Ventura hotel guide. Independent hotel in Ventura, California

"We have stayed here several times and have found the beds to be comfortable with a good mattress and lots of pillows. The other times we stayed, the rooms seemed new and fresh and clean. The room we had this time had an older carpet and a musty smell and was in a corner without a lot of light. Next time we will specify the room we want. The breakfast was not impressive with mostly sugary pastries, cold and hot cereals. There aren't a lot of healthy options except for some fruit. But it met our needs, was quiet, and the staff is friendly and helpful."

"Beautifully remodeled and upgraded. The rooms are not very large, yet they are well designed and comfortable. The little details, including tea, coffee, and water bottles were appreciated. My only complaint is that the windows are not sound proof, so if you are on a lower floor and facing State Street it can be a bit loud until 10-11P. The lobby bar/ lounge was enjoyable for an evening snack and beverage. Parking options, besides valet, would be a great add-on option."

"The hotel is a mix of updated and outdated. There was water damage to the bathroom cabinet, a dated bath/shower enclosure, rust on metal fixtures, bedside lamps that were starting to fall off the wall, blinds that were were starting to wear, and single-pane windows to the front of the building/ parking and hwy noise. Then the bed, drawers, and ocean facing window were clearly updated and replaced not as long ago. Breakfast was very basic and included few warm options, besides toast and bagels. The rooms do not have water kettles or coffee, so you have to access this during breakfast hours. Overall, it was lovely to have such a view and I am not sure I would stay again anytime soon."

"I would never recommend this motel 6 to anyone. First off there shampoo, soap, hair dryer, coffee maker. Beverage machine was broken, when I went to go to the office to ask for shampoo and soap the attendant was rude and said there was no soap or shampoo. This place only wants your money and could care less if your stay was good. I can’t proof it but one hour after we checked out we got an alert from our bank and was told someone was trying to use our credit card and this was the only place I used my card. They should give us a total credit refund because this motel is operated poorly and by bad management. Even when we got there to check in there was a bad disturbance and the police were in the parking lot looking for the people causing the problem. No one wants to stay at a motel and get bad service, unfriendly management, and have problems there and police officers roaming the building."

"Pretty place to stay. The staff was so helpful and friendly. Close to most things from what I seen. I would stay again"

"Pros: beautiful hotel! -fancy -close to the beach -great staff service -yummy restaurant on site (overpriced but it was still delicious) -very clean -the heated floors in the bathroom are 10/10 Cons: bugs in room. -We found a couple spiders, one on the bed and a few just in the room. -the bed is very firm. I have a Temperpedic so I’m used to a softer bed and my back really hurt. -The pillows are awful, flat and uncomfortable. For such an expensive hotel, I think the bedding is lacking big time."

"Friendly staff and clean room. "
