Of course the history of this place is fascinating and it's just a wonderful Retreat surrounded by ancient redwood forest babbling Brooks and rivers and just quiet beautiful Serene setting. The rooms were clean neat and very comfortable and enjoyed the patio balcony and the ability to have the fresh air coming into the room

This is a nice getaway spot. There is plenty ofareas outside for hanging out and the bar/lounge is convenient. There was a live salsa band there so that was a fun surprise. The room was nice and clean. I would go back.

Hoping you are able to build up business after remodeling to restore this wonderful scene. I came often thirty years ago. I miss the dining room and hope that you can make this a full resort again. I see you are having music every weekend, that definitely helps! Enjoyed El Sol the other night, and there is a huge contingent of Salsa dancers in Santa Cruz. Loved the spa tub.

Big comfy rooms

The rooms were big and the beds very comfortable. The hotel had live music from 7-10pm. The man checking us in wasn't having any of our friendliness, but the checkin itself went quickly.

LOUD, LOUD and LOUD stay away from this property. Aside from the unappreciated sassy attitude from the front desk this property is trash. Located on a busy highway the noise level is extremely high. We had the upstairs guests show up at 11 pm and walked around all night until 4:30 in the AM constantly turning on water (super loud). Needless to say we did not get any sleep. Huge mistake in selecting this property. I am convinced the guests above us were crack heads. Yup this is the type of property this is.
