Family visit
I like staying at this Best Western because it's convenient m, next to the freeway, yet quiet. The reception people are always friendly & helpful. They offer a hot breakfast which includes yogurt & muffins & waffles. It’s a goos deal for the money. My only complaint is there are no recycling bins on property & this is California people. Get with it

Good enough for a one night stay
We were surprised that no extra pillows were available and wished we had brought are own. The ones on the bed were very small and soft. The room was a decent size, and it was chosen because the hotel is dog friendly. I found a couple of long human hairs which had been missed but otherwise seemed ok.

Great place to stay.
We had a very relaxing time. The hotel was between Santa Cruz and Felton. A lot to do in the three areas. The hot tub was very clean and felt great. We will be coming back.

We'll not go back
We were not informed that there wold be no housekeeping service. Towels were coarse and uncomfortable. There was a dreadful stench permeating the front desk area (this has been persistent over the past year). Nonfunctioning hot beverage machine for breakfast and the buffet was not appealing.

Pretty good!
We stayed 2 nights. The location is good, close to lots of things to do. The hot tub was very relaxing. The breakfast could have been better-too many carbs and sweets, and eggs were not good. Overall, it was a decent price for a clean room and fairly comfy bed. The staff was friendly and helpful.

Some pros, some cons
This hotel is as okay for the price. It was also conveniently located for us. The property itself was somewhat lacking. It’s basically an upgraded version of a cheaper motel. The rooms are very small if there are two queen beds. The bathroom is also very small. It would also be great if there was some sort of nightlight or small lamp because it was very dark in the room at night, making it hard to get to the bathroom. The fan in the bathroom was very loud and came on with the light so we would disturb each other in the night. The shower handle was also a bit broken in our room. They do have a nice pet area that our dog liked!

Great place to stay
I was very happy that my room was clean & comfortable! I have stayed here before & not always was happy with the condition. I think they are trying harder to keep the rooms cleaner. The water was hot immediately which wasn’t the case at other places I have stayed. The breakfast had eggs, sausage & potatoes as well as muffins, fruit & cereal. The front desk clerk was friendly & helpful

Property is nice and clean. This location has a washer/dryer and gym. The morning breakfast has multiple options to choose from and is staffed for items that run out. Woman in breakfast room was quick to fill items such as eggs and muffins which tan out. Nice set up. The staff is friendly. There is a jack in the box next door for easy access as well as easy access to highway.

Terrible customer service
Terrible experience we had to wait over 45 minutes for a front desk employee to arrive and check us in @ 7:30pm. Continently breakfast was terrible no knives service employee did not speak English. Morning front desk employee very rude we asked for knives he never responded or said anything. This behavior seem to be very consistent with the average hotels in California please help fix this problem if you can

$40 to check-in an hour early
Hotel was as to be expected. Arrived an hour before posted check-in (after driving 14 hours) and asked if it was possible to check-in if my room was ready. Said it would be a $40 charge. Not huge issue, just annoying. If the room wasn't ready I understand not being able to check-in but if it was, why would it cost $40 for the front desk person to click the mouse and hour early?
