Liked: Cleanliness
Disliked: Staff & service, amenities
The person who checked us in and out, was passive aggressive and disinterested in his job. He was not welcoming, showed no emotion other than disinterest. At check out he chose to continue processing room cards, with his back turned, and imagine knew we were at the desk for check out He did not turn around to help until I verbally cued him to acknowledge him. The description of "ocean view" fails to acknowledge the property is across the Freeway and near railroad tracks, with a very loud train. Appreciate location to Main Street in Ventura and free parking. And ability to walk across the freeway by bridge to the ocean and boardwalk. Breakfast items that should be hot were COLD and coffee was weak (like flavored water). Staff at the dining area were friendly, caring and invested in making the experience positive, and memorable to those eating breakfast. Confused to see two LARGE dogs on property with guests headed to the elevator when the "policy" is no dogs, except service dogs. It appears that those not guest of the hotel were allowed in and headed to the elevators. Very Sketchy people. I will not return to this property due to noise level at night, high price for location, indifference of the person checking and closing us out, the train railing and freeway.

Comfortable and Convenient

This hotel was a comfortable and convenient place for us to stay while visiting friends in Ventura. The front desk clerk was the only staff member we interacted with and he was very nice. The bed was comfortable and the room was clean which are the two most important criteria as far as we are concerned. The place was also quiet which is always a plus. We recommend staying here.

I thought it was a nice property, but it did not have an ocean view. The hotel was clean. The room was spacious. Breakfast was good. For cocktail hour they had beer and wine and snacks, which was really nice.

Amanzi at Ventura

Most comfortable bed we ever slept on in a hotel. Stayed one week. Walked to Ventura pier twice a day. Complementary breakfast was not bad AND convenient BUT free wings and beer on Thursday night will bring me back! Also every member of the staff was incredibly helpful and friendly.

First time in Ventura, and the Amanzi was well positioned to make our stay as good as it could be. It’s just blocks away from both the beach and Ventura’s funky downtown area. Really nice place.
