    Parking lot near lobby
    Dave L.

    We stayed one night over Labor Day weekend (Sunday-Monday) in a two-queen room. The rooms are very dated, though clean. The staff, however, was extremely unaccommodating. The day before checkout, we asked for a late checkout and were told 12:00 noon would be fine at no extra charge. Yet on the morning of checkout, staff knocked on our door at 9:30 a.m. to "confirm" if we still wanted late checkout -- even though regular checkout isn't until 11:00 a.m. When I went to the lobby to speak with the so-called manager (who looked barely 21), I was told checkout at 1:00 p.m. would cost $30, with an additional $30 per hour up to 3:00 p.m. After 3:00 p.m., the charge would be the full nightly rate of $207. By the time I returned after discussing with my partner, the pricing had changed again. At that point, we decided to leave and checked in next door at the Hummingbird Inn -- where the staff was friendly, the rooms were clean and updated, and the pool area was great. Highly recommend the Hummingbird Inn instead. I will not be returning to Casa Ojai. * Manager: 0 stars * Room: 2 stars (dated but clean) * Pool/Hot Tub: 3 stars

    In follow up to my review above, q manager called me after the disastrous customer service received and apologized, refunded, and assured me this was not the way Casa Ojai treated prospective guests. As we began planing another trip this winter, I thought perhaps I should reconsider and rebook, as well as remove my review and give them another chance. Then they jumped in to reassure (in response to my review) that they still blamed me and wanted to argue with me about the weather and that the earthquake that yes, karmically, hit them after the horrendous storm just to drive home my point! I'm looking for much better service when traveling than I receive from this hotel.

    Decent hotel located close to town. Ojai has a great bike trail that runs though the town and this hotel offers bikes to rent free for guests. You must check them out at the front desk. Front desk manager was friendly. Spa and pool are heated and my kids really enjoyed both. Rooms are clean and comfy. Walls can be a bit thin, so turning in the HVAC fan will create a nice quiet sleep at night. Shampoo, soap & conditioner dispenser mounted in the shower offers a more earth friendly alternative to all those tiny plastic bottle that guest end up taking home. No restroom located close to the pool. Also no continental breakfast. Decent place to relax and stay.

    All hail Casa Ojai Inn! This is a beautiful, charming property with a warm vibe and a Spanish-style aesthetic, located in a quiet corner off the main street in captivating Ojai. The rooms are spacious, modern and beautiful. The bed is crazy cozy and comfortable! You can walk to nearby restaurants, bars and Westridge Market. The staff, highlighted by the Amazing Angeliese and Trilby, is excellent and attentive. You can also check out bikes, swim in their saltwater pool and soak in their hot tub. Check it out!

    Nice little get away from LA. Walking distance from town and everyone seems really nice here. They loaned be their bike to run an errand. Parking looks right but there's lots of space around the back. Our room did smell of cloreen but overall I enjoyed this cosy little cottage.

    Available rooms when i was told there were none

    Extremely disappointed with the service. We have been staying here almost exclusively when my husband golf's nearby. Today was checkout and I called the front desk to ask for a late checkout which I would have gladly paid for. I was informed they could not offer it due to the hotel being completely booked tonight. I went to their website and there are at least 5 types of rooms available tonight. The front desk lady blatantly lied to me which is unacceptable. I will never be back, I will stay in nearby Ventura at either the Crowne Plaza or Marriott where I have never had a bad experience in all my years. Attached is a screenshot with the available rooms for tonight, as you can see they have availability

The vibe was so calm, mostly women just chatting, unwinding, and enjoying each other in this peaceful little paradise. We ordered smoothies poolside and omg...so fresh and refreshing.

The bedside lamps provided no significant light, and the overhead fan light was small, cold, & sterile, and not very bright, either. I beg of you, Ojai Rancho Inn--PLEASE get more significant overhead lights in your rooms--a singular bright japanese lantern hanging from the ceiling would do the trick. The ceiling fan is unnecessary when the rooms have AC. The pros: Dog friendly, I found the bed & pillows super comfortable, and the jacuzzi was rad. They have free bikes on the property that you can ride to downtown--my fiancé and I loved that. The grounds were beautiful and a short walk to downtown. We are looking forward to coming back!

I'm a pool and hot tub guy, so I was in those things a couple times each day. There was only one time where I had to share either of them with others. Really relaxing! It's about a mile away from the "stuff" in town, which is totally walkable. We did find it to be a bit of a drag walking back to the hotel at the end of the day. The road was juuust enough of an uphill along dimly lit streets that had no sidewalk to make it not super awesome after eating, tasting, and walking around all day. I'd hit this place up again next year for sure!

Not only did Julia not give me any suggestions of where to go, she actually had a room available at a higher cost which she a) did not offer to me for the inconvenience b) did not offer it to me at a discount. Before she emailed me this should have taken care of. Julia's bad planning basically caused me to have to spend a lot more money or cancel the much anticipated wedding of a very close friend. Julia kept silent after apologizing (not profusely btw) for the "inconvenience" she caused. I should have not even heard from her until check in with a "i'm sorry but your original room is under construction so we gave you this better room" I gave the name of this hotel to 2 other people and booked so so far in advance. She did refund my money but it is Memorial day weekend and prices have skyrocketed and nothing is available. I would NOT recommend this hotel to anyone who wants to be treated fairly. She had the nerve to tell me the room that was available was a lot more money with no discount nothing. This woman has ZERO business acumen and I can not say enough bad things about her in this one post. It was such an "Oh Well" attitude ...She had so many options to give a) offer me the room b) offer me the room at a discounted rate c) find me a room during the most crowded weekend and offer to pay the difference d) offer me a coupon to come back with a free night ........awful awful awful .....I hope the other people in the party cancel and find something else but they are probably stuck here because nothing is available.

It is very clean and the renovations were clearly very intentional with design in mind. It is an incredibly cohesive property. The rooms themselves are comfortable and I loved that the temperature was very adjustable. The bathroom was a bit bizarre. I will never understand the appeal to the shower design. It's the kind of shower that is only separated from the rest of the bathroom by half of a glass wall. Which just means, no matter how careful you are, the entire bathroom will be soaked. In terms of property amenities, the ample free parking was a huge plus. And the complementary bikes seemed great, thought we didn't get a chance to take advantage of them. There is a nice large field in the back which would be a great place to stargaze at night. We did check out the hot tub on the last morning, and I was very disappointed that it was hardly warm. The rooms come with a unique selection of snacks for purchase, but I was shocked to see they were charging $4 for the packet of instant coffee next to the kettle. I'm glad I noticed they were charging for that, because I would've assumed it was free. No chance that's worth it. There was decent coffee available in the lobby for free. When looking at a map, it showed it was only a 10-15 minute walk into the main stretch of town, so we planned to walk daily. Unfortunately, there is just enough distance on the road between the hotel and the downtown where there is no sidewalk, to a point where we felt it would be unsafe to walk at night. So we had to drive 2 minutes down the road instead. If they were able to create a path with a street lamp or two, that would make a huge difference! The staff was incredibly nice and I was glad they were able to help out with anything we needed! I did find it a bit odd that the hotel is only staffed 8AM-10PM.

I booked a month ahead, and I want to stress that this was with the front desk, not with an outside travel agency. Confirmation of the price was sent to me via email. In April, I checked in and paid at the price they gave me and confirmed in writing. When I got home from my trip, there was an extra $50 dollars charged to my card. When I inquired as to the added charge, they simply said that I was undercharged for the room, that they had mistakenly given me the wrong price. However, I stressed that the price I paid was the price that they had agreed to. Also, they never mentioned anything about undercharging me when I paid for the room; it was only after I returned home that they took the liberty of charging me extra. This didn't matter to manager Jennifer. This is very unprofessional, and simply put, just a stupid and unethical thing to do from a business point of view. It appears that they have financial problems: the sink in my room was plugged and the mattress is old; also oddly, there is no one on the premises until 3pm and no one there in the early morning, so does that mean that they have no night clerk? They cut corners and overcharge customers that are not regulars. This is low-class, third world treatment in an upscale town. In my opinion, new management is in order if they want to stay in business. There are plenty of other hotels and B&Bs in town that don't feel free to mess with your credit card when you're not looking.
