We only stayed one night for an Eastern Star event at the Masonic lodge but we stayed here a couple of years ago and came back because we liked it. It’s close to the restaurants and shops and the lodge. We were on the seaside and you can hear the cars on the freeway, so you may want to make sure to be on the other side if that will bother you.

Decent by the beach, but problems

The place is located well, walkable to the beach and downtown. In general, it’s a decent place, having a damp carpet along the wall in the room was very strange and vaguely unhealthy. I kept wondering if there might be mold. The WiFi also was at best sketchy. I asked at the front desk and the guy said, yeah, the WiFi is spotty and I’d need to talk to the manager if I wanted to pursue it. I was there for one night, so I left it. Not particularly acceptable for a hotel now.

Great location. Walkable to many attractions and places to eat. The complementary breakfast was also a great add on. Anything that saves you money is a plus in my book. Would definitely recommend and will rebook in the future.

The parking is easy access and free, check-in easy. You have to know where to turn off Chestnut or you may put yourself back on 101 fwy southbound. The facility offers cocktails and munchies after 4pm, which is nice, but the night I checked in there was a party like gathering so no where to sit and they took over whole seating area and continued to stay till after 11pm. I know as I stayed all the way down the hall facing the driveway and I could still hear them thru my door. So rooms are not sound proof! I should have requested to move as they were so loud they echoed down the hall. They floors are likely laminate so the area in lobby echo's. I had to turn up volume on t.v., nice t.v., just to hear movie. The rooms have mini refrigerator and micro along with k coffee, nice! Overall, I would stay again but ask for upper floors. They have a nice breakfast buffet, so I really love this! This hotel use to be Country Inn in Ventura, The update is good, but coziness is gone.. Anyway, I highly recommend for families and couples that want to be close to Ocean and Downtown Ventura. Still a great place to be!!

The building makes strange sounds during the night. It sounds like equipment is charging. I could hear when the people were talking in the room next to me. The train went by 3 x and it is loud.

Fine. Weird. Loud.

The room was fine. The bed was comfortable, there was a weird half a couch. But: I foolishly paid a little extra for the "balcony." The balcony was as deep as the chairs, and sealed with windows, which opened, but we kept closed because the hotel is along the freeway, and just beyond the freeway was a train bridge (I'm sure there's a term). Loud! Oh and the bridge and the freeway on-ramp block the view of the beach and ocean. Sigh. PS: The bathroom was 99% clean. Except for the mildew on the corner of the shower.

The property was pretty dope. Easy parking and rooms were nice and clean. It had a pretty decent size pool and jacuzzi. Our blinds were broken in our room so that sucked… it would have been nice to be able to see the ocean. Also, the train goes by every 30-45 minutes so it can be pretty loud.

Great amenities for a spur of the moment overnight stay. Pool and hot-tub are finally open again after construction. Evening drinks and solid morning breakfast make for an easy and enjoyable stay, walking distance to downtown and the beach.
