Way Over-priced
This place is way over-priced! The room was clean however guests have to request maid service otherwise it doesn't happen. One ice machine in the whole place accessible only through the front office (a fair walk from my room). There are better properties in Ventura for the exorbitant cost of this place. The only reason I stayed here was because it was last minute.

We arrived thinking we were close to the pier as the description suggests. The pier is on the other side of the freeway. We had rented a room on Expedia and clicked for a room with a jetted tub which we did not get but thought maybe I made a mistake. After checking in we discovered the bed was amazing but the party going on across the street was very loud and guest walking by the room had no problem yelling and talking loud at their children. We couldnt take the noise so we checked out about an hour later. I am sure this place is great for people with kids but not for us. The receptionist asked if she could bring the manager out and speak with him. I told him of my issues and why we were leaving and he said if we had booked through them he could cancel it but since it was through expedia they could not. The next day we called Expedia and they called the hotel and because we had checked in refused to refund our money. We will not be gong back but the people were very nice.

Nice to walk across street to park or downtown Ventura to the store and shops. Cross walk over to the beach just a block away. Only down fall was the pet area was much to small. They certainly could have done a better job or expanded it by using more parking space in front of it.

This was an impromptu trip and we loved our stay. Our only problem was the bed. Too hard and my husband had trouble sleeping. The staff was so friendly and helpful! Excellent service and we are planning another trip back.

They remodeled the place which was nice. They put in hardwood flooring but they don’t mop it. If you walked with bare feet when you get in shower you see the black dirt coming off the bottom of them. Pretty nasty.

Hotel was as advertised. We liked how close it was to downtown which allowed us to walk to many dining options. Staff was friendly but room could be cleaner- the floors were dirty and we noticed a stained towel. Other than that the free breakfast and parking were much appreciated.
