Hotel is in a good location to Main Street but the hotel is old and desperately needs an upgrade all around. The rooms and elevators smell old and musky and the bathrooms are falling apart. Staff was nice enough and accommodating when we asked to move rooms. I would not recommend this hotel even for the budget.

The staff at the front desk was very friendly when we checked in at 8 PM. However, the room was not ready and we had to wait for 20 minutes for the room to be ready. Then once inside the room we realized how small the beds were. Definitely not twins definitely not queens and as my son put it, princess size. And once my family took showers the room became so humid it was unbearable. The most disturbing thing about the hotel, was the parking situation. You had to find parking in a downtown environment and on a Friday and Saturday night it was extremely difficult to find parking near the hotel. The local area appeared to be very unsafe and in the morning when I went out to go get my car, I encountered an unruly gentleman who is in a full on fight with the clouds. Definitely would not recommend this hotel unless you were staying for one night and it was the only hotel available in the Ventura area.

We enjoyed our stay in this beautiful hotel. However, bring your own soap because what the hotel provides are tiny, about the size of a silver dollar. Also our bed made popping noises every time we moved, and we were moving a lot, haha. Hope we didn't keep anyone else up.
