Overall great staff although no breakfast was provided like it was advertised.
Rod
No frills and good location
Brad
Its an older hotel so some wear and tear. But clean. Staff wonderful...so friendly. My husband and I agree that those beds were the BEST. Slept so good.
Debora
The service was good, but the room's condition was poor. The mattresses and pillows were stained, there was a hole in the carpet, the desk chair was broken, and the tub was \"fixed\" with white duct tape.
David
Mattress felt like cement my back still hurts. Sleeping n those hard ass mattress

Louis
Yes
Elaine
Room was spacious however needs updating
Lucia
The Hotel need a lot of updates, very old. Super old.
Gloria
You can call the hotel ahead of time and ask for accommodations that fit your needs, like downstair rooms since they have no elevator and walk in showers if you're disabled etc., the ac works well and has different settings and can be used for heating as well. we don't know if it has a pool, we weren't there for it, we have family close by and its easier and more convenient than to overcrowd the in-laws,
Lavern
Everything about that place it was gross the floors were nasty
Angelica
Room had cockroaches and ac didn’t work
Tyrell
Not like photos
Was not expecting what I booked the carpet was dirty bathroom seat was not stable beds were super low like on the floor and mattress was wore out. No elevator if you have a handicap condition definitely don’t recommend. Wouldn’t stay here again
thomas z
Room was too hot, A/C would turn off then on throughout the night, room was a little run down, I was actually considering sleeping in my truck, definitely won’t be staying here again
Kaitlyn
Good for price
Luis
Never again
Bed was old and broken, stained and uncomfortable to sleep in. Woke up with a sore, mattress was heavenly worn down. Worst mattress ever.
Ryu
Very happy with this visit all around. The staff were extremely friendly and easy to talk to, the room was absolutely amazing for the price, and it was in the perfect location for me and my partner to travel about and enjoy the town. Definitely going to be marking this place down for any further vacations down here. Thank you guys so much!!
John
We had to stay because there was no room at my in laws. Hotel room bathroom was dirty. Looked like it had dried mucus and dried poop on the wall of the bathroom. Walking down the stairs, a window sil had some chewed up gum on it right in the open
Marc
The maid service was great but other than that the hotel's not much
Michal
Dirty, disgusting, we had to leave the hotel and find another one. Of course no refund.
carol
Honestly, I didn't like anything about this property. It did not have an elevator and would have made things very difficult for my sister (who uses a walker) had they not switched rooms for us from the second to the first floor. The room itself was dimly lit with fluorescent lights. The furniture was garage sale comparable. The refrigerator stopped working and all of our food spoiled.
graciela
We had an excellent day. Great customer service. Thank you.
Sumin
Dirty
Martin
Place was awesome, staff very attentive and the food was great. But being a high end place and for the price, hearing the train every 4 hours or so in the day, hearing people yelling at night… made me question spending the money I spent there. Great view, nice room sure but the tranquility wasn’t there if you’re REALLY looking to relax. Just my opinion, if your into bar hopping and the night life go for it. If you’re looking for peace, it’s not worth the money.

Great service.
Abelardo Herrera
I like the fact that they will accommodate you as much as possible to fit your needs, we originally had an upstairs room but since they have no elevators, we asked to change downstairs and with a walk-in shower due to our disabilities and they were more than happy to accommodate us
Eric
Disliked that the hotel says two queens beds and they are not queens they are full too small for two people. Not a big problem but low noise all night
Elizabeth
This hotel needs to review its lighting design. In my room I had one switch which lit up two very bright white ceiling lights. That was it. No lights by the bed, no lamps, no ability to modulate the light. We who stay in motels often use the bed as the main piece of furniture. That's where lights should focus. Plus they did not have coffee!!!
yanira d
the beds we're too small , carpetin the hall way looks dorty and old

Roaches. Minimal toilet paper. Furniture in disrepair. Bed was comfy. Bathroom was updated and in good repair. Hoping there were no other bugs. Oh and thin walls leading to hearing your neighbors Would not recommend. Would not stay again.
Christina
Friendly people and clean
Jeffery
The property was very, very disappointing. The person at the front desk could not even take their eyes off of the TV to talk with you long enough to find out what room we should have. Finally in the room we had no towels no soap no Kleenex no toilet paper no blanket. Had to go to the desk to ask for some things we never did get toilet paper had to go buy ourselves. It was basically a bear blank room. The TV was maybe 24 inches and it could be turned on and off and that is all. Would never recommend it. The only reason we ended up having to stay was because we could not find anything else available.
Cecilia
Tv doesn’t work. Only 1 chair in room. Fridge not cooling.
Anette

Jasmine
Roaches in the room
AnaLaura
Super out dated facility. Needs urgent fixing, carpets lifted, out dated furniture, roaches behind the fridge, the room was double bed booked for 4 people and the bathroom had 2 towels, check in was quick and easy.
Antelma
Thanks you
Amy
We went here because we were on the road and wanted a cheap place to just sleep. Spend 20 more and stay somewhere else. The mattress is stained, old and hard. Pillows are lumpy,The fridge did not work, no coffee (in lobby or the room) no ice. This hotel was very outdated. It lacked even the basic of the basics.
Joseph
It was alright
Verified traveler
Wouldn't stay there ever again.
Arrived 30 mins early room was not ready switched rooms. Had to ask for lock to be taken off pool door to enter hot tub had cement debree in it due to being old. Room had really bad smell and in need of many upgrades. Old rolls of toilet paper from previous guest no new rolls in room. Hard beds and really old. Was awakened day of checkout with smoke alarm at 9am did not turned off for about 10 mins and was questioned twice if we had anything on or if we used iron (rude)/annoying. Blood stains on carpet and really dirty carpet. If you want wi-fi make sure to ask otherwise they wont give it to you. Only 2 towels for a 4 guest stay. Id asked from my wife to check in? When I was the one booking the room. $100 additional hold for deposit.

Kathy
Like this place very much
Alfredo
We found the hotel with a good presentation but when we entered the room they had cockroaches running around the room and we decided better to retire
Robin
Front desk person was friendly and efficient. Room smelled awful and we traced the
stinky sour bile smell to an area on the bedspread. Removed spread and asked front desk to take it out of the room, but not before the stench had got onto my husband’s clothes that he had to wear to an event. When we returned after the event the smell lingered in the room and it was difficult to sleep. Also the headboard of the bed had two big areas sticky to the touch where we assume many peoples’ heads had been. One of the grossest motel rooms we’ve ever experienced.

AWFUL customer service!!! Don’t waste your money on this place! Front desk was extremely rude! We weren’t greeted when we arrived. The lady at the front desk was then very rude because I arrived 20 min early for my check in time. So I waited patiently. Then when it was time to check in she continued to be rude. I talked with other guest and they all had a similar experience. I regret staying here. I would of left but it was thanksgiving night and there was no other place to stay!!

Fast check in & friendly staff
Check in was fast and simple thanks to using hotels.com! After check in I needed assistance in my room and I was helped immediately. AC system worked great but whoever was staying above my room had heavy feet, sounded like a child.
Elena
Staff was excellent, price good but condition of the building and rooms were poor at best. Obvious the owners do reinvest any profits back into the business. Card reader on room door was broken, back door to the parking lot was busted open and would not close (safety issue), tv remote did not work, and toothbrush stick in sink drain. My biggest complaint Is that the entry light was motion sensitive and every time you went you to the restroom it triggered and stayed on for 10 minutes. The light is extremely bright and lights up the room so you can’t get back to sleep until it goes off.
Staff was really helpful and considerate. I give them a A and the hotel a C-.

Property convenient off the freeway. Disappointed that there were no extra rolls of toilet paper in the room.
Verified traveler
The place is OK, for a cheap hotel, but don't expect much in terms of the service. We asked twice for extra pillows and they never arrived. The bathroom was clean but the towel hanger was broken, as was one of the lights. They do clean the room every day, but they have not washed the carpets in a long time and they are stained. The side door to the motel will not work with the room key. The place is conveniently located: close to Ventura and Ojai.
