Needing a few days away I chose to stay at the Terrace Court Motel. I'd stayed here years and years ago and thought I'd give it another try. You can't beat the location! Directly across from the beach and within footsteps of the Wharf. Since it was post-Labor Day when I called for my reservation I asked if they were... more

After much research on Santa Cruz lodging, we actually opted for a more budget motel, 2 blocks inland from the boardwalk. We checked in to our other place, and immediately left to recon what else was available. I originally didn't entertain the Terrace Court, because I felt it was too expensive. When my husband saw the location and vacancy sign,... more

I recently stayed at this motel that seems to be mostly on the up and up. The rooms were clean, the staff were friendly, and the location was a big plus. The only dissapointing expieience was when I rang the bell at the front lobby and was greeted by the assistant manager who appeared to be under the influence of... more

My parents and I stayed at the Terrace Court while visiting a friend for a recital. The price, while higher than the average Santa Cruz rate, was less expensive than the surrounding beach and ocean view Hotels/Motels. The front desk staff was attentive and helpful. There were some difficulties with the wireless internet, but the front desk not only had... more

It is with great saddness that we will not be coming back to the Terrace Court Motel. We have been coming there since 1956 and all our family would come and enjoy a wonderful weekend. We had always reservered the same weekend for years in advance. Familys would come from So and Northern Calif and it has been great to... more

I went to Santa Cruz with several friends on Valentines Day weekend 2009. We booked 5 rooms at the Terrace Court. All our rooms were on the second teraace. The young man who checked us in was very polite and helpful. All of our rooms were fine. Each of us had a funky, retro kitchen, with red bar stools and... more

We just stayed at the Terrace Court--what a dive! My kids had to wear flip flops in the shower, it was moldy. The sheets had hairs on them. The bedspread was stained. From the moment we walked in, I felt like sand fleas were biting me. It was very noisy as well. All around the complex it smelt like urine.... more
