Lovely charming place, very close to the beach. Charming people, super quiet and friendly.

nice location, friendly staff, we felt comfortable

The grounds and facilities are beautiful and cozy. It was me, my husband and our 2 kids(4&10), i do recommend for familys. The staff and other travelers were so nice and friendly. The staff is absolutely wonderful. The staff the day before were very accommodating to change our room to fit our family's needs. I would definitely book this place again over a chain hotel.

The only draw back is the parking. They try their best to accommodate with some parking passes, but getting a spot to use it is a bit tricky. But we made it work with a little time and patience.

Lovely friendly hostel, really clean and great facilities. Staff were so welcoming

Tricky to park close by but otherwise great stay!

Beautiful hostel at a fantastic location. We stayed in an incredible cottage with loads of space and ideal facilities, and amazing social spaces in the hostel overall, the BBQ and fire-pit outside a highlight. The staff were all fantastic, Tony was incredibly friendly and made sure our stay was as good as possible. Excellent all round.

It was clean and comfortable, nice and peaceful too.

Nothing was wrong

Really cosy atmosphere and nice staff!

Lovely hostel, very nice staff, I would have loved to spend more time there.

This location was amazing - so close to the beach and pier! Perfect option for travelers on a budget. Great way to meet other young travelers. I was out and about most of the way and this was the perfect place to come back to and get a good night’s sleep.

There wasn’t anything I disliked!

Good location, clean, comfortable beds, relaxing feel

clean , good location

The location was amazing. The house we stayed in was unique and very comfortable.

super pretty location in a lovely Victorian house and a beautiful garden. cute room, comfy bed, well organized kitchen, beach in a short walking distance. would definitely come again if we ever come back to Santa Cruz

nothing

Everything! The hostel is clean and pristine, with nice upgrades in the shared kitchen/living space and from the rooms to the bathrooms. This hostel exceeded my expectation. Would definitely come back.

Nothing! Everything was perfect. The only thing I could think of is that the lockers in the bedrooms were a bit small, and a full backpack definitely wouldn't fit in it. The lockers could be used for smaller bags, shoes, or personal items. But the room felt safe enough for me to leave my luggage under my bed.

The gardens were beautiful

It was way too small and we were unable to stay there and unable to get a refund.

Location and housing great! Staff terrible and unfriendly. Creepy!!!! Scared my kids with colt vibes.

Clean, comfy, spacious, great roommates, safe, secure, attention to details, loved the gardens, the neighborhood, great kitchen, free fruit, tasty coffee. Sheets and towels smelled so good!

Not enough parking but not their fault. It’s street parking.

tbh it was perfect and the staff were so kind. everything went great. nice location too!

n/a

conveniently located near the beach, nice walk.

Communication could be approval ,contact with staff and office is a must….

More Communication via direct communication with STAFF with landline…

Location was within easy walking of the beach, food, and the light house. Lots of outdoor seating options. Fast internet. USB ports and electrical outlets by the bed. Shampoo/conditioner in the shower.

Cost was high for a single bunk in a shared room. They are cheaper in Europe.
