Be ready to walk
Santa Paula InnNavigation in & out stairs, not for handicapped, greenery out back for dogs but no designated pet areas or poop bags. Walls paper thin, older building & facilities designed for pleasure, not business travelers. Some rooms near much traffic noise. Employee Ana helpful & man who gave me wake-up call door knock in am & wished me good luck.
Convenient Location
Extended Stay America Suites Temecula Wine CountrySusan @ front desk was an absolute doll & really went the extra mile to help, both on my phone calls before I arrived & with anything I needed help with. My dog loved her & gave her smiles, always a good sign! I do wish I was ground floor but 2nd worked out (except when elevator stopped working Friday afternoon.) We enjoyed kitchenette & nice table for our Thanksgiving dinner. Bed quite comfy, too.
Good amenities
La Quinta Inn by Wyndham VenturaRoom convenient to doggie walk area just outside room door, plenty of poop bags, nice continental breakfast, quiet, fridge & microwave in room. Heads up, you need to use card for payment, no cash accepted.
Homeless reside on Motel 6 fenced property
Motel 6 Ventura CA - BeachSketchy characters everywhere. Felt unsafe walking dog @ night. After our 9:30 pm walk, skipped 11:30 pm. Approached & bothered day & night (even with dog,) couldn't tell some of the clientele from the homeless outdoor residents. One approached us during daytime walk, later noticed he was living by a hotel tree, decided to walk dog in front @ night, that was even worse. One man didn't have enough sense to quit trying to pet dog when she felt as threatened as I did & growled. Felt unsafe whole time (& I'm from NYC so I'm not squeamish.) Overpriced. Disappointed with our long-awaited Beach getaway. Made reservations thru BringFido, 1st time got confirmation, then msg 'room unavailable,' 2nd time repeat, 3rd time got reservation. When I checked in, was told I had 3 rooms reserved! Straightened it out, then my reservation said 'no pets,' I said I have 1 dog. It was as if my Fido didn't exist. Not a good experience.
