We wish we could have stayed longer! Stayed in Sisley and it was great. A little chilly, but the comfortor was good quality. Felt like staying at a nice mom/grandma house...nicely decorated and comfy. Would stay here again if we are in Santa Cruz longer.

The property itself is unique. It is a bit rundown. With some updating it could be really nice. The room smelled musky. The bed was terrible. My husband and I fell into the middle of the bed. Also, the shower was unique and it was challenging how to turn it on.

This place is a very unique place to stay. Very rustic. I liked it a lot. Check in was easy as well as check out. Did not have a mini frig or hair dryer. For some reason, we could not get the fireplace to work. Coffee on the balcony in the morning was nice. Great coffee and Keurig coffeemaker. Bottled water furnished as well as bath soaps and shampoos.
