Very nice prop. Great amenities. Wife loved makeup cubicle and large updated bathroom with comfort toilet. Only knock was floor needs to be washed frequently. Walking on vinyl tile after bathing, feet were dirty.

Good hotel

Pros: Location to the coast and beds were comfortable. By the way, I am a little picky sometime:)
Location: The excursion to Santa Crus Island is very close.
I would definitely stay here again. Rooms were clean and updated. A little noisy from some construction but didn't bother us. Front desk was nice and breakfast was very good.

Great Location

Pros: Rooms very clean, newly renovated. Very nice breakfast. Having the tv remote sanitized and put in a bag is a nice touch. Comfortable beds.
Location: Lots within walking distance, plenty of great restaurants lot of shopping. The walk along the ocean is right behind the hotel. Movie theater close by
Excellent location, so much within walking distance. Hotel undergoing renovation and we were in one of the redone rooms. Nicely done, clean, simple and decent size rooms. We were in a room facing the ocean, freeway and commuter train line. Room was well soundproofed so freeway noise was only noticeable if a window was open. The commuter train doesn't really run very late (I didn't really notice the times) so it really wasn't and issue. Housekeeping kept the room very clean and neat and were very prompt.

The front desk clerk was checking me in and making phone calls at the same time, customer service didn't seem to be all that important. After she was done with her phone calls the clerk was helpful and guided me with maps and answered my questions.

Near the harbor and beach and great staff.

We were surprised when we drove up and saw that it looked more like a motel - two stories with no elevator. However, once inside the room, it looked as good, if not better, than any Marriott Courtyard we'd stayed in. Updated beautifully and extremely clean. The free breakfast was really a surprise as well, with numerous choices, including many healthy ones, and also very good. I usually stay at Hiltons or Marriott's, but Ventura was fully booked so we found this one. Overall rating is 4 only because it did cost us $156 plus tax & fees to stay for one night, which was a bit high - but we booked at the last minute (same evening) on a Thursday night during the busy month of July, so I guess that's to be expected. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful. Great place for families to stay.
