"met our needs"
Location is great for boardwalk or quick car ride to downtown, good restaurants, etc. Fridge, microwave, hair dryer are nice amenities. Breakfast was very lacking & minimal. Napkins ran out, no more danishes, etc.Genuine Hotels.com guest review

"Our new place to stay"
We had only been to Santa Cruz once before so we weren't sure where to stay. This place wasn't the cheapest but very reasonable. It is a great location and the room was clean and newly renovated. I'm pretty picky as a mom of a toddler but I would definately come back and stay again.Genuine Hotels.com guest review

"Reasonable Choice"
I arrived late night. The clerk was kind and warm welcomed us. The room condition is pretty good for its price. And other amenities are well organized. I will stay next time too.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"great location, unbeatable price"
My family decided to drive down to Santa Cruz for New Year's Eve on a whim and we made a last minute reservation at Super 8. Honestly, I wasn't expecting much and just wanted something clean and conveniently located to the Boardwalk. Needless to say, I was pleasantly surprised to find the accommodations exceed my expectation. The staff was friendly […] and helpful, the motel was two blocks from the Boardwalk and the rooms were big and clean. I would totally stay here again and recommend it to anyone on a budget looking to get their money's worth. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Excellent Value, Wonderful Quality"
We stayed four nights and were pleasantly surprised by how well appointed the Super 8 was. It was very clean, the bed spreads were of great quality, and the hotel managers were amazingly friendly!Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Best Hamburger I ever had!!"
I was reading the previous reviews before booking this hotel and I loved that someone said, "People pay for a hamburger and expect a steak." I am a very picky person when it comes to hotels, but I really liked the reviews regarding the cleanliness of this hotel and the service. I booked this room expecting what I paid for, but I have to say that I was […] very surprised how clean the rooms were and how comfortable the beds were. This hotel is 2 blooks away from the Beach Boardwalk so the location is absolutely perfect. The kids enjoyed swimming at the pool as well. I was also surprised that they had a good breakfast which included waffles made on their waffle maker, yoplait yogurt, cereal, coffee and danishes. I am very glad I decided to book a room at this hotel and I will be back for sure. This was the best hamburger I've ever had!! :) Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review

"Owners are incredibly nice and we would stay again"
Pride of ownership, very comfortable and clean.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
Pluses: Great location for beach and boardwalk, clean room, prompt and courteous service. Minuses: I had to call front desk at 7am when I realized there was no shower curtain in the room, ice machine didn't work very well, a ton of noise from other guests. Still, we got a pretty good night's sleep.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Good hotel but too pricey"
The hotel was very clean and the staff were very friendly. The hotel was close enough to the boardwalk that we walked every day however the neighborhood that we had to walk through was rough and I was uncomfortable when we walked. I was harassed one day by 2 men standing in front of the corner market. I feel that the rate we paid was rather high and […] the hotel is just not nice enough for that price. I would have rather stayed at a nicer hotel in a different neighborhood, and plan to stay at a different hotel next time we go Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review

"Wonderful, friendly, and caring staff."
The staff is super nice and accommodating. The rooms and grounds are clean. Walking distance to the beach, Boardwalk, and bowling. Close to downtown Santa Cruz. We vacation in Santa Cruz every year and this is the first time we stayed here, now this is we will stay from now on. Its hard to find clean hotels with friendly staff in Santa Cruz, and this […] is one of very few. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Great family vacation at Santa Cruz Boardwalk"
Great location - two blocks from the Boardwalk carousel - and very clean. Older hotel but remodelled and very nice. Basic continental breakfast, but we were given ajoining rooms so that made up for it. Felt save coming back late at night. Great parking.Genuine Hotels.com guest review

"Money's worth"
I get sick of where people spend money for a burger and expect a steak. Super 8 in Santa Cruz was exactly what we expected for a budget. Room was clean, staff was great. Walking distance to Boardwalk. Neighborhood was a little bit low, but I never felt unsafe with my family. Overall, totally worth what we paid and a good stay. Definitely Recommend.Genuine Hotels.com guest review

"Friendly and comfortable"
An easy walk to the boardwalk, wharf, and downtown makes this an ideal location. It is not fancy but is very confortable. Big TV, good bed, and spacious room made my stay very enjoyable. The owner is very knowledgeable of the are and eager to make your stay as good as possible. I will come back here again.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Super 8"
The staff were fabulous, informative and very nice. The room was clean and quiet. Parking was ample, etc. However, the breakfast could have been improved with fresh fruits and a few more healthy choices. Location is good if one is looking for budget stay near the beach. Overall.. good hotel for the money, I would stay there again.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Hotel Super 8 in Santa Cruz, CA"
bed was very comfortable, room was clean, eat breakfast somewhere else, hard to get in and out of parking lot, but overall stay was good for the money.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Cozy and convienent"
This motel was just a few blocks from the boardwalk. Very easy walk. The room was nice. Parking was a little tight-not too many spaces. It was a last minute booking for us but we'd stay there again.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Wonderful experience"
We are so happy to have chosen to stay here. Ms. Patel (propriator) is a wonderful host. Everything is clean , well maintained. I will stay here again!Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Super 8 Santa Cruz"
The hotel is perfect for people on a budget looking to be near the beach and Boardwalk. Even with small children, the Boardwalk is within walking distance. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, as well as knowledgeable about area attractions. We were able to park at the hotel and walk everywhere to avoid paying high parking fees, so this was […] a huge plus for us. The pool is small, but again, perfect size for kids to play.

"You get what you pay for"
We stayed here because of the easy walk to the Boardwalk. The location is excellent for that. The room is fine for the price, though the beds are a bit soft. Having a little pool was nice for the kids.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Great stay - convenient and clean"
Super 8 was a good choice for our visit to the boardwalk. Nice rooms, helpful staff and great location.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Great location and great owners."
Ok, to start, make sure your driving a small car or SUV. I have a big crew cab truck, parking is cramped, but we did it. Unloaded before parking so as not to ding other guests vehicles. The best part, 8 minute walk to the Boardwalk, never had to drive anywhere. Good restaurants all around. Or you go down to the corner store on OTHER side of street , […] (better selections) 1 block and get some TV dinners and snacks. Microwave and refer in the room makes this a great option. Room was nice with what appears to be recent paint and upgrades. Shower was a little narrow if your on the big side. Breakfast was basic with packaged pastries and hot and cold cereals. OJ, coffee and flavored creamers were a nice treat. Unfortunately for me anyway the pool is not heated until Memorial Day, but it didn't stop my wife and daughter from enjoying it. For me, this was my Senior Birthday weekend. The best I've ever had. With the beach so close any early morning walk on beach is the best thing for you. Price was fair for our visit, we enjoyed our stay and WILL BE staying in the future. It's the other reviews that determined my decision for this Super 8. Hope it helps you, Enjoy!!!

"Clean and conveniently located"
We were fairly happy with our short stay. The room was clean, the beds were comfortable and it was surprisingly quiet despite being located near two busy streets. It was a very easy walk to the Boardwalk. The kids were disappointed that the pool wasn't heated. The breakfast was very basic, juice, toast, cereal, which was fine but there is no dining […] area so you had to take stuff on paper plates back to your room. I would hope they could come up with a "greener" way to deal with breakfast. The people at the front desk were very nice and helpful. As motels go, this is a decent one.

"GREAT stay if you don't mind a little traffic"
The owners were extremely thoughtful in putting my family in adjoining rooms and to suggest points of interest and restaurants. The beds were the largest queens I've ever seen and extremely comfortable. The only downside was that we were on the 1st floor, next to a semi-busy intersection but we all got good sleep regardless! This place is equally close […] to the Fisherman's Wharf and downtown. We drove but saw people walking to both destinations from our area. This place gets a 4.5; accommodations were super, traffic intersection a bummer. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"nice hotel for the price"
clean, nice, spacious hotel room for the price. Walls are a little thin...easy to hear noisy neighbors. Good location - near beach and boardwalk.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
We only booked it because of the positive reviews. It was located in between down town and the beach - we walked everywhere, day and night, and felt reasonably safe. Staff were very friendly and helpful. We loved the tables on the 2nd floor terrace - nice place for breakfast.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Perfect location"
Its a very short walk to the Boardwalk. That was important as there were 6 teenage girls in my group and they were back and forth. Everything was very clean in the lobby and the room. Parking is limited and very tight but other than that it was a good place to stay.Genuine Hotels.com guest review

"Better than expected"
I was a little nervous about a 2 star Super 8, but we were pleasantly surprised. The rooms were clean. The king size bed was nice. Nice TV. The best part about this hotel was the distance from the beach and boardwalk. It was so close! The parking is a little tight, but works. Overall, we had a great experience and would highly recommend.Genuine Hotels.com guest review

"Good location, clean hotel"
Stayed here for just one night and was a bit worried about staying in a Super 8, however this hotel was a pleasant surprise. Staff and management were very helpful and professional; room was clean and comfortable; bathrooms needs a refurb, but apart from that good value for money for this area; 5 minutes from the boardwalk. Would recommend this hotel […] for a short say in Santa Cruz. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Super 8 Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk"
Don't confuse this motel with the one opposite - also a Super 8 motel !!! The Santa Cruz Super 8 Beach Boardwalk is on the left side of the road facing the ocean, the one on the opposite side of the road is managed by different people and from the poutside would not seem to have the same facilities. The management were lovely! Very friendly and helpful […] and allowed us to check in at least 3 hours early (which had not been the case in other hotels). The manageress gave us a local street map and recommended some nice walks to local attractions (lighthouse, marina etc) along with useful information about bars and restaurants. There was a small pool that was in a lovely sun trap, but being early April we were not able to use it as the weather wasn't warm enough. Whilst this was a basic looking motel from the outside, the roms were large and very well serviced. There was also plenty of parking. There was a complimentary continetal breakfast which was adequate - plenty of coffee ! The only downside was that the walls were fairly thin and you could hear the conversations from next door, luckily we had courteous neighbours so it wasn't a problem. If you want to be close to the ocean and all the facilities on the seafront, this is an excellent choice of motel for a couple of nights. One of the big bonuses being the friendly and helpful staff.

"Godt budget hotel"
Yderst tilfreds med dette hotel. Morgenmaden er vist meget standard for denne type hoteller. Man kan få lidt toast, smør og marmelade. Der er yougurt, cornflakes og nogle andre morgenmadsprodukter. Der er kaffe te og juice.Hotellet lå forholdsvis central mellem boardwalk og "downtown". Et hotel jeg bestemt ville bruge igen hvis jeg kommer til Santa […] Cruz igen.
