Problems
[...] The pool was closed and looked under construction.I would recommend this hotel, but they do need to get their act together and be truthful about the current state of the amenities.

Nice room, but thin walls
We stayed there just for one night, before heading to Santa Cruz Island out of Ventura Harbor the next morning. The room was newly remodeled, and except for one sticky spot on the carpet (what IS that??), the room was nice and clean. However the walls were thin, and we were awakened by partyer's in the adjoining rooms. Not much of a continental breakfast - just coffee, vending machine style danishes, and oranges. But Denny's was right next door, so we got our morning bagels there.

Quiet, Clean, and Cozy
The hotel was well maintained and the girl working the front desk was very kind and helpful. They are Dog Friendly and that makes a huge difference. The location is great, being right off of the main street in Oxnard and being walking distance to Downtown and to good shopping. The room was a bit small, but adequate for a couple and a dog. We will likely be staying there again.

Great Price for What You Get
Although the hotel was great, it was off the bus-line which made it a little more difficult to get around without a car. There was noisy traffic from the early morning breakfast clients at the attached Denny's Resturant. The carpet was filthy, and the pool could have been skimmed more often. But on the whole, if I had a car, I would definitely stay there again.

Good business stay
It was not a bad stay except that I had noisy neighbors. The room was clean and not bad for an older motel. The lobby employees were courteous as well.

Dirty
The stairs leading to the room were filthy, and pretty disgusting. The room smelled bad and was much smaller than expected. It was not a friendly place to stay and the area wasn't great.

Quick Visit
This was a quick overnight stay as we needed to be in Santa Barbara the next day. The price was reasonable and the hotel itself...while older, fit our needs. The continental breakfast was sufficient and if you find that to be not enough food there is a Denny's in the parking lot. I would stay there again
