Hyatt Place Santa Cruz

Hyatt Place Santa Cruz

8/10 Good
"The Hyatt was beautiful and clean and the staff were helpful. It was my mistake to not have checked the location of our second floor suite. Unfortunately our room was above the kitchen, and facing the street where the valet parking took place well into the evening. Lots of music from cars and the noise of car doors shutting. The staff did supply ear plugs so I slept fine after that. Loved the heated salt water pool and hot tub. Lovely guests and amenities. Breakfast was 5 star. Very nice and would stay again"
