My boyfriend and I found this hotel after looking through many other choices. We were not sure what to expect but it looked cute enough and with such a reasonable price we took a chance and booked it. We traveled from only a couple hours away for a little over night vacation and upon our arrival we were pleasantly surprised... More

Very comfortable, clean Inn. Very good breakfast. Staff friendly and extremely helpful, excellent service. It's a good location, fairly quiet, but a really short walk to Downtown shopping and restaurants, and also to the beach, wharf and boardwalk. My daughter and I stayed for nearly two weeks, visiting my other daughter at UCSC, and found it a good location for... More

The hotel is clean, comfortable, and is within a 5 minute walk of the boardwalk and wharf. The service was great as well, very friendly. Plus they have complimentary bike rentals!!! My girlfriend and I cruised up towards west cliff on the bicycles. We both thought the complimentary bikes were a terrific perk. Would definitely stay there again.

This place is great! We came for a last minute quick trip and got a deal on our room. We were excited to see how close to the beach, only a few minute walk. The room was quiet, which is important for my dog, so he doesn't bark at other people. The staff was so friendly and accommodating. Rooms were... More

The Bay Front Inn is in the perfect location for a stay in Santa Cruz. We originally planned to stay one night, but ended up staying for three. Its literally over the hill from the beach, and a 2 minute walk in the opposite direction to Downtown shopping. The front desk also has 4 bikes available for free. You can... More

It's a well located motel for a fair price. Very kindly and helpfully staff. The rooms are clean with all you need. A big flatscreen TV as well. Just located few minutes walk from beach and also from downtown. And the special, you can get a bicycle up to 4 hours for free! We like it here!

This place was awesome. Only $60 per night booked through Booking.com, and was worth twice as much. Location was great, rooms were new, remodeled and clean, and the beds were comfortable. The BEST part of the whole place was the staff. They were all very friendly, helpful, and really took care of us. We needed a wine bottle opener at... More

I had a good time here the location was good it was about a two minute walk to the beach and breakfast until 10 is also a plus. They also had a delicious waffle maker in the breakfast area that you will eat 50-2,000 of. if I need a motel in the area again I will definately stay here.

We've been travelling across the U.S and coming to Santa Cruz was a highlight. Finding the Bay Front Inn was simple enough as its a great location only a 2 min walk from the centre of things. Saying that, it's not noisy. The rooms are really clean, and the bed was comfty-so comfy we thought we missed the breakfast at... More
