Roof constuction started prompley at 8am...after a night out on the town, that was not what we were looking forward to. There was a large crack in one of the windows and door knob to closet bent in. Staff at front desk said to tal to manager who was off until the next day and wouldn't even come close to talking about any of the issues. This place good be nice, even great, but due to poor managment and subpar service its only benifit is when you leave.

The little hotel is quaint- nice change from the cookie-cutter chain hotels. The floors are wood in the rooms, and there are nice homey touches. Cons: the bed was just average, the TV was really small. Good price though! Easy to find as well.

Rustic Ventura
The entire hotel needs an update. You could describe it as “rustic” but that would apply generally not to specifics such as scratchy sheets and a very dated bathroom with no grab bars for older folks. The breakfast was adequate except that the orange juice was so old it tasted fermented. Overall for the price it was sufficient but not enticing enough to warrant another stay.
