Our stay was fine, the room was clean but had a slight order to it. There was fight in the room next to us and cops were called but that wasn't the Hotels fault.

The ratings for this motel are inflated. It is not nearly as good as it is rated. Although the room we had was clean and a good size, there were a range of other issues. Firstly, this property seems to have several long-term residents--some of whom you'll see outside on the premises. The area this motel is located in Santa Cruz also has a significant transient population. The appearance of the motel also does not resemble the photos posted here on Expedia. For instance, one of the windows to the main office was smashed. Overall, there are probably better places in town to stay.
