Seaside Inn & Suites

10/10 Excellent

Hampton Inn Santa Cruz West, CA

8/10 Good

"The room was nice but the road noise was very loud. Check in was kind of annoying in that my vehicle license plate number was required to get a parking pass so that meant walking out once to get my plate number then a second time to put the pass in my car. The breakfast was ok too but cold cereal and yogurts would have been a nice addition."

Bay Front Inn Santa Cruz

10/10 Excellent

"I have stayed here every time I go to Santa Cruz. It's close to the boardwalk and it's very well maintained"
