Hotwire Hotel: help identifying 1 * hotel in Santa Cruz

[signcycle]

Hi.. I am hoping you can help me identify a 1 star hotel in Santa Cruz for $53 dates of my stay are 10/16/13 - 10/19/13. I usually don't consider a hotel that is only rated 1 * , but the fact that it is 100% recommended has piqued my curiosity.

Amenities:

High Speed internet

Free Parking

Pet friendly

Thanks for you help!

Are you still seeing pet friendly when searching for these date/s and viewing this listing? I'm seeing the other two but not pet friendly.

I wouldn't recommend going on the HOTWIRE % score, which has been seen to change from search-to-search and is not always a strong indicator of a particular hotel (it may be 100% recommended out of not that many people at all, especially if it's new to the service.) I may be seeing a different listing because I'm not seeing pet friendly, but the one I'm seeing has 100% recommended, but fairly medicore scores on the categories (cleanliness, location, etc) on the detail page. Overall, going on the 100% recommended can be a risk.

Thank you for using the board's HOTWIRE or PRICELINE links to start your purchases and searches.

Also, note that it's 100% recommended based upon "0 + total reviews" reviews... so it's likely only been reviewed once or twice. As well, if you look at the ratings breakdown of 'condition of hotel, quality of service, room comfort, etc, etc' i don't think there is anything there that stands out as noteworthy indicating that you're going to be blown away by this property.

Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases.

Thanks for your replies.. I see what you mean about the individual ratings for cleanliness etc. i will keep searching as we are still several months out.

Thanks again!
