Rooms are dated, updates are being dohe for mattresses at min currently. Our room had carpet that turned our socks black, and the floor in the bathroom tyrned the towels black from existing dirt. The location is PRIME if youvwant beach access, marina access, and downtown access (all 2 blocks). The staff was all bery friendly and accommodating with refils on paper goods and towels. A little TLC and this motel could be the hotest one available!

Based on the outside pic, I thought the Ventura would be a quirky, vintage motel. However, I found the room horrible. Broken soiled furniture, cramped quarters, doorless hangerless closet, plus a (working!) window air conditioner. There was a crappy little table that you could use either as a table, or for your luggage, but not both simultaneously. There's nowhere else for your luggage other than the bed or the floor. The lobby was interesting with its plexiglass partition separating me from the attendant. Quirky indeed! And speaking of the floor, thank goodness it was NOT carpet. At least with the vinyl plank my socks could detect the overall cleanliness. Yes, it had a TV. fridge and coffee maker, and the room was clean ...enough (I chose not to look too closely.) I needed a convenient place to stay to sail the following morning on the SS Badger car ferry. I guess the room suited that need, but at $125/night, I'll find somewhere else next time.

I would definitely stay here again, it is a motel so it’s nothing fancy but it was very clean. For the location the price was really good. It was less than a ten minute walk to the beach and less than five away from house of flavors which I would definitely recommend. Check in and check out was easy and nice owners.

And We had a room that had a hot tub in it. It had a door to it. I thought added bonus. It was dirty and nasty. When i asked the front desk about cleaning it ip, he said there was no hot tub in that room. We argued. Then he told hr that it was broken and the people before id broke the lock off the door.he wasnt very friendly.

Remove your carpet
Carpet was disgusting, could not walk on it barefoot unless you wanted nasty black stickiness on your feet.

Just Ok.
Older motel style. Some mold in the shower. Bed was comfy, room was spacious. Location was good. Just coffee in the morning. Not worth the price that we paid.
