"We liked that it was close to the Channel Islands boat dock.
The breakfast was "meh." The sausage sandwich was loaded with cholestrol and sodium.
If you need a restroom before checkin, you're out of luck. "

"Excellent location for location to Channel Islands NP. Had a balcony overlooking the harbor. Be aware flooding happens in this area if there are large storms, it can flood the parking lot. "
"I travel a lot and this was one of the best "free" breakfast I have had at any hotel. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Room was clean and looked as if it had been recently remodeled. Will definitely stay again. "
"Staff was very professional and nice. Beautiful gardens. Clean linen. Everything in the room worked. Easy walk down to the beach and near downtown, but still quiet."
"I liked the size of the room. Plenty of room for two queen beds.
I didn’t like that there are zero amenities. I miss the restaurant that used to be on property. It was good dood and so convenient. "

"Carpets were filthy in hallways ways & elevator floors.? Room key lock out right at 11:00 when elevators are at maximum occupancy and can’t get bell hop because of everybody checking outat the same time.

A verified traveler stayed at Crowne Plaza Ventura Beach, an IHG Hotel
"Beautiful property in idyllic spot. Staff were very accommodating. Just a lovely spot to spend the day. Many reviewers fixated on the age of the property and signs of wear. If you are an expecting a freshly refurbished generic midrange hotel, you won’t find it here. But you will find a well appointed and charming hotel that doesn’t skimp on comfort. "
