The service is the most important for the hotel. For more than half a month, the whole set of services that such a hotel can provide can be kept at a top priority. Whether it can consider the price of the frequent residents, it will become better.

Hotel is modern with nice rooms, public areas and large outside areas including pool and fire pit. Situated in Agoura Hills near Thousand Oaks with a lot to do locally and short drive to Malibu on the coast. Good collection of food options few minutes drive from hotel including great BBQ at Wood Ranch, nice pizza at Two Doughs Pizza and excellent breakfast / dinner at Sunrose California Eatery. Plenty of shopping opportunities locally also. Friendly staff. Good parking at the hotel for small charge of $10 per night. Nice bar area in hotel with excellent reds. If in the area again would consider staying here. Malibu has a nice beach but not much to see in the actual town. If there visit Adamson House Museum if only to wander around the small gardens and museum, and speak to the very friendly and knowledgeable lady in the gift shop. In Thousand Oaks go visit Gardens of the World - it is pretty small but lovely to wander around or have a quiet sit. The town of Santa Barbara is only an hour away by car from here and it is beautiful and well worth a visit.

I was so pleased with the facilities - very unique layout of the hotel, kind of a fun and mysterious experience to explore the property and gain my bearings. I get a little tired of the typical hotel layout - it's always exciting to get a unique setup like this one.
The hotel has been in business since 1969 but has obviously been completely redone, probably multiple times since then because it feels so fresh and new. There wasn't anything that felt old or stale - the entire room felt so clean and new, I highly recommend for germaphobes like myself. I felt very comfortable here.
More than anything, I was so moved by the customer service. Being a semi-frequent guest of hotels all over, I've come to learn that lowering my expectations before checking in at most places will prepare me for the inevitable disappointment - haha. BUT this was not the case here - the gentleman who checked me in was beyond friendly and helpful, I felt so touched by the personal effort he clearly put into ensuring my check-in experience was special. I will remember that for a long time. The lady who assisted me in the evening with a small purchase in the lobby and adding my rewards number to the reservation was also very friendly and not in a forced or ingrnuine way. I truly felt her kindness, both, through the phone, and over the counter. She went above and beyond to make me feel valued as a guest/customer and associates like her and her coworker who checked me in just don't go easily forgotten in my book.
The guest service and unique experience you're sure to have when you stay here are what set this hotel apart from the rest. I absolutely recommend if you're in the area. What a lovely place for anyone to come visit but still feel right at home. :)
Very Good

Still love this place, it is perfect for those who are just looking for a basic, clean, inexpensive place, in a good location. Have been coming here for many years now, each time for a 3-4 day stay. After Covid, the room cleaning services changed and now you only receive towel change and trash take out each day, with full cleaning on the 6th day of stay. Unfortunately, this reduced service was not consistent. On the first day, trash was taken out and towels changed. On the second day, the towel change was left on the table by the TV. On the 3rd day, no service at all. I

Close to restaurants, gym 360 victory gym, excellent service This place had clean rooms and excellent service even when we landed near midnight. The showers had a lot of force and they went the extra mile to give us rooms next to each other. The breakfast was great and both Jazmin and Mason helped our family with seniors who had food restrictions. The service was simply superb especially since we experienced the opposite in Marriott at Anaheim in harbor The beds were comfy and there was ample parking. There is an in n out right next to it and few restaurants including this sit down thai place. It has orange theory near by and the gymnastics camp is 5 minutes away. There is a camarilla outlet mall about 15 mins away and it was fun to explore. Food included tater tots, eggs any style, fritats, pan cake, french toast, avocado toast, breakfast burritos, sandwiches and all the usual Starbucks food as well. It was all great.

We had a great stay. Our room (305) was very large and the large bed was extremely comfortable. The rooms have been refurbished since our last stay in 2019 and are greatly improved. The closet area provided ample storage and the shower room was large. We appreciated the space and amenities including hairdryer, iron and board, fridge and coffee maker. The TV area also has great storage and there was a large selection of channels. The only drawback to the room was the air conditioning noise so I used silicone ear plugs to sleep. We didn’t use many of the facilities except the gymnasium - regrettably the 2 running machines were both out of service. The pool is very small and could be noisy if your room overlooks. There are plenty of parking spaces and the location is excellent, very handy for The Calabasas Commons (a beautiful, landscaped area with a great selection of coffee shops, restaurants and stores), Malibu beaches (30 mins drive) and 405 highway. The housekeeping staff did a great job and always said hello in the corridors which was really nice. The complimentary, individually wrapped cookies at the lobby were delicious and a very welcoming touch. I have had great stays in this hotel and would unreservedly recommend to friends.

We choose this place because we needed a hotel to stay at that we knew had truck park near Port Hueneme. Although they don't actually have truck parking...we park on the side street and had to walk a bit to the hotel. Which was fine. I feel like best western tried to crew me over on this trip. On the best western website it stated one night started at 140. But when I talked to the clerk he was able to get it down to 124 that night. I'm thankful of. Unfortunately the clerk did not recognize that we were a rewards members and didnt give us anything like best western do. Most just give you free water. The room was nice and clean very spacious for just one queen bed. Bed was comfortable. Shower was nice. Water pressure was good with hot water. Breakfast was from 6-9am. They hot waffels...oatmeal..yogurt. yummy hot food like eggs.. bacon...sausage and potatoes it was a nice stay

I'll get the negative stuff out of the way first. When we entered the room we noticed that it was too warm, so we turned down the A/C a bit. It seemed to help, or maybe it was our imagination. When it was time for bed we wanted it cooler because we, like most folks, sleep better when it is cool We turned it down further and there was no improvement. I held my hand to the register and the air coming out was lukewarm, not cool. We called the front desk for maintenance. Nobody came. After a half hour or so, we called again. Somebody came. He brought a box fan that he put onto the floor. He also made an adjustment to the A/C and it seemed to start working again. In the middle of the night it got hot. The A/C had stopped working. The fan provided very little relief because it was on the floor. It should have been higher. We also found the linens and towels to be of lesser quality that that in similar hotels. As to the good part, the staff was friendly and helpful.

GGuest UserWe came to Simi Valley to visit friends and family. I am so glad we chose this location. The shape of the buildings makes it convenient to all the amenities. The daily breakfast is real food and good coffee and juices, which we appreciated. The rooms have a refrigerator and microwave. The rooms were cleaned early everyday and done when we returned, even with a few special touches. The staff is amazing, pleasant, on top of any needs and always smiling. The rooms could use some updating but the price justifies it. The pool was clean and never got over crowded. The location was close to shopping and the Reagan Library and Museum. We would definitely come again.

Tthankyoun2021Great surrounding businesses suck as Makenna’s coffee! Location was perfect for us because we have a big family and we were very close to our relatives home. My experience overall was fine. The staff is extremely cold, when you ask them questions they do seems very bothered. Unfortunately on my trip, a family members necklace was left behind in the room, and when we called to ask if they could go to the room (same day we checked out) the lady’s response was “ it’s already been cleaned and your necklace is likely in the vacuum cleaner already, sorry I can’t help you” What a mean and nasty way to respond. I was highly disappointed in her lack of interest in even TRYING to help. Other than the disengaged staff and lack of knowledge when trying to get a room away from the elevators and ice machine but getting a room next to elevator. It’s fine.

GGuest UserHotel is good, that is, the Holiday Inn has to collect the deposit, it will take a long time to return, forced to feel very uncomfortable, it is best not to choose the Holiday Inn, basically every holiday hotel receives a deposit! Ctrip has not written clearly, resulting in consumers are very passive, everyone should complain!

GGuest UserThis place was amazing. For the rate you really get alot. Not too crazy about the parking fee and that they charge you everyday but it is what it is and maybe hotels even charge more than that. For some strange reason there is a smoky smell in some of the rooms, but they were good about switching us until we found a better room. Windows don't open so if you're on the ground level you miss a lot of the patio noise. It's a lot nicer when it's not as crowded here. The higher levels have a nice view. We did have to make a deposit but they didn't charge us any pet fees. Didn't know if the restaurant was open but we didn't find a menu in the room. It's outdated but in a in a way that adds to its charm. Not a bad place, I recommend it. They had security and compared to lower range lodging in Simi Valley we felt comfortable. Plenty of T.V. channels and plug outlets.

KKish BHad to leave a review for a place I became comfortable with. like most people in the beginning I was skeptical about staying at a Motel 6. it does definitely get a bad reputation but after stumbling across this particular one because of a last minute decision a became my go to place in Simi Valley! it is a typical Motel 6 so if you're looking for luxury this is not the place for you but if you want a nice clean place to sleep and an good environment with wonderful staff you can't go wrong! from the beginning All of the staff made me feel comfortable and welcomed. I am a very picky person and have a lot of extra Concerns and request and they are always met with the smile! from the maids to management They make you feel at home and do their best to take care of your every need. The property is also really clean. just like any other property there are those days where things don't always go as planned rowdy guests etc.. but from what I've seen they do a good job of keeping this property up and safe. you should give it a try and see for your self! I've been staying here every time Im in Simi valley for the last 6 to 7 months haven't left yet!
3.5/5
OOsideMom2threeWe had requested a quiet room and generally we prefer the top floor so that we don't hear people walking around. This place has a problem with their third floor. The first room we were shown faced the freeway and the on-ramp and you could hear the freeway noise. I-118 is busy all night. Then we were shown a room on the third floor and told the ”fan” was a bit noisy in that room. Since we thought she was referring to the fan in the bathroom, we thought no problem, Since there was someone cleaning the carpets in the next room you couldn't hear anything. else at the time. Upon returning in he evening, we realized that the ”fan” she had been talking about was equipment on the roof which was constant noise. The front desk when asked about the noise told us, ”oh we get complaints about the noise in that area of the hotel.” She was helpful and we ended moving to another room at the other end of the hall. It still had noise from the roof but not as bad. The entire hotel needs a major overall. The windows in all the rooms were filthy on the outside. Remote after remote were dead. My recommendation, for a few more dollars stay at another hotel. It is a one star hotel that charges like it is a 3 star. Oh and no take and go breakfast. Won't stay here again.
