Check in was quick and easy. Friendly front desk person, gave me a handled paper bag with fruit, granola bar and bottled water then directed me to my room. The room was spacious and clean...it had everything one could need: a microwave, small refrigerator, coffeemaker, hair dryer and iron and ironing board. It had flat screen tv , internet access... more

Very nice hotel, with private balconies right on the harbor. Ten minutes after we arrived in our room, the front desk called to see if everything was okay. The staff was very helpful and friendly. The morning breakfast was a real treat, with cooked egg dishes, bacon, sausage, that you never see in other hotels. It is very rare to... more

This is a sweet little gem located right on the ventura harbor. Its very near to the shops and restaurants of the harbor but we drove the mile to it rather than walk. The room faced the harbor and I really enjoyed falling asleep to the sounds of the sailboat poles and water and the birds. For a water view... more

The staff were courious... more

The location overlooking the harbor is so peaceful, I highly... more

Stayed here for one night to catch a concert in Ventura. The hotel is next to the harbor and seems to be a quiet area. It strangely has a large wall around the front and has a raised walk way connecting it to the next hotel. They share facilities. The hotel seemed a bit old. The lobby was small. The... more

Stopped just one night - a repeat visit for us. Excellent room, good quality and large. Good facilities at the harbour area. Ideal spot. Good breakfast. Recommended. more

We drove from the Grand Canyon back to LA and then on up the coast and needed somewhere outside LA which was reasonable, comfortable and easy to find after an eight hour car journey. Ventura is a nice spot on the coast with a buzzy marina, shops and restaurants. The HIE has been refurbished recently but unfortunately it suffers like... more
