The property was nice and easy to find. The owner was helpful, welcoming, and optimistic about our arrival since I competed at the Ventura Half Marathon. If you guys want a simple place to stay while you're out here, I'd recommend giving this place a shot.

Great location, staff is amazing. And it’s walking distance to many restaurants, shopping, and the beach.

Very nice property, well maintained and managed by very nice employees. The property sits perfectly off the Main Street. Making it more desirable to an individual or family that is looking for an affordable very nice hotel room that includes: tv, microwave, refrigerator, and coffee machine. Clean, friendly, low noise from main hwy, and location is close to excellent restaurant’s and semi fast food eateries.

Modest, but clean and more than adequate. Fairly large fridge was a nice surprise! Within walking distance is a pizza/brew restaurant and a bit farther we discovered a place with great fish tacos.

Hidden gem, great staff. Friendly service, clean accommodations. Wonderful amenities in the rooms. Great for a single person busy that needs their rest or an entire family that likes safe, clean, friendly atmosphere's and is respectful of other occupants.

Peace, finally
The accommodating price point brought me to the motel… The front desk associates were an immediate selling point. They are so kind and welcoming! The room was quiet, simple, and had everything I needed- peace, A working television, a good sized mini fridge, a microwave, and a clean bathroom with a shower and working hot water. If I could come and clean there a few days a week in exchange for the peaceful rest I finally received!? I would do it. The only points off were the cracked mirror, an arm chair that had seen better days, and a few old cigarette burns on the top comforter.

Memorable Stay
Soothing, therapeutic, relaxing, and very beautiful Indian music played softly in the background as I walked the grounds. The music, along with the quaintness and cleanliness of the rooms, made the stay special and memorable. Someday.......I will be back.

I had a class in Ventura. The Ventura Beach House Motel, was very nice. The problems was they only had 1 wash cloth in the bathroom. Also, they need an ice machine. They told my husband. Oh it’s not far there’s a liquefied store down the road. In the dark they said it was walking distance, about a quarter of a mile give or take a few steps he made it. Then he had to walk back in the dark with the ice. Other than these 2 issues we enjoyed our stay.

Am a weekly traveler to Ventura for work last 3yrs. Finally a budget motel that overdelivers - outside looks almost new, rooms clean/bed comfortable, just the opposite of the Days Inn in Camarillo where I used to stay at the same rate. Stay here!

When we checked in- they changed the price from my Expedia price- saying we owed an extra $49.95 Expedia FEE, for booking using Expedia . If Expedia charges me for using their site- I’ll never use Expedia again. The room is dirty, lamps are broken, shower head broken - No refunds - so we were stuck. My sons room had bed bugs . BED BUGS!! Do not stay here .

Woman who checked me in was so rude. Never been told NO VISITORS!” It was one of the first things out of her mouth. Called my grandson in and said had to see his drivers license..what?? It was my car, my credit card and my drivers license on counter. It was all very insulting and rude, all for a 1940’s junky, not updated motor court type motel in Ventura..a town I use to call home. Since the fair was in town, this piece of trash room cost me $287.00 because they jacked up the prices or Expedia did.. At the counter, she rented the next room for a quote of half that with me standing there! Unbelievable..
