Very clean and convenient. We were just passing by, but if we have the chance, we will go back for a longer stay to enjoy the patio and ping-pong table.

Cozy, Comfy, Beachy
Cozy, comfy, clean, adorable inn steps from the beach. Great price for off-season, decent continental breakfast (please get better coffee though!) and a perfect little beach cove for surfers and dogs. We had a great time.

Perfect weekend retreat!
Loved our room. Had a great balcony and view of the beach. The inn was clean and within walking distance to shops and even more stunning ocean views. Our room was a little chilly (my husband is never warm enough) but, the staff gave us an extra comforter and that was great. Convenient location to explore both Capitola and Santa Cruz.
