Summary: This hotel is beautiful, it looks even better in person than it does in the pictures. Rooftop restaurant and downstairs pool area were especially nice. Great service in restaurant with excellent breakfast buffet. Huge bathroom and enormous bed. Staff went out of their way to provide me with hypoallergenic bed linens (no down/feathers). Nice toiletries. Wish the shower had better pressure and you could flush toilet paper but that's a problem everywhere on Santa Cruz, not specific to this hotel. Extremely close to the main strip of restaurants and bars and front desk staff gave us dining options upon request, including a map of the area. They arranged taxi service for us upon departure. Only stayed one night and really wish we had stayed longer. Only downside was the lack of soundproof rooms. Birds and fellow guests can be early risers and you will here them making noise quite early in the morning.
