"I get that the rooms have been “renovated,” but there’s a very wide range of definition for that term, which the Hitching Post made quite clear. No. Just, no. Wouldn’t recommend. Please try renovating again. Maybe it’ll work the next time."

"We had a wonderful vacation in Santa Cruz overall, but I’m not sure we would choose to stay at this hotel again. Especially considering we paid around $400/night, plus an added $160 dog fee for 3 nights. Overall, I don’t think the quality of the hotel lived up to the price. Considering how much wear ..."

"The resort is beautiful and well maintained. The only problem that I had was the spa. It was not as clean or luxurious as a highly rated spa should be. The showers and locker rooms were very old and not sparkly clean. There were no staff to help you unless you actively searched for help. Overall ..."

"Unfortunately, we were very disappointed with our stay. The hotel is not in the best area, and our room was not that clean. The bed was uncomfortable, and we were given only two flimsy bath towels for two people staying two nights. To make matters worse, several guests were very noisy at night, making ..."
