Comfortable beds and spacious room with nice tv. WiFi was spotty. One pillow case had lipstick and a boot print on it and one towel was not clean. Quiet space.

Dirty small rooms with little privacy and gross smoking area right outside the room. Sketchy area and homeless people walking around. Property manager was rude and refused to offer refund for early checkout.

The Hitching Post Inn was better than I expected in person. My s.o. and I really enjoyed our stay. Our room was very clean, spacious and with a modern style interior. Too bad the exterior of the property doesn't match the interior. The only con were the king sized bed and pillows, they were too firm. Made for a restless night. Overall, this was a good overnight spot.

This was perfect for our family of 5. The kitchen was a huge help. We did have to bring some of our own pans and utensils but so worth it. (U can ask to borrow at the front desk). We would definitely stay again. Its nicely updated. The only thing outdated was the couch, curtains and the top cover for the beds. The actual blanket did have bleach stains, and the beds are a bit hard for my liking. But overall it was perfect.

Nice, Friendly Place to Stay In Santa Cruz
Check in was easy and we were upgraded to a bigger room because we were repeat customers. We chose this hotel for its proximity to our favorite local brewery - Sante Adarius - walking distance. One little hiccup. When we got to our room, the A/C control had a dead battery and wouldn't run. The manager took care of it right away. Great Service!
