Wonderful

We were just passing through and enjoyed our one night stay in a room with two queens. The hotel is old but well kept. Cleanliness was not an issue as everything looked great and the staff was very pleasant. You can tell they give attention to the small details that make this a wonderful place to stay. We had a great dinner at the restaurant and enjoyed breakfast in the terrarium. The room was nice but a bit cramped and there were no work stations with extra outlets to plug into so I was forced to use my laptop on a bed. The ground floor room we were in had small patio with a great view of the park and the Mission but the view was blocked by a six foot fence which is just sad. We definitely would have used the patio if the fence were not there. Maybe we'll ask for a second floor room next time we're in town.

We were greeted nice by the front desk. Computer was down so she wasn’t able to do the job for checking us in as she normally would. The room was nice but the water pressure was really bad. Our room was connected to a restaurant and loud music played all day all and tell at least 11pm. Bed was comfy. My sister has another room and her tv didn’t work. About to have their offered breakfast. Cute town.

The property and lobby are nice. The staff are great. Very nice front desk personnel. There is very little parking and have to park in an adjacent lot. Not sure about safety. The bathroom is missing a light cover with exposed wiring and loose tiles in the shower. Shower and sink both had spider in them.

Nothing exceptional, you get exactly what you pay for. The hallway carpets were noticeably old and dirty. However, the bed was firm and comfortable, which made for a decent night’s rest.

Room was clean and spacious but very dated. Bathroom mirror was desilvered, artwork and frames shabby. The a/c was tucked under a shelf without enough light to see the temperature setting. Closet hangars were bizarre.

Always a great place to stay while visiting Ventura. It’s central location to shops, businesses & restaurants can’t be beat. The staff (led by Luisa) is always helpful & friendly. And the weekend HOT breakfast is an additional benefit.

It’s close to the freeway and within walking distance of many restaurants. Bed was comfortable and breakfast was decent. The property and finishes are a little tired and could use some updating.

We loved our stay at the Clocktower Inn. It's a cute and unique hotel with convenient access to the Mission and the quaint, walkable downtown area. The room was clean and quiet. The breakfast/coffee was simple but better quality than other places we stayed. Parking on site. We were only here for one night but would have gladly stayed longer.

Very close to all in downtown. Surprised that parking is shared with the city parking lot. I had to park my vehicle on the street, which I didn’t expect. I also wished they provided more extra blankets. We were freezing and it took 30 min to get an extra blanket.
