Simple Overnight Stay

Nice, clean overnight stay while on a family road trip. Breakfast was included and there was something for everyone. The only bummer was the hotel was stingy with their ice. All the other hotels we stayed at on our 8 day road trip made plenty of ice machines available for guests - making it easy for us to keep our family’s food cold in the ice chest. Best Western was specific in only allowing to use their small bucket for ice and having to walk all the way to the lobby area to get it. Just an odd quirk that ended up standing out after comparing them to the other stays on our trip. Overall, we had a good sleep and moved on to our next destination.

Property and facilities were great. Area around is high density Ventura. Fine for us as we were passing through. Would recommend as an inexpensive and reliable stop for any road trippers. Breakfast was solid, staff was friendly.
