6/10 Good

We got there late and wanted to get some water from the vending machine but it only took cash. Would be great if they modernized the machines. It was good for the price and shortness of visit as we were there to visit ucsc.

Good value in Santa Cruz

A decently priced, decently located motel in Santa Cruz -- good value for the price overall. It was a quiet location, had a better than expected breakfast included, and was overall clean and comfortable. A good stay in an otherwise fairly pricey location. Nearby BBQ restaurant was quite good.

10/10 Exceptional

Quiet and not busy considering it was Christmas. Convenient and close enough to West Cliff Drive area without being right at the beach.
Kurtis, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The women at the front desk were extremely friendly even though I showed up very late in the evening and had to call them to check me in. Unlike most free hotel breakfasts this one actually tasted really good and had a good selection of options. I will definitely stay here again if I ever stay in Santa Cruz again..

8/10 Very good

The room was large, clean and spacious, the beds were comfortable. The bathroom was a little dated but adequate. The breakfast was basic but adequate too. Great value !
Umme Salma, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Another lovely stay. I live on the West Side and this is where my family stays whenever they are in town. The rooms are always clean and comfortable and the staff helpful and professional. Excellent location with tons of nearby places to eat and a mile or so from some of the best coastline in Santa Cruz.
Susan, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

I always have a nice stay at Mission Inn. Great people, clean rooms, comfortable beds. Pleasant courtyard and patio areas. Nice variety at the Continental Breakfast. I think it's a bit more than Continental, actually. Well worth it.
