Adobe on Green Street Bed and Breakfast, Santa Cruz

Refreshingly, Adobe on Green St. in not your ordinary bed & breakfast. Forget lacey curtains and cabbage rose wallpaper because you won't find it here. What you will find is a tastfully understated decor with little in the way of superfluous clutter. That's not to say however that it is not beautiful or cozy. Quite the opposite. Adobe's decor is an exercise in quality over quantity. The home is true to it's old world roots where things are simple and have function, materials are unique and of high quality, and the feeling of "home" depends little on how much stuff one has accumulated. It's just delightful. Other highlights- internet computer available, great simple breakfast with organic options, lovely gardens, and great location to downtown. Only downside- I couldn't score large on service because we never actually met our hosts. They make arrangments for people to self-check in if no one is going to be around which was the case for us. Staff were around, but never really addressed us as guests. They could work on that.
