Nice Property rooms needs some TLC
Visiting Santa Cruz for a quick weekend. Our room needed a little tlc. The walls, ceiling and curtains needed some attention; repaint, clean and replace the ripped curtain. Beds were comfortable. Refillable water stations on each floor was great to have. There were a few events during our stay which made the bar/restaurant area busy and loud. The property of the hotel was very nice in design.

Too much laundry noise
My room was next door to the in-house laundry machines. The washing machine ran nonstop until 11:00 PM. The room wasn’t that clean. Hair in the bathroom and trash on the floor in the bathroom. The room was also very run down. Lots of wear and tear. The wallpaper in the bathroom was actually stapled together.

Our usual stay in Santa Cruz
I have stayed at Hotel Paradox probably about 10 times over the past few years. The first time we stayed, we thought it was a very elegant hotel, each time since then the experience has been a little downgraded. They used to have robes for the guests to wear to the pool, they don’t anymore. Some of the lights in the room were not working right. The Pool area was rebuilt a few years ago, but they did a poor job with the lounge chairs. When the material was new, it looked fabulous now it looks stained and dirty. We still like the hotel And will probably stay there again, but it went from five stars to four stars for us.

8.5 out of 10.
Pros: I like the cool vibe and decor of this hotel. It has a great pool and in ground spa. Quiet. Cons: needs upkeep and room quality doesn't feel congruent with the price you pay.

Nice hotel but not satisfied with the service
the hotel was pet friendly which is a plus since we were traveling with our dogs, but the service was minimal. The room wasn’t done cleaning by 4pm.

Nice hotel, bad sleep.
The hotel is nice, but the sound of the lifts all night was bad. With two children it was a nightmare. The staff give us a refund as they knew it was a problem which they have every night!
