I have stayed at better and I have stayed at worse places. Overall it was just ok. We didn't spend much time in the room just to sleep and clean up. I never saw anyone else coming or going in the building we stayed in ( building 3) so it was quiet. The grounds are very nice and the lobby... More

It's an old and dated hotel, smelled a bit like sewage, in the lobby, the halls and the room. The room wasn't very clean, minimal TV selections and a TV from the Stone Age that was barley viewable due to age, forget the fact that is was mounted in the wall to the side of the bed about six feet...

Arrived late at the Staybridge, only to be told they were overbooked. They put me at the Garden Hotel and comped the room. The Garden Hotel reminded me of my cinderblock dorm room of the 1970's - dated carpet, old furnishings, barely functioning A/C unit, etc. It was a good thing I was tired and just went to sleep!

This hotel was easily booked through a 3rd party site. The price was right and knew what to expect as we have stayed previously. The facility is a dated and older facility, but if a guests knows what to expect, it is not a disappointment. The price is reasonable and the room is spacious with a work desk and high... More

We checked in late and had an early flight the next morning so admittedly, I didn't see the grounds in the daylight. We were directed to building six where we went up a filthy dirty set of stairs to our third floor room. The lighting was dim and probably for good reason. The curtains were in shreds, and the carpet... More

This hotel was rated 3 stars, but I felt it only deserved 2. The mattresses were very old, we could feel the springs. The fan in bathroom did not work. The TV was old and had about 20 channels only. Their wifi signal was weak and kept cutting out (this hotel is located in Silicon Valley, really?). A dead bug... More

The driver is agitated and say in broken English that "you not there." I don't know what he's talking about. I said I had been waiting a long time at the... More

I was looking for a hotel close enough to Santa Cruz without the exorbitant Memorial Day weekend prices. I happened upon this place on Priceline. With tax it came to just over $100 a night for 2 nights. Check in was easy. There was a line but the 2 gentlemen kept the line moving. Based on a prior reviewer's tip,... More

I found the staff beyond useless. They offered nothing informationally at check-in. I called the front desk to ask about airport check-in and printing boarding passes. Rudely, I was told it is across from the the front desk. In going there, the computer was super slow and was doing all kinds of updates. I eventually just gave up. I had... More
