Amazing place to stay in the heart of Ventura’s best beach scene.
Pros:

Location is unbeatable. Walking distance to the beach and Main Street restaurants. Pool is heated which feels great after a day at the beach.

Cons:

When overburdened the hotel elevators were downright dangerous and other guests complained about getting stuck or dropping floors. We took the stairs most of Saturday. Things started to improve by Sunday morning.

Update: just had to reach the right person...
Pros:

6/25 Update: The General Manager, Danny Quintana, cleared things up for me in a kind and professional manner. He took responsibility for mistakes others made, and gave us a credit for a future stay (fair solution). I'm not sure why the previous manager didn't contact me, but I'm happy to report that I will be returning to one of my favorite hotels right on the beach. It is the perfect spot to meet my SoCal family/friends and will continue to recommend it.
_____
I was charged although I canceled room before deadline. Managers never called me back, I tried to dispute it and Crown Plaza would not approve when Booking.com put in request. They just keep passing the problem to crown and viceversa.

Cons:

Getting charged. I've spent HOURS trying to resolve this issue.

Very pleasant.
Pros:

The location on beach was nice. We had a room 3 years ago where the beds faced the ocean. The room we stayed in this year didn’t have the feature to look out to ocean while resting in bed. But for the most part the stay was pleasant.
