Lilly was amazing at check in. She gave us some history on this amazing property that is over 130 yrs old. Absolutely stunning. Easy walk to the boardwalk and wharf areas. This was an unbelievable find for lodging and we now have a permanent option when visiting Santa Cruz or nearby areas.

It is located along the riverwalk area, beautiful view from room. Checkin easy and we were given option of another room due to construction noise near original room. Much appreciated. We went to a Warriors game which was within walking distance. Boardwalk is also within walking distance. Only issue was we could not find remote to fireplace or any indication of how else to operate it. Room was a little chilly. Would definitely stay again.

The property is a gorgeous old Victorian. However, if you are staying in the converted attic rooms, you should be short and small. Very tight, but cute quarters. Amazing view in both directions.

Very cute property. We had a nice view of the river from our room, lots of windows and sunlight so was very bright and welcoming. Within walking distance to the boardwalk! We had a good time in Santa Cruz, and this place has a lot of charm. The room we chose had a nice spacious bathroom with separated tub and shower which was a plus for my husband and I to wash up at same time (he likes his baths!). Thank you for a great stay. :) P.S. be sure to bring a working cell phone, the staff was often away from her desk while we were there, but she's very easy to get a hold of via phone call and will come back within minutes after contacting her, there will be a sign with her contact number on the desk.

We had a wonderful stay in one of the queen attic rooms. It was cozy and romantic and looks just like the pictures. They had complentary cans of soda, water, and coffee. The parking lot is pretty small, and the parking spots even smaller. There also is no elevator. So if stairs are a problem I would recommend getting a suite on the ground level.

Beautiful home and beautiful room (5)! I was really really really happy to have found a room with a lovely jacuzzi tub! It feels like bathtubs are becoming a luxury of the past since most places are renovating for showers only. That tub was my ocean away from the ocean when the temperature dropped! It made my birthday trip even more special :) thank you!
