Nice place to stay close to the beach and a lot of other restaurants. Hotub was open and it wasn't super fancy but it was nice. The room was nice with a fridge and was clean. Overall a good experience.

We stay here each time we’re in Cambria each time. Staff is friendly. Location is perfect. Ocean view rooms are amazing. Love the fireplaces. A suite upgrade is worth it if you plan on spending at least half the time in the room. Lots of small business zone shops and restaurants very close. There’s so much to do around the area and within a short drive. It is the perfect beachfront location.

Our go-to hotel. Great location for a stroll to the boardwalk or a stroll to downtown. and the front desk staff are very friendly. Beds are comfortable. Bring cash for the little market across the street; their burritos are good!

Good for the price.
The rooms can be very loud depending on who is above you. Parking is very tight. Staff was nice and accommodating. There was no secure after hours drop to place room keys and parking passes to check out early that i could see.

Christmas Trip
This is a great hotel close to the beach/boardwalk in Santa Cruz. Unfortunately it rained alot while I was there so I couldn’t enjoy the hot tub but the property is well maintained. The only criticism I have is the lack of choice of coffee. They have Kuerigs but only buy Costco bold roast-I drink light or medium roast & would have brought my own if I knew
