The front desk staff are very proactive, kind, and extremely responsive. Their customer service is outstanding. They went above and beyond to help me enjoy my stay. The hotel amenities are exactly what I was looking for. It’s a nice place to stay with the family because of updated kitchen and cleanliness.

The room smelled terrible. When we arrived we went in and then decided to leave. We knew the room was non refundable so we didn’t check out. We had paid for the two nights. The room was ours for those nights whether we stayed there or not. We did notice some large dark marks on the wall before we left. We did not disturb the room at all and stayed at another hotel near by. We stopped by the room at Surf City on Saturday just to check on it. When we arrived we discovered that the room had been entered while we were at the other hotel. There was a strong smell of paint and the marks on the wall had been painted over. The was paper that had been disposed of in the toilet but not flushed. I am very upset that the room was entered while it was rented out to us. I will be requesting a refund.

The room was literally spotless. Staff was so amazing. This place surprised me at how cool it was and how well they take care of it. I was really impressed and we will be back! Thank you everyone!

The room was very clean and it was the first time I had a computerized check in and key made right in front of me out of what looks like an ATM machine. The host was via satellite on a screen. It was very advanced and very cool! They also allowed us a late checkout. Extremely comfortable beds. Thx for everything.

The ac worked, the WiFi didn’t. The hotel room was filthy. There was stain on the walls, the boarders of the room where DIRTY. Unfortunately because we traveled far to Santa Cruz, and by the time we checked in, we couldn’t find an alternative stay for my famil. So we stayed in the room, but I would not recommend to families with kids! Not a well cleaned and maintained hotel! Didn’t come with breakfast, no one at front desk upon checkout, super sketch.

Our room didn’t have toilet paper. There were also dirt/mud stains on the comforter. The TV remote volume buttons didn’t work.
