We liked the location, a 5 minute walk from the Ventura Music and Concert place. The room was clean, and check in was quick. The exterior could use some cosmic paint, and the pipes rattled a bit for a minute after flushing. This is an ‘old school” style 70’s motor lodge were you park in front of your room. I would stay here again.
Pros. Gentleman at front desk was informative & courteous.
Cons. Bed blankets & bathroom towels were stained (but not dirty).
Pros. The room and bed were comfortable and clean.
Cons. No ice machine on site.
Pros. Clean room, comfortable bed. Very friendly staff. Very pleasant experience overall.
Cons. Nothing major. The Lysol they use to clean room between guests is a bit too pungent when walking in. Opening window for an he clears it up. Not a huge issue
Pros. The staff were extremely friendly/helpful with suggestions regarding where to go in town for nice restaurants, groceries,etc. The room was clean, stylishly decorated, and comfortable.
Cons. The only thing that was missing were kleenexes.
Pros. Clean room. Comfy enough bed. I talked to the owner for a bit. I really appreciate that he is actively renovating to fancy the place up, and doing a great job of it too. Don't judge this place based on the street view!
Cons. Nothing. More than expected, especially for the money.
