Beach Street Inn and Suites

The staff was nice. Free coffee, popcorn, snowcones at the windows and good views from the parking lot. The pool at night changing colors was cool. Clean room. Location. Laundry and refillable water was a nice touch.

I liked that the pool was heated, they offered specialty coffees, snow cones, hot chocolate, and popcorn most of the day at no extra charge. That was a big win for me and the kids. Location was great, right across from the end of the pier. Still within short walking distance to the Boardwalk and rides. Will definitely stay here again!

This was a great place to stay! Wish we had more than one day. The location is superb-we had a view of the wharf and could easily walk to the boardwalk. The rooms are nice (amazing shower with double heads!!). We had a room on the stair well which was a bit loud, but for only one night, not a big deal. No coffee maker in rooms, but they have coffee available all day at a little window near the office (popcorn and sno-cones, too, I think). Very friendly staff.

Location could not be better. We stayed in an ocean view room on the 2nd floor. Great views from our room and balcony. Room was spacious and very clean. Beach access was super close, just down some stairs, cross the street, and your feet are in the sand. Our boys especially loved being near the volleyball courts- great for watching some excellent play and trying ourselves with some other families who were also enjoying the beach. The little complimentary treats throughout the day made it especially memorable for our kids- hot chocolate and made to order coffees/tea in the morning, snow cones in the afternoon, and popcorn and tea in the evening! We really enjoyed the monterey bay exploration museum, which was just steps away, as well! We were really surprised there was no entrance fee. Well worth checking out, even for just a quick walkthrough. We could not be happier with our stay and are certain to visit again!

Our main reason for visiting Santa Cruz was to spend time at the Boardwalk and go aboard the holiday train. Beach Street Inn was walking distance to both. We also chose a room with a beach view. Despite it being only one night, we enjoyed our stay.
