The worst hotel we‘ve ever been in. Dirty and shabby room, AC did not work. The clearence between doorframe and leaf was big enough that people from outside could see our bed. Should have gone when we recognized the smell at the reception. So if you‘re even in Santa Cruz, better sleep in the car or on the street than in this hotel. Seriously, don‘t do it. You‘re welcome.

There was no AC, but luckily the weather was nice. Very nice man at the front desk. Parking was on a slop and narrow. Be prepared if you plan to stay.
