Excellent property. I am marking this location as my preferred spot in Santa Cruz. It is an easy, pleasant, short walk to the beach, at least two restaurants, and a coffee shop.
Pros: Immaculate, nicely stocked, great amount of space, well-organized and functional kitchen. Pretty much everything we needed was already there. I appreciated the planning on the part of the hosts, from the new dish scrubber to the matches in the drawer. The bathroom has excellent space with a great tub, and the backyard is cozy, relaxing, and beautiful.
Cons: The EXTRA squeaky bed, but still comfortable. Power was our main issue. The bedroom only has two-prong plug outlets despite the desk being in the space (not ideal for computer plug-in). Also, no outlet by the bed, but you can work with it using their extension cord. Nothing too hard to manage.
I’d highly recommend the space.
