The hotel offers spacious rooms with a full kitchen, but lacks cooking utensils and the price is on the higher side for the value provided. The service is attentive and welcoming, although housekeeping could be more thorough. The location is convenient, close to Ventura State Beach and downtown attractions, but in a busy commercial district. Dining is satisfactory with options nearby. Facilities are standard, though improvements could enhance the overall experience.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. On the upside, the room was newly refurbished, with modern appliances and sparkling clean. However, the room was quite small, and some items needed fixing. On the positive side, the hotel's location was convenient for walking around and exploring nearby attractions. Yet, it was farther from downtown than I anticipated. The dining options were limited but the staff offered helpful recommendations. The hotel's facilities were average.

I couldn't have been happier with my stay at The Crystal Lodge Motel. The rooms were very nice inside, with great amenities like very comfortable beds and nice coffee when the office was open. The large 50" flat screen TV and over 100 channels made the stay even more enjoyable. The location was convenient, although not near the action in Ventura. The service was exceptional, with kind and helpful staff who provided excellent tips for exploring the area. While the exterior may have seemed shabby, the updated rooms were a pleasant surprise.

My stay at the hotel was amazing, with incredibly comfortable and clean rooms that made me forget about the outside world. The full kitchen in the unit was truly remarkable, although the absence of a desk or table made it a bit challenging to find a spot for my bag.

My stay at the hotel was a great experience overall. The rooms, though smaller than expected, were well-equipped with two queen beds, a futon, and a newly refurbished kitchen, making it very comfortable. The service from the staff was exceptional, making check-in a breeze. The location was convenient for a quick drive to the beach and other attractions, though the presence of shady characters was a downside. The dining options nearby were excellent, especially the recommendations for good restaurants. The facilities were good, with modern updates enhancing the overall experience.
