Lovely room with a jacuzzi. It was warm, inviting, and clean. Quiet and peaceful place to unwind for a night. Staff was super friendly :)

As others have observed, the inn has charm - and thin walls - consistent with its construction during the motor touring years. The beds and staff are also nice. On the other hand...if you want quiet sleeping, stay away. Rooms nearer the highway are beset with road noise. Rooms farther back are bombarded with noise from the bar until 10 pm. The thin walls also guarantee that noisy neighbors will be quite audible. All in all, I wish I had my money back.

I had to cancel a few days before my stay and they were extremely nice about it and gave me a full refund even though they didn't technically have to (bc I booked thru Booking.com and that refund period was already over).
I really appreciated how nice they were and I hope I get to stay there some time! The property looks beautiful and they clearly know hospitality.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Sep 6, 2021
Obsessed with this place. We had the best weekend here.
-Rooms are upscale rustic with comfy beds. Ours had a little kitchenette. We loved the smell of the shampoo and body wash too.
-The little porches are perfect to hang out on.
-Family and dog friendly atmosphere, there's a pool and a separate almost fully fenced in grassy area in the back.
-Super friendly staff
-We enjoyed the pool bar as well
-Unique little artistic details all around the placeHelpful 1Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Yunbucha R.Los Angeles, CA051120Oct 16, 2022
This was our first time in ojai, we loved this place. They have beautiful backyard with little fire, swimming pool and 2 hammock, cute bar, sauna etc. if you wanna just chill in ojai this place is the best! One thing I would like to mention is the noise on the rooftop, at night you might hear crazy noises but that's nothing to be scared of most probably they will be raccoons banging your windows or playing on the roof. First night I didn't know what it was so I was scared but next day i found out about raccoons so I slept good! Highly recommend!

Rooms are well designed and the bed was plush but do not stay here if you value sleep. This motel is located right off a main road with TONS of traffic. My neighbors got wasted and watched a movie late into the night with loud beats and violence. Management is bitchy. Not going back.

We came for a very special wedding with about 70 guests. The entire hotel was rented out for the event and they did not disappoint. Never visited the rooms but certainly enjoyed the bar, with romantic drinks (and that woodsy Palo Santo scent that is everywhere), and the next day, the pretty fabulous pool, and the beautiful grounds. The buildings are otherwise rustic and simply ooze charm. This is a very small hotel, like a modern version of a roadside inn. Perfect for small/medium sized weddings. Yep, it's Ojai magic and we would definitely return!

This converted motel is next to a very busy road, very thin walls. Do not stay here if you value sleep. Rooms are overpriced and run down. We paid $275 on a Wednesday night for a premiere king suite - what we got was a room with no closet, one chair, spotty internet, and an incredibly noisy room. I spoke with the room desk clerk who could only offer a room even closer to the busy road. Never again.

Loved this place! It's a rustic-glam curated aesthetic dream. Rooms were clean, and cozy. Staff was friendly. There are cruiser bikes you can use as part of the amenities which is awesome bc there's a bike path that basically takes you all throughout Ojai. The pool is modest and adorable-a perfect way to spend late afternoon. My only suggestion is to try to request a room a little further off the road. We were in room one and the road was a little noisy but also not a huge deal. I would totally stay here again and recommend it to any friends making the trip.
