Hotel Paradox, Autograph Collection
8/10 Good
"Reception service was nice. Lobby and restaurant had lovely aesthetics. Room was modern and clean. Restaurant service was unorganized and slow. Food menu was decent though. Pool area was inviting but definitely need to change their pool chairs. The material makes them look super dirty. Yuk."
Hotel Solares
10/10 Excellent
"I liked the hotel's location and the fact that everything was within walking distance. The only thing I didn't like was that coffee was available only in the morning."
Casablanca On The Beach

"This renovated property is across the street from the beach and a block from the Santa Cruz pier. It is blocks from the train that takes you to the redwoods. It couldn’t be any better of a location. The staff is very helpful and friendly. Highly recommend for a visit."
