Hotel Solares

Santa Cruz|0.67km from Santa Cruz Museum of Art & History
Don’t ever pay more than $100 for this hotel. The photos online make the place seem simple and modern, and while I can tell they tried with some furniture upgrades (a bathroom mirror with integrated lighting, a desk with power and USB outlets), the building and rooms are very old, dirty, and have thin walls. The night we stayed the prices were listed at $360. Combined with the photos we saw online, we thought we were getting a decent place near downtown Santa Cruz, but we were in complete disbelief when we got the keys to our room. First... the room was just plain dark. There was no main lighting and the 1 light switch by the door didn’t work. No wonder because despite the room being pretty large, it had next to no furniture and no lights except for the 2 lamps by the bed. 1 of the 2 didn’t work. So we had 1 bathroom light and 1 bed light working. In hindsight that might have been intentional because there were dents, plastered holes in the walls, and even a cracked doorframe which was only visible from the inside with sunlight. It also didn’t help they had several rowdy groups checked in as well who were partying though the night. The walls are thin. You can hear the balcony doors sliding and their voices, music, etc. And when they let their door slam shut, it really reverberates through to the floor. I get the feeling this is the type of crowd they usually get here. Which isn’t the fault of the hotel itself but when paired with poor noise insulation, it’s surprising they don’t have cops over every night. The bed had clean sheets. That’s 1 good thing in their favor. And the receptionists we did talk to were friendly and tried to help, but management would only allow a partial refund and were not available to address the issue in person. Even with the partial refund we were still paying over $200 in total. The place is definitely not worth the price tag and I hope no one ever comes here because even if they’re a decent budget hotel, any hotel that runs a scam and marks up the prices that high and claims a quality they cannot offer doesn’t deserve to book anyone.

Great location, the newest hotel near boardwalk. Parking is extra ($20 currently), but at least it is in a secure gated basement. Great clean rooms, front desk staff was super helpful. Would come back again!

Continental Inn
4.1/5106 Reviews
Great location, very close to the sea. Shopping is convenient, it is a good location with culture and scenery. Looking forward to the future and the opportunity to stay again. The Chinese food downstairs is good... There are homeless people nearby, so you have to pay attention to children.
SureStay Hotel by Best Western Santa Cruz

I really enjoy all the stays I have here. The manager is really good at her job and very attentive. If ever something should arise she is very nice and helpful if it’s just a recommendation as to where I should eat or how to get to a destination quickly. She always has great ideas. The rooms are very clean and attended to. I have experienced allot of the hotels in the vicinity and nothing compares. I will continue to satisfy all of my needs for a hotel stay here. Breakfast is a real treat and I have come to depend on it now as I have always had a pleasant experience. Waffles, eggs, and cereal that’s hot or cold is enough to always have a variety. Very nice with code to top off a perfect start for my day. Thank you Sure Stay for your excellent service.
