Hilton Santa Cruz/Scotts Valley
10/10 Excellent
"The property is conveniently situated near freeways, but it is quiet and easily accessible.
We had a great breakfast in the hotel which was reasonably priced.
Check in was smooth and the staff were very helpful and pleasant.
Our only complaint was that our room was not made up after the first night, prior to our second night. The staff knocked on the door to do the room, and we said we needed 5 minutes to get out for them to to the cleaning. We went away for 45 minutes, but upon our return the room had not been made up which was a disappointment as we afforded them plenty of time to clean it and make up the bed, change towels etc.
Other than that, we enjoyed our stay, and would definitely stay there again.

"Our time here was amazing and we absolutely can’t wait to stay again. The hotel has the mid century California vibe with all the modern amenities. Service was outstanding. We had such a good time we cancelled our dinner reservation in town to stay at the pool where we had drinks and food brought to our very comfortable lounge chairs. We would probably go for the lower level rooms by the pool with the sweet patios and amazing scent from the star jasmine for our next trip! "
"Front desk was wonderful! Allowed me to park car in lot and check in early. Called me when room was actually ready. Great location easy walk to everything. I even was able to walk to downtown Santa Cruz from location. This is not a luxury hotel but was clean, safe, and quiet. Great rate and perfect for an overnight getaway to the ocean. Highly recommend!"
"Very nice hotel! Breakfast is great with good coffee, fruit, eggs, oatmeal, etc. Beautiful and spacious room. Nice staff. Very clean, neat and comfortable facilities. Would stay here again! "
"Dream Inn has been perfect for our quick get aways. The location on the beach is awesome! Awesome service by the reservations staff and front desk. Parking fee is a bit steep though."
