I had a mixed experience with EV charging, which is what prompted me to write this review. However, in the interest of fairness, I am also including all the other aspects of my stay. Location: Excellent! Just a few minutes walk from the core of the Los Gatos business district, which is very cute and filled with restaurants and shops. Hotel grounds: A lovely garden courtyard that is clean and well maintained. Room interior: Clean and spacious. It was equipped with a mini fridge, microwave, and even proper plates and silverware. The shower was not enclosed and did not have a curtain, so it had a tendency to get water in the rest of the in the long, skinny bathroom despite best efforts to avoid it. Hotel breakfast: Prepackaged muffins and similar. EV charging: Unfortunately access to the chargers was intermittent. There are 3 chargers (one non-Tesla, 2 Tesla), which is excellent for a building of less than 30 rooms. Charging is free, which was a nice unexpected perk. Day 1: I arrived after the office closed at 10 PM. The EV chargers are installed in locked cabinets, so I was not able to access them on my first night. Day 2: The code provided by the front desk did not unlock the charger. The front desk used a key to unlock it. Day 3: At 9:30 PM, I learned that the hotel does not allow overnight charging; a non-guest might unplug my car and charge their car at cost to the hotel. This struck me as a bad reason. I was not able to charge before departure.

Disliked: Amenities
The hotel owner was extremely nice. I didn’t like the fact that the cable TV was not working the entire time, the ceiling fan was broken, the AC unit was stuck on two modes of cold, the luggage lift did not work causing tenets to have to pull their belongings around to the street, then back into the property. I’m sure that the owner would have prorated the cost in compensation, but I feel that Expedia won’t care to make any adjustments. That would be the right thing to do, but again, I don’t think that Expedia corporation will do that.

A three day stay in the county of Santa Cruz. Many shops, restaurants, and coffee shops within walking distance. Convenient level 2 charging for my EV. Nice and adequate kitchen for simple meals to enjoy. The only downside is the mattress was in dire need of replacement. Everything else was great.

AVOID ADJOINING ROOMS

Do Not stay in a room with a door to an adjoining room. It sounds like the people in the next room are talking right outside your door.

Good hotel in good location in Los Gatos. Older Spanish style hotel that’s a little worn but comfortable. Would be a great hotel with some work.

I booked a patio room. It was small but very comfortable and very quiet, which I love. The patio is beautiful and quite peaceful. I had my coffee there both mornings. I highly recommend The Purple Onion for coffee and a quick bite. Wonderful b breakfast sandwiches, good vibes, outdoor seating and great for people watching. I would start here again.
