"great place"


𝑮𝒐𝒐𝒅, 𝒄𝒍𝒆𝒂𝒏, 𝒊𝒏𝒆𝒙𝒑𝒆𝒏𝒔𝒊𝒗𝒆 𝒐𝒗𝒆𝒓𝒏𝒊𝒈𝒉𝒕 𝒎𝒐𝒕𝒆𝒍 𝒊𝒇 𝒚𝒐𝒖'𝒓𝒆 𝒂 𝒕𝒓𝒂𝒗𝒆𝒍𝒆𝒓 𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝒏𝒆𝒆𝒅 𝒂 𝒅𝒆𝒄𝒆𝒏𝒕 𝒔𝒍𝒆𝒆𝒑. Room was fine for what it was. It was the 2nd barest motel room I've ever stayed in (1st was in Santa Rosa), but it did have a tiny microwave. On the other hand, there were enough clean towels (for one person) and the sheets were clean and crisp. I've slept on better mattresses but this one was pretty firm, didn't sag and I fell asleep quickly. I DID NOT wake up with any bedbug bites! This is really important when considering cheaper accommodations when you're on the road. HPSI does have a pool and it's not far from the beach, but I didn't take advantage of either. I was on the road and was just passing through, but it was fine for an overnight stay. If you're traveling alone and you just need a last minute, clean, cheap (for the area) place to crash for the night with very few amenities, Hitching Post Studios Inn was for me, a good choice. It may be for you too.

𝑾𝒆𝒍𝒍 𝒄𝒂𝒓𝒆𝒅 𝒇𝒐𝒓, 𝒄𝒍𝒆𝒂𝒏 𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝒄𝒐𝒎𝒇𝒚. The property is older, but it is freshly painted, comfortably furnished and immaculate. We had a big kitchenette with a stove/oven, microwave, coffeemaker, etc. The kitchen was in an adjoining room and had a table by a window for eating or setting up to use like a desk, so I could work while my husband slept or watched TV. The family that runs the place is very nice. The motel is off a busy road, so If you are looking for picturesque, this is not the place. But we weren't lounging around at the motel much, so it was a great value & I'd stay there again.

Love this place! Every time I come to Santa Cruz I hope and cross ky fingers that this place isn't all booked and I usually seem to get blessed with a room thankfully. But ya, you won't regret staying here that's for sure, motel staff is super friendly, if you're in luck you might find Danny around I think hes the boss man. Super cool dude you can ask him for anything. Rooms always super clean, never had a complaintBest value motel in Santa Cruz hands down. Great location too, right where you want to be.👍👍👍👍

I would stay here again! The front desk manager was extremely helpful and kind. When there was a minor internet issue he made sure to get it fixed ASAP. He was able to accommodate all my needs and the room was comfortable. I think they also recently replaced all their mattresses so that was really nice too. Thank you!

The rooms were very clean. No mold in the shower and the water was hot thanks to the solar panels.Bed was very comfortable. Owner was very accommodating when I locked myself out of my room. After researching hotels before booking with Hitching post, all reviews were good and the more expensive hotels had complaints of cockroaches, bed bugs, and problems with people breaking into vehicles overnight. I will definitely book with Hitching Post next year when I return.
