Steve, Burbank, visiting Ventura Theatre
Disliked: Paid for a double room with an ocean side view - got stuck in a single with a side view due to the hotel being overbooked. Management was unable to correct the problem due to my third-party transaction.

Great hotel; worth the $$!
Liked: The room was extreemly nice! Very clean! Bed and pillows very comfortable. Staff helpful and friendly. We enjoyed the music at the bar and lunch on the pier and walking around downtown.
Disliked: We were on the second floor and our sliding doors opened onto a roof. Some guy (maybe another guest?) came running by while I was standing there. Also, didn't really like the view of the roof but it was nice to go out there and see the ocean. So not terribly bad. Next time I'll get a higher floor for a better view.

Nice stay, but not worth...
Liked: Great location, right on the beach. But the beach itself is not that nice. Rocks everywhere, and not that clean. But then again, we’re from San Diego and are spoiled by our beaches. Also, a short walking distance to restaurants and bars. Santa Barbara and Ojai are a 30-minutes drive away. Bathrooms seemed like they were remodeled. Friendly staff. Ocean view (not oceanfront) rooms. Somewhat nice if you get the rooms closer to the shore. If more towards the street, then you’re looking at the parking lot instead since hotel is perpendicular to the shore, not parallel. We paid for one of these supposed ocean view rooms. If you tilt your head just right, you will see the ocean. ;)
Disliked: While bathrooms and the lobby seemed like they were remodeled, the rooms themselves have not recently. And they’re showing their age. Sound deadening is practically nonexistent. Hwy 101 and train tracks are right outside the window. Closing the balcony sliding doors does little to keep the noise out. And it’s loud. The rooms themselves are small and so are the bathrooms. Also, the pool is tiny. I’m not expecting an Olympic sized pool, but for a hotel this large, the pool needs to be bigger. We’ve stayed here before a few years back, but I unfortunately well not be coming back.

Liked: Staff was awesome, unfortunately the bar doesn’t keep my favorite whiskey
Disliked: The bed could have been on the other side of the room, looking over the ocean instead of the parking lot
