Hotel was still under construction but inside was was great. Breakfast and cocktail hour was exceptional as was the service. Underground parking safe and convenient. Freeway noise a little annoying, but will definitely going back in October. Friendly family atmosphere!
Would not stay here again or recommend it.
Right next to freeway and even closer to train tracks! Air conditioner was noisy and rattled even when on fan-only
Comfortable and clean. Safe and quiet.
Property is close to beach and downtown Ventura, walkable to many restaurants. Only real downside is next to the freeway and train.
It smelled good when I entered the hotel. Room was clean except that the bathroom had mold around the shower caulking and I had to have room service come in an clean it up. They had a 'hookless' shower curtain but there wasn't a shower liner so initially a lot of water ended up on the floor. Reported it but nothing was done. The bathroom sink was a bit back up and asked maintenance to fix but not much changed after they left. All in all the stay was good except for the issue listed.
The inside of the hotel is beautiful. I was surprised at how quiet it was on the inside being right next to the freeway. The staff is very friendly and helpful. The only negative was that the shower handle was broken when we arrived and we couldn't turn on the shower water at first.
Friendly and prompt service.
Odd location, front desk staff was just ok. Building is older than expected.
Close to restaurants and about a 12 min walk to beach. Hotel was ok. The beds did not look polished or tucked in tight but room was clean despite the hotel smell. Nice staff. Hot breakfast with many options.
The hotel was close to where I needed to be
Clean rooms, close to restaurants
Our room was spacious and very clean. The location is absolutely PERFECT. A park, brewery, and multiple restaurants are all within a short walk, as is the beach! The pool was closed "due to Covid" and the breakfast was laughably awful--worse than what my kids gets from her public school cafeteria. I know there are still various restrictions due to Covid, but it seemed like the pool should be open by now and if they can't serve a decent breakfast they should just not, until they can again. But overall, an easy and pleasant stay, and we'd stay here again.
The place has gotten a major refit. The pool area is a full construction zone at this writing so no sunbathing. My gripe is that terrible packet of gross creamer for you room coffee maker. This place is way to nice now for that ghetto motel option.

We're sorry about your disappointments. The AC in your room will be checked by our team. Unfortunately, we are limited in what we can do about the freeway and train tracks. Guests who are concerned about the noise will request a room on the side facing away from the freeway/ocean. Thank you for giving us a chance.
Comfortable and clean. Safe and quiet.
Thanks for being our guest in Ventura!
