Very clean. Microwave and refrigerator were great to have with a family. The included breakfast was convenient and had plenty of choices for our three young, and picky, boys. The only negative worth noting for a family is there was only a shower stall, no bathtub. A little harder setting sandy kids clean in a shower rather than soaking in a tub. Overall, a great experience.

Helpful staff, questions answered, accessible room not available. I they upgraded and put me a few doors down as close to the exit as possible noting they would notify me of emergency as I am deaf hard of hearing and other rooms don’t have notification systems. Everyone is always so helpful at HIE! Thank you for making my stay great!

Great location before visiting Channel Islands NP. There is a grocery store about a mile away to get supplies and lots of restaurants at the harbour. When checking in there is a sign pointing out that the seals can be loud if room facing the water. Our room was facing parking lot above lobby and we heard the music from lobby all night long (we had windows open to enjoy the cool California breeze). Would have preferred hearing the seals.

Breakfast was a nightmare. So many people& no seating available. We had to ask people if we could sit with them. However, food was very good. Our room was fine, very comfortable. Would stay here again.

We stayed on the 3rd floor in another bldg, our keys didn't work and we had to carry luggage up stairs. Kids were running up and down the corridore. Our room was noisy with the wind. We went to front desk, and the person there gave us a room that was more accessable and closer for us. She also gave us keys that worked. It was very busy that day, so overall it was good. Would be nice to have a restaurant in the building instead of having to drive around the harbor. It was later in the evening when we went out to eat, so we couldn't see names of restaurants. Thank you!

The rooms overlooking the marina were larger than the rooms inside. (We stayed 2 different stays so experienced both). The marina room had a large balcony that, in better weather, would have been awesome to enjoy. The beds were very high so if you have mobility issues they may pose a problem. We liked them though. The separate shower/toilet room was a bonus! The coffee bar area, great idea! The inside room felt like a let down versus the marina room. Beds, while comfy, were just plain after the "elevated" experience in the previous room. Having a typical bathroom setup was also a let down. (I paid equal prices for both rooms so the diminished experience did make me feel let down.) The breakfast area facing the marina was nice. Typical hotel continental breakfast items but remained stocked which is not the case at other hotels. In better weather, enjoying breakfast on the patio, watching boats move, sea life entertainment, and the fresh air would probably have been a highlight for us. The only mishap of our stays was a new hostess who was unfamiliar with the booking/payment system. She was very nice and I am sure will be a good addition to their crew later.

This property was nice, quiet, and clean. The reason why we gave it a 3 star was due to misinformation, when we arrived we were told that the pool was at the other hotel next to us which was a walk but they did not tell us we needed an extra key from that property to enter the pool. Also check in was at 4:00 pm instead of 3:00 pm and they charge a nightly parking fee. Other than that everything was great!
