Four Points by Sheraton Santa Cruz Scotts Valley

Four Points by Sheraton Santa Cruz Scotts Valley

10/10 Excellent
"Nice location a bit far from the boardwalk but it’s not. It’s definitely not walking distance but a good 20 min drive. Theres food and gas and little stores around there’s a Starbucks too. My only gripe is that when we came back from the wedding we went to the parking lot in the front and inside were both full. I ddnt know where to leave the car and it was about 2 am I was exhausted until I found a spot. Other than that great hotel ok location staff is GREAT! The rooms are comfy and big there’s no door on the shower but not too much water comes out of you move the shower head."
