Beautiful clean room, comfy bed, good size. 7 minutes walk from Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk. Food and shopping all in walking distance. I woke up not feeling well (an ongoing issue for me). Checked out at 11am, drove just a couple of minutes and realized I wouldn't be safe driving. I pulled over, called the hotel and they were able to get me a new room immediately! I will definitely come back here again 🩷😊🩷😊🩷 Very nice and welcoming staff. Thank you!

HoJo was where to stay back in the day and now that it's a Wyndham property, I thought we would give it a try. The property is pretty old with newer cosmetic updates in the room like a backlit mirror and comfortable beds. The location was amazing, we had an ocean view and were able to easily walk to the wharf. The beds were comfortable, the room was clean, and we were able to park right outside the door to our room.

The front desk staff was very welcoming. The hotel guests like older couples were welcoming compared to other hotels I’ve been to (Monterey, San Francisco, etc.). My girlfriend and I enjoyed laying in the jacuzzi and having a decent amount of breakfast options (would recommend adding breakfast sausages, sliced ham, or bacon). It’s a nice downhill walk to the pier and boardwalk. We’d love to stay here again.

Manager Celeste is absolutely amazing. She has been instrumental in assisting the renovations under the new management. She was friendly from Day 1! Also goes the extra mile for guests; it is obvious she puts her heart into & enjoys her job! David & the other staff are also GREAT. VERY refreshing!!

- This hotel was a pretty close walk to the boardwalk & pier. If you have a wagon or stroller, you do have a short detour, but the walk is around 5 minutes only. - The room was clean. - There was a microwave & fridge in the room. - Beds were comfortable and clean.
