Doors weren’t closing, bathroom wasn’t clean, INTERNET DID NOT WORK! Complained several times about the internet and got “oh it’s the cable company”. I called Xfinity and told them I was staying at this hotel and their response was “they need to reset the router daily”. I would have liked to see a pan or pot to use since they have a stove/oven. Our refrigerator was leaking into the veggie section. Don’t know how the water was coming from the freezer and dripping through the walls of the fridge to the bottom drawer! Definitely needs replacing! We didn’t complain about anything except the Internet because we were in town for a funeral. For the price of this place I could have stayed at the Best Western with a breakfast and always free hot coffee, and internet that works!

Clean, quiet and spacious room. It's not Hilton, but it is good value. A full kitchen with all appliances. Kitchen ware is available for $5. I will definitely be back.

The room was just as expected. We chose this hotel because of location, price & the kitchen. Our son is attending UCSC, and we wanted to find a hotel that wouldn’t break the bank & allow us to not spend a fortune at restaurants. Thank you. We will be back.
