Ventura Motel was the perfect place for us to crash after working the Suds on the Shore beer festival! It was clean, comfy, and very walkable from the fest and to all the fun downtown stuff. Would stay here again.

we had a home emergency and needed to get a room for the night when it was already late. Ventura had an affordable room ready to go. the motel is very much a classic old style motel. there aren't crazy amenities or anything like that but the room was quiet, comfortable and affordable. If you need a fancier place there are plenty of options but if you don't need a bunch of bells and whistles this was great.

We liked this spot due to its location, the kid who handled the check in was very nice, the bed was comfortable and it was overall very quiet. The room was very dated, the toilet was a slow flush and the bathroom sink was slow draining.
