Clocktower Inn Ventura

Clocktower Inn Ventura

10/10 Excellent
"Oh, Geez. It's California. You walk into the room and the floor is red tile. The far wall is glass panes with thin metal framing right out of some kind of period correct thirties dream, because they are really that. You should stay there and write your own west coast Noir."

"I wish I had the names of the 2 different girls at the front desk. The first night we stayed the front desk was amazing and so helpful. The second night not so much. She lacked enthusiasm about her job and experience. Nice enough but frustrating. Overall we would definitely stay there again"

8/10 Good
"My husband stepped into the tub shower and when he turned on the water it became very slick and he fell backwards hitting his back on the back edge of the tub resulting in a cracked/severely bruised rib … they must use some kind of cleaner that made it so slippery …. We found a rubber floor mat and put in to finish further showers during our stay …. It should be posted to definitely use the rubber mat."
