Friendly staff, hot breakfast, very clean, comfortable bed, and a refrigerator AND microwave! And the 3rd floor view of the slough is very nice.

I wish the window opened more than a few inches for fresh air. Also the water for showers was warm at best… After spending days at the beach a hot shower would have been nice.

a bit pricey but so worth the comfort cleanliness and safety thus far. Be prepared to put down 150 bucks for deposit i was shocked about it usually they just take your credit card for security

clean great for working travelers nice lobby with all the business amenities, did i mention how clean it is? a big deal for this intrepid traveler I’ve been around the world and never understand why all hotels cannot provide s clean, safe and comfortable stay. it looks like the breakfast included is going to be exceptional as well

Hotel was clean and roomy. Breakfast was delicious with a lot of options. Staff was nice and friendly. Located was great 😊

Everything was good, but I wished I could have the fan on constantly throughout the night. It just came on and off with the thermostat. Maybe I just didn't know how to set it where it would stay on fan the whole time, not just when it needed to cool and shut off when it was done cooling.

Courteous greeting upon arrival. Great, quiet room. The suite had an ample refrigerator - so I saved money by grocery shopping across the street at Nob Hill. Well-prepared and organized breakfast buffet.

Not applicable.

Loved the size of the room. There was 6 of us, 3 were children and we had SPACE. Clean and comfortable free parking and a T.V. in each room. Took the kids for a swim in the evening (heated). We enjoyed the stay, and would definitely stay again.

Yes, buffet breakfast..we were happy to hear they were serving, but wasn't happy with it. Kids didnt enjoy it, including myself. Eggs no flavor, turkey sausage not warm...just wasn't an appetizing breakfast.

Breakfast was way better than most for a serve yourself type. All food areas were very clean and the attendant was always making sure everything was stocked. Very nice and helpful employee.

Exercise room was very small and the treadmill was not working. Couldn’t get it to go faster. I could stroll faster than than it went.

The breakfast was good! The room was clean, comfortable, and I loved how the location is close to places such as Panda Express, Target, and Chevron. The receptionists were both nice and welcoming. Great experience, definitely coming back!

The bathtub’s drain was slow.

Great location; close to both Santa Cruz & Monterey. We loved the beaches, Santa Cruz Boardwalk, kayaking in Moss Landing & the Aquarium. The hotel was generally clean & quiet.
