Hotel Paradox, Autograph Collection

10/10 Excellent
"This, in my humble opinion, is the best place to stay in Santa Cruz. It’s DIRECTLY in the middle of town—it’s easy to get anywhere from the hotel. The property is adorable. The pool is great. The bar is open late and the food is good. The rooms are updated and super cute. Whenever friends come to see our daughter at UCSC, I always recommend it. We love it ."

"The Hotel is very nice, very close to the beach, Boardwalk etc. My only complaints are for the price we paid we got a small room with double bed, not very comfortable, no closet, no microwave! 😔 I guess we paid for the convience of being close to the beach."
