This was absolutely one of the nicest motels I’ve ever stayed in. It’s nicer than any hotels I’ve stayed at in a while too. Everything was brand new. I love that it didn’t have carpet anywhere as well. Bed was extremely comfortable and bathroom was spotless. Would recommend!

The manager is one of the best and seems to genuinly care about each guest even if they booked through third party. This is one of a kind as far as the manager, hotel, and staff goes

What a pleasant surprise!! We were trying to save money and willing to sacrifice a little quality. We saved the money but we didn’t have to sacrifice quality at all. This place was fantastic! Whoever did the remodel on this gem really knew what they were doing. It’s gorgeous. It was the first night of a two week road trip and what a great start. I hope the rest of our rooms, as we travel up the west coast come close.

Everything seemed brand new! Bed was very comfortable, towels were soft and absorbent, tv was huge and worked perfectly, shower had plenty of hot water with a rain shower head. Very nice. Would definitely stay here again. Just wish it had a coffee maker or continental breakfast or even just coffee in the lobby.

A clean bed and a shower, nothing else. Which is good, just what you need sometimes. We walked to Madewest brewery on the pier, enjoyed some seafood while looking at the ocean. So nice. The room has no kettle or coffeemaker, but a 24-hour McDonald’s is less than 5 minute drive.

The property was fine, room was comfortable, convenient enough for walking downtown, or a simple car ride. The room could use a small refrigerator, lots of restaurants close by but no place for leftovers. Overall a nice old style motel.

We were pleasantly surprised as it doesn’t look like much from the outside. Our room 102 was newly renovated and very clean. The location worked out well foe us. I would have liked more it it had a small fridge and blackout curtains. The shades don’t cut it for keeping out the light so the room was too bright for a good night sleep.

Cute, clean, and cozy! This place was recently renovated and they did a wonderful job. It looks just like the pictures, no fake out here. My husband and I enjoyed a night with dinner and drinks on Main Street which was only a short drive away. The room was perfect for an overnight stay. The bed was super comfortable and the beddings were much better quality than most places. Like others mentioned, there were a few amenities missing such as a mini fridge and a blow dryer, but for this trip we didn’t really miss them. We would definitely stay again!

This was an exceptionally clean, newly updated and perfect for just an overnight stay. They are still making improvements. I suggested just a simple coffee maker inside the room would be a great addition. Comfort of the bed is important and this bed was perfect for me.

The room was good and comfortable—small for one person or a one night stay. However, not ideal for people who want to eat in or traveling for business. No microwave, no refrigerator, no iron, no hair dryer. I was here for work. I stayed three nights. I should have called and asked about amenities. I’m sorry to post this but there was a faint odor (stuffy), even with window open. The rug should be removed— it was dirty; could be that. Overall nice and I liked that my car was parked near my door. Parking lot is probably going to be resurfaced in the near future?? I think I may have been overcharged.

I had a lovely weekend in Ventura and staying in this motel. I will stay here again the next time I visit. It was clean and the bathroom was updated. The bed was pretty comfy. And the staff was pleasant. The only thing I wish this motel had was a mini fridge and maybe a microwave. I ate so much delicious food in the area for dinner and I wish I could have brought my lefts over back with me to have for lunch the next day. But besides that, I recommend staying here.

Cute room. Bathroom is really pretty & nice. The recent renovation was done properly and with quality. Like the vision the ownership has for the entire property. We want to see the ownership succeed. Very welcoming staff. Please remember to bring your own blow dryer. Addition of a mini-refrigerator would be awesome. Thank you!!!

We travel around a lot and when we do, we often try to find the little “gems” — the hidden secrets of places to stay at. This White Caps Motel was easily the best we’ve found as far as little gems go. Completely remodeled EVERYTHING, the rooms are so nice. Large TV, super comfortable bed, sheets and pillows, and extremely clean and well kept from every sense of the word. We loved our stay here so much that we extended it just because we felt like we weren’t ready to leave. HIGHLY recommend this motel for your stop off in Ventura. What a lovely place. Good price too.

This motel was perfect for me and my companion! We were visiting Ventura for the weekend for a bird show at the fair grounds, and the motel was only 6 minutes away! There are nice breakfast spots less than a mile away, just walking distance. We check-in a little late, so be sure to check-in before 10pm if you're checking in late that day! The room was very clean and the bed was so comfy, kind of hard to get out of because we just wanted to lay in it all day LOL. This motel was beyond what I expected, it really felt like a home, and that's hard to come by in most motels! Overall 10/10 experience! Will definitely book again next time we're in town! (probably every time we're in town)

Dirty sheets, dirty towels, and hairs on bed. Good price, but definitely not worth dealing with little details here and there. Maybe it was just our experience but hopefully it’s better.
