Palace Inn

I was staying at another hotel up the street for the week and was being charged $ 100 more for a room. The Palace is so clean, newish and excellent parking. The price is very reasonable and the staff very friendly. The manager got me a coffee pot because I’m an early riser and need my coffee. It does sit on a very busy street but I can’t hear the traffic at all (unless somebody drives by with the bass too loud. I like this place.

Location isn’t the best at all. The rooms are designed with hardly any natural light and the one window we did have was covered in metal mesh… the jacuzzi was clean and big and worked great. The microwave needed to be replaced it had no spinning table and the screen was broken. The mini fridge worked decently. The A/​C unit worked well considering it was hot outside that’s a plus. The Flat Screen T. V was nice but the table display that showed the channels was not the channels you could view… should have more than basic cable for the money charged on a week day. But there was no incidents it was quiet. The beds were comfortable with clean sheets and blankets, plenty of towels and rags. Alot of minor things would’ve easily made this a 3 star but they are being over looked. Right down to the landline phone with the Las Vegas directory lol. and the broken ear piece so when you call the front desk you hear them but they can’t hear you. Alot of places have jetted tubs with much better amenities for the same or less price. But if it’s late and there booked. Go for it.

First off when we started checking into this motel. They started arguing with us about the animals we have in our vehicle, we always keep our animals overnight in the vehicles. Went through Priceline to get this, I personally went to talk to the manager about the situation and they got very disrespectful and aggressive towards us. So they said you know what we are going to refund your booking and throw you out. Overall I would never recommend this establishment to anyone ever. Very unprofessional. Hopefully no one ever has to go through what we did :(

My family and I are big Stay-​cationers. We choose to stay here very last minute (8pm to be exact) we were able to book a room no problem. We ended up getting a Jacuzzi suite. The room was a nice size. 2 queen beds, the jacuzzi was HUGE. The room had a working fridge/​freezer & microwave. And a big plus in my book was the working AC which was nice in the 90° (at night) weather!
Now for the reasons I knocked off 2 stars: when we entered the room it had a faint smell of urine. Luckily there was a Walgreen’s nearby where we were able to pick up some air freshener. Another thing was, there is only about 4 channels on the TV. And with small children, not having 1 kids channel available is unacceptable.

This place is disgusting. These people charged us $ 150 for pure filth. I’ve never seen a place so disgusting. The walls are dirty. The bed texture feels strange. Praying I don’t get a flesh eating disease tomorrow.

If I could give no stars, I would. The greatest regret of my life is staying in this motel!!! The manager. of this place caused a fight between me & my boyfriend on the day of my business trip to Oxnard. After working all night, he initially refused to give me a late checkout coz he said what difference will it make if you’re tired? Then, after he agrees to 11:20 after I told him every minute makes a difference to me, he took his frustration out on my friend when he went to move the car & my bf came back raging & angry; upset with me coz I asked for the late checkout after working a 12 hour shift the night before as the manager lashed out at him for having to let me stay an extra 20 minutes. We left quarreling as the manager riled my bf up & I took the brunt of it just before a business meeting!!! Furthermore, the night before, when I called the hotel to be transferred to the room, an Indian male receptionist rudely answered and asked who I Wanted to talk to. When I told him room 17, he demanded multiple times what name? When I gave him my bf’s name, he hanged up then refused to answer the phone when I called back multiple times. The automated system cannot transfer me to the room. Rude, unmannerly staff. The hotel itself; the 3 hours I spent in it; I would give a 1 star. Old décor & furniture with dated painting on the ceiling. The blankets & sheets have holes in them. The cleanliness of the room is questionable. The surrounding area is unsafe & dirty; ghetto is a nice word for it. First time in that part of Oxnard &, if I was not late for work the day before & with my favorite hotels all booked solid, I would not have checked in to this poor excuse of a motel with a rude & arrogant manager & staff!!! Beware! There are other better hotels in better locations with better rates!!! Check out Quality Inn!!!

I’m an oil rig worker from out of the area, and have stayed in some trashy places over the years. This was not one of those places. I was pleasantly surprised to find that the room was very clean and looked as though it had been recently updated. The shower head was kind of funky, couldn’t adjust it. My room came with a single bed (king size) a microwave, and a mini fridge, and a brand new a/​c unit. The tv was very nice, large and plenty of channels, free wifi and friendly staff.
I would have chosen 5 stars had it not been how small the parking lot was, if you have a big vehicle it will be a pain to park here. $ 44 a night is a great price, especially for the condition of my room. I will definitely stay here again if the job brings me this direction.

Due to JULY 4^th, this place was able to get away with charging a shit load of $$$.
I needed the room so whatever, demand is high, supply is low, hence I pay the price.
The room was just BLAH! I didn’t feel clean in there, granted it is a motel so what am I expecting but I paid a lot so I was expecting something more. There was a jacuzzi in the room which looked like it had never been used so I refrained from using it.
I wouldn’t stay here again

We made it out alive. WOW what a huge mistake… All the other hotel /​motels booked solid. Room 15 is super nasty. Stay at Motel 6 you’ll pay less and have a better room.

The name is a little grandiose, but true in a sense: considering what you might expect from a place this inexpensive (with weekly rates as well), it is a cut above. For less than $ 270 a week it was enough of a palace for my needs. Everything worked, nothing was broken, clean, fast free Wi-​Fi, central location, parking directly in front of the room, no upstairs or downstairs neighbors, mostly good clientele, nice big TV, HBO (I could do without the porn, but it was indeed free — gosh, porn is creepy, I remember when there wasn’t any. Porn was called stag films then and the world was a better place when you couldn’t watch disgusting slobs having robotic sex devoid of any human feeling 24 hours a day, but I digress) Staff was pleasant and not intrusive. I have nothing bad to say about it.

Im rating strictly with a motel in mind. This is no 3 star hotel, its a 3 star motel. You can reserve a room on the website for under $ 40 which is a great deal.
The front desk was courteous. Parking right out front and felt pretty safe.
The room was pretty clean but the shower could have been cleaner.
Room has a fridge and free porn. Mostly girl on girl but thats cool.

My husband I spent a couple of nights here to visit the ocean. Here’s what we observed:
Pros: The couple who runs the Inn are pretty friendly. We had no issues with them. We both slept well both nights– it was surprisingly quiet and comfortable. The price we paid for each night wasn’t bad ($ 84 per night) — considering we had a plasma television and a large Jacuzzi tub in the bedroom (not to mention the refrigerator and microwave). Also, it’s close to the ocean (don’t think you can walk there, though– the nearest beach is about 4 miles). We also enjoyed the work that went into the ceiling with the black lights in the room; when you turn them on at night, the ceiling lights up and you can see clouds and birds– pretty neat.
Cons: There were some maintenance issues. The bath was a little backed up, so our showers were more of bath/​showers. The toilet easily clogged, even with minimal toilet paper. The sink’s cold water didn’t turn on unless we manually turned a knob on the pipe-​and it couldn’t be left on because the sink leaked otherwise (we notified the owners and they were aware of this). The carpet was kind of dirty. Also, we found a box of condoms and a crushed up beer can behind the refrigerator.
In the end, it’s what you would expect from motel– especially one with weekly rates (meaning people live there regularly). But, despite the maintenance issues and some cleanliness problems, it wasn’t the worst experience we’ve had. Would we go back? Most likely not. But, if you have a small budget and need a place to stay for a night or two, this isn’t a bad choice. Just be prepared for some possible maintenance issues.

I was thoroughly surprised from this little inn. The rooms have a better décor than major chains I’ve stayed in. There was faux marble tiles in the bathroom and shower, the walls were clean, window coverings were colorful and matched the rest of the room, microwave and fridge in room, solid wood armoire, and patterned tile in the bathroom. It wasn’t like I was impressed compared to something like The Venitian or Bellagio in Vegas, but for what it was, I really appreciated the effort to make the room look more upscale than it was.
The bed wasn’t very comfortable, but it wasn’t horrible either. Noise was almost non-​existent which is always nice, but not guaranteed.
My only major complaint with this place was the towels. They must be super old because they felt like sandpaper. I’m exaggerating a little bit, but they were not soft at all. It was like exfoliating my skin while drying off. From that perspective, I guess it could be viewed as a «feature».
Overall, for the super low price we paid ($ 42) I would gladly stay here again and recommend everyone else to choose it if they are just passing through. Just make sure to bring your own towel and don’t expect there to be a lot to do in walking distance.

Shady, stay away!!!
Why do you need to make a copy of my CA driver license?
Why do I need to fill out another form that has stuff already on my CADL?
Why is there blood stains on both shower towels?
Why is there free porn on Channel 95? Actually disregard that question.
When I booked this hotel/​motel through my company, this place actually came out as an approved place of lodging, and at $ 45 a night, I saved the company more since the maximum daily per diem rate for a hotel in this area is about $ 110. Next time, stay at the Quality Inn.
You guys already have my personal information when I booked this hotel on the internets, so I’m not sure why you needed it again… twice.
And as for those dirty, PMS’d towels, what the fuck man? Luckily, I had my own towels to use.
And as for the free porn… KOOOOL!!! Need more places that offer this kind of amenity. Most of it was crap, though they did show classics like Busty beauties #15 and Asian fever #24.
The old Indian couple who runs this place seem spooky to me; they just like to loiter around in the parking lot. Pretty weird people.
I also asked for a receipt for my stay here detailing each charge, but they only give you the credit card receipt, no actual hotel receipt.

So okay, they may have gone a little overboard with the name. There’s really not much palatial about this motel. It’s small, as are the rooms, but cheap. Nice and cheap. Though I’m sure they can’t justify royal rates in a fairly wonted place.
Let’s break it down, shall we?
Pros
— CHEAP. Less than $ 50, and nicer than a Motel 6 (e.g. we got both bars of soap AND conditioning shampoo). Baller.
— Refrigerator + Microwave that both work. We were able to keep our pink champagne nice and chilled. Double baller.
— Showers were pretty nice, with my FAVORITE kind of curved shower bar to make it look all nice and huge.
— Decent sized TV, plenty of places for storage.
— FREE PORN. No, I’m serious. No premium channels. No free movies. But somehow, channel 95 is porn. Pure, unadulterated by hefty charges and embarrassing titles porn. But wait…
Cons
— The porn was kinda nasty. And not the good kind of nasty that you sometimes like with your porn. But colorings off/didn’t quite shave enough/​can see what the woman is trying to cover up with makeup kind of porn. That should be left for real life, not TV.
— I’m pretty sure the ambiguous small brown splotches on the inside of our shower curtain was poo.
— The room smelled really musty. Like, had to have the AC all night kind of musty.
— The chair and the inside of the comforter looked kinda iffy verging on pretty gross.
— The remote control didn’t have a sleep function. WTF. I like to fall asleep to the TV on my vacations, dammit!
So 3 stars. Plus free porn.
Baller.
