Uniquely classic 50s. Loved the old fashioned bathroom- so much like the home I grew up in. Two blocks from waterfront!! Closest neighbor a city park. Even a screen door. Price unbeatable. I don't particularly like cold, sterile modern (or fancy) hotels. Ventura was super clean, accessible and classic.

Whatever you are going to pay for this room is not a deal. Neighbors, whom I believe live there, were noisy late into the night outside our door. Janky parking. Room smelled horrible. Cobwebs, dead bugs on the walls, mystery stains...... Just gross. I would not have stayed if my husband hadn't been with me, felt unsafe. I took photos of the bugs and stains and cobwebs, but the app won't let me post them.

Very unfriendly welcome upon arrival. Desk clerk heavily emphasized the consequences of damage to the room, as if he were expecting we had destructive plans, and was very annoyed when asked for details about turning in the key Room was clean, functional. and quiet. Advertised breakfast was a complete failure Just four bagels, two yogurts, and orange juice were available when we were the first ones in for breakfast in the morning. Upon inspection all the bagels were moldy. When a new package of five bagels were brought out, these were all moldy, too, and that was all they had, so no breakfast.

Beautiful city that we would like to return to next year. The Badger Car Ferry was the reason we stayed at Ventura.

This was for one nights stay and that’s all we could take. The room is depressing to be in. One of those small darker looking rooms that was old and didn’t look clean. The woman that checked us in was about as personable as a brick in the face. We would not ever stay here again. That’s all I can say.

Just don’t.
Clean enough where I didn’t feel the need to leave but there was food in our fridge and dead mosquitos on the walls. There was a locked door with a light on under it that the lobby told me not to worry about. I assume it was a non-functional “luv tub” so they should have just said that. But also why was the light on? The bed was clean but uncomfortable. The prime location is the only upside to this place.
