities.

The property is very cute and host great BnB vibes. The room was nice in size (had upstairs 3rd level (attic) room) and the bathrooms were updated. The staff was very friendly and willing to support as much as possible. Finally the location is 100! Walking distance to downtown and to the beach/boardwalk.

Everything was great 4 min walk to the boardwalk ! It was nice and quiet everything was clean. Had such a great experience!

Room was a little small but we didn’t have any problems with this as it was only a one night stay.

Hotel building is beautiful and the staff are excellent, very friendly. They were willing to watch our bags before and after checkout which let us see more of Santa Cruz hassle free, this was a massive help and greatly appreciated.

No complaints. We could have stayed longer and I wish we had. I'm always sad to leave Santa Cruz.

The property is gorgeous and super close to everything (did not need to drive to Pacific Ave, Wharf, and Boardwalk). Room was simple but very clean.

There was nothing I did not like, everything was amazing. I would definitely stay again if I were ever in santa Cruz again, the hotel and it's staff exceeded all expectations.

The room was in the attic and had a couple of windows that opened to let in the fresh air which was excellent. The room also had a fridge and an aircon unit.

It was a very small room - I had to turn sideways to get to the head of the bed, and there was no nightstand on the other side of the bed. I would suggest paying more for a larger room, as the Economy Queen (Room 8) didn’t have any seating other than the bed and didn’t have a luggage rack. (Check out the photos of the rooms on their website in addition to the photos on Booking.com.) There was a lot more noise from traffic than expected - bring your earplugs. The room smelled strongly of Lysol when we arrived, so we had to air it out.

A cool Victorian mansion with a glass case of historical objects found in the walls during the remodel. An easy walk to the Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk and the Wharf. Lovely stained glass, and cool digital locks on the front door and the guest rooms. Nice assortment of refreshments available downstairs - coffee, tea, sodas, and a large bottle of water to refill your own water bottles. The room was very clean, and there were tall windows with shutters on two sides, and a great view of the San Lorenzo River. Staff was very nice at checkin, and checkout is just signing your name on a clipboard and checking a box if you want your receipt emailed.

Everything was good . Have 2 concerns only . Property has no elevator and it takes time to bring everything to the room if you are on 2nd floor . I have a big truck and parking kinda small for it. Other then that everything was good.

Great place to stay! Very clean, excellent staff, the accommodations were superb. Loved everything about it. An extra highlight was the fact that it is beautifully restored Victorian mansion. Love love love it!

Great location , close to boardwalk

we would have loved to have fresh towels from time to time. The toiletries could be better.

Charming historical house, great location. Overall, a great value. Great staff!

Code system to open all the doors: once lost the little piece of paper with access details(or left in the room by accident like in our case) there is no way to access the room as nobody was attending the hotline detailed at the access.

Great location, beautiful building with history! Nice small balcony in the room.

A Very Nice real breakfast would be a nice touch, similar to a B&B.

Close to the Santa Cruz wharf and boardwalk. Very comfortable. Lots of safe parking. Beautiful Victorian.

The hotel does not offer regular or green tea. They do have a variety of herbal teas, but no black or green tea at all. When prompted, member of staff said this is intentional, because in Santa Cruz people only drink herbal tea, and the majority of their guests are from Santa Cruz. Bad luck for us non Santa Cruzians..

Large room.

Our room was beautiful and clean and it was a short walk to the Boardwalk. Staff was very friendly and helpful.

The location was perfect- a five minute walk to the boardwalk and the beach made it possible to avoid the parking costs of the area. The room itself was very nice for the cost- it was private, spacious, and clean. The parking lot was tight, but there were plenty of spots available (there were two parking lots in total). If you’re choosing a room, know that there are two buildings: the Victorian age building (the large one) has most of the rooms, while the smaller building (newer model) has only a couple guest rooms. From what I could tell, the Victorian building was a little noisy, while the smaller building was perfect (little to no noise). Choose your room accordingly. We stayed in room #14, which I would recommend for its space and comfort (the room was located at the front of the smaller house, so it had a nice view of the surrounding area). I would definitely stay here again on any future beach trips. No complaints.

There was literally nothing about my experience I didn't like. From the time I got there until the time we left, the only thing I didn't like was leaving!

Front desk was absolutely amazing! Location is perfectly located in between the beach and downtown. Would stay here everytime I stay in Santa Cruz
