The front office staff is very helpful and friendly. That, in addition to a clean, comfortable and quiet room made our stay just perfect. The only bad thing was that we paid double what the room was worth because it was UCSC graduation weekend. If the hotel had been below standard, I would have been very upset, so overall, I... More

A nice clean place to stay in Santa Cruz. 10 minutes drive from the Boadwalk, plenty of interesting retail nearby (especially the ice cream parlour!). If you've had a long day of tripping, then why not chill out and let the bubbles do the work in the Jacuzzi! We found this place clean and simple, the TV signal was a... More

We have stayed a few times as we go to Santa Cruz a lot. It is a good value for the price. Recently I had to cancel the morning of the stay. I expected to have to plead not to be charged for the night. I called and spoke with Tara. After canceling, I asked if I would be charged... More

Room was clean. Air freshener machine was left in our room. We did not like the cheap, plastic toilet seat. Staff friendly. Breakfast in lobby was mobbed by a group of college kids, went back later and they replenished the food.

Stayed at this hotel few weeks ago, it wasn't too bad until the check-out time. Got there after midnight because of the rain, the staff at the front desk was very friendly & helpful even that's just his 3rd shift for the new job. I reserved a suite with hot tub but it doesn't look anything like the picture shown... More

We enjoyed our stay and was helped with the information we received. The hotel staff were very friendly, but although very cordial, due to their working hard to provide service to all, there seem to be something lacking.

Coming back down the coast, we decided to stay in Santa Cruz. Wanted to find a quiet place but not right in town. The BW Inn worked out well. Started off not so good as we were put in a room that smelled like someone had just smoked a pack of cigarettes in, but went back to the desk and... More

So, how would you feel, if your hotel door key didn't work. How about with 3 shivering kids? The clerk did try and try to rekey. She tried the manager, who didn't answer.
