"Despite claims of a recent remodel, the bed was tough and felt like an outdated box-spring. We were stuck next to a loud ice machine that cycled on and off all night; the hotel was full so they couldn’t move us. Walls had unexplained stains running down them, and the bathroom had about five flies we had to swat. There was a mini fridge and microwave; however, there was a coffee maker— no cups, coffee, or tea. No ice bucket or bags either, and the lobby didn’t even have a fork. This was a real...

Top Ox Trailhead Hotel Reviews

Holiday Inn Express Hotel & Suites Santa Cruz by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Everything was great close to a lot of things around the area"

Hyatt Place Santa Cruz

10/10 Excellent

"Great Breakfast. Great pool and hot Tub. Very Nice Room. Wonderful Staff."

Fern River Resort

8/10 Good

"The setting for the cabin was great…easily accessible to Henry Cowell state park and the downtown area of Felton. If you want a cabin feel in nature, this is your place. The cabin itself is rustic but has everything you need plus amenities like soap, shampoo, dish soap, coffee filters, etc. The cabin was very clean and it was nice to have a porch and a parking spot next to the cabin. The registration person was friendly and very accommodating. Our only concern was that our cabin futon could use a replacement…but other than that, it was an enjoyable stay."

Hilton Santa Cruz/Scotts Valley

10/10 Excellent

"Straightforward service & great amenities available."

Inn At Pasatiempo

10/10 Excellent

"Check in staff very helpful"

Chaminade Resort & Spa

10/10 Excellent

"Clean room. A bit small but that’s ok. Attentive staff easy check in and out. Only issue was A/C did not work. Room was at 73-75 during our stay"

National 9 Santa Cruz

8/10 Good

"This property is a great place to crash near Santa Cruz for a reasonable price. It's well located, has onsite parking, and was clean and the owners/managers were helpful when I needed to change my stay. The room was clean, the bed was comfortable, and had a microwave, coffee maker and mini-fridge included. The only downside was that housekeeping didn't do a full clean/maintenance for one of my days, I couldn't connect my computer to their internet (which is a me problem, not the hotel's - but if you have a highly secure computer, it may pose a problem.) The shower is a little short, but worked great. All and all, a great place to stay for the night and go out exploring during the day."
