“This hotel stands out for its proximity to the beach and Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk, making it ideal for families; I note the beach-inspired décor in the rooms aims to extend that vacation feel. While some may find inconsistencies in amenities, the location and family-friendly policies, including pet accommodations, make it a practical choice for certain travelers.”
