Babbling Brook Inn

We had an excellent stay there and will visit again. It was a good value considering the other very overpriced hotels in Santa Cruz during high season. There was some road noise from the room but overall, the setting compensated for that aspect.

No receptionist to check you in. Place was dirty floors sticky carpet stained. No lighting.

Bad neighborhood, room was okay but needs repairs

Good location and very serene outdoor setup. Rustic theme property. Room was ok, lot sunlight. Manager was very accommodating and very helpful helpful.

This was a cozy and dry

This place is so beautiful. The manager was amazing! We had mixed up days and she corrected it and gave us a perfect room with a balcony! We will be back and recommend it to friends!

Needs work, kind let property go, dusty under bed, leaking shower, road in front is busy.

Old but nice

The property is unique and very quaint. They used to have a wonderful breakfast and evening drinks. That stopped with Covid sadly. There is no one on site, save for a housekeeper during the day. You have to get your key through a lock box. Property now looks worn and in need of upkeep, with bits of trash about on the grounds. The once beautiful planters are sparse. I hope it can get back to its former state. Santa Cruz is tough for hotels, very expensive and not a lot of quality. The pictures of the rooms are from many years ago. It’s just been neglected.

Charming and serene location with great views from the veranda. The staff was very friendly and went out of their way to make us comfortable. The manager was also very generous and gave us a late checkout. Highly recommend this affordable option for Santa Cruz.
