Dream Inn Santa Cruz

Dream Inn Santa Cruz

8/10 Good
"The best part about this property was that it was right on the beach. The view from our balcony was amazing! The staff was extremely helpful. The rooms were clean and it was located right next to the wharf and steps from the Beach Boardwalk. We were right next to the pool and they were hosting a junior lifeguard training, so it was a little noisy but not bad. Overall, this is a wonderful place to stay. I highly recommend it!"
