I liked that they did housekeeping daily! The staff were very professional & helpful when we encountered difficulties turning on the TV. We even got the complimentary drinks they offered in the morning from 6am-11am!! They had plenty of parking available & the parking is free..

Homeless in back lot. Homeless bike rider two doors down. More like a Motel 6 than BW! Only one hand towel and wash rag in bathroom. Kept asking for two and didn’t happen until third day of visit. Never again here!

The room itself was fine, but the AC was extremely loud and made it almost impossible to sleep. Unfortunately, this really affected the overall stay

Grumpy Inn Santa Cruz

Employee (owner?) who checked me in was unnecessarily rude when I had trouble understanding his directions to the stairs (which are located halfway down the building from the lobby). Other than that this place is adequate for a night or two but nothing special.
