Channel Islands Inn & Suites

Oh I must, I must write a review about this hotel. Now my girl, Aimee also wrote a review about it but you know what? I am going to give it one less star and let me tell you why!
So after a gorgeous wedding in Camarillo and a fun, flirty night afterwards at a local bar near the wedding site it was time to head back to our hotel, which we found out is light years away from where we were… Where the heck are we? I kept thinking… Well we finally arrive there after getting lost and ahead of time we found out that our friend tried to already check in but well read Aimee’s review below and you will see what happened. So anyways lets discuss the hotel.
Well we get in the room and I am attempting to get ready for bed. There are 4 of us in the room and 1 king size bed and a couch. So my 2 friends that have already been there are in the King size bed and tell me to join them…(no no not weird like that) So I am attempting to fall asleep but have a hard time because this hotel likes to have their mini-​bar refrigerators running as loud as possible! YES!
Well I wake up bright and early to make sure we catch their «hot breakfast» thats what advertised on the sign… We all decided to get up and get ready. I am 3^rd in the shower and find out that, oh yes there is only shampoo no conditioner for hair and its the smallest bottle of shampoo, I would say the size of my pinky finger! Yeah I am not kidding. Also while taking a shower, the lights keep flickering on and off because apparantly, the lights are controlled by the outside of the bathroom, so anytime they were turning off and on the lights I would get affected. So a very adventurous shower I was taking. So I get out of the shower and get ready and I go to dry my hair with their top-​of-​the-​line hair dryer and it has no heat whatsoever… Yeah room not terrible but definitely not good
The breakfast is probably the best part of this story. We get there and they have 3 cereals to pick from, and bread, eggs, sausage, and warm juices. They also have a waffle machine that was being run by a family of 20! I finally attempt to make a waffle and the damn thing sticks all over the waffle iron! I was very upset! But I had some cereal and some eggs and it wasnt terrible but next time I might do a little research on hotels if I am ever staying up there again.

I have pretty low standards for hotels. It’s not my house, it’s not my bed, I don’t expect much. Yet somehow, Channel Islands Inn & Suites still managed to disappoint me.
They failed to inform us that if we didn’t check in by 9pm, they’d give our room away. We were running late for the wedding so none of us had time to stop and check in. When my friends tried to check in at 10pm, they were told the room they reserved was given away. They did offer another room with a king size bed and sofabed. Whatever, we need somewhere to rest our tired asses.
Get to the room, sofabed doesn’t work. *sighs* Whatever, I’ll just sleep on the couch while my other 3 friends shared the king.
Next morning, 8:20am, we call to get more towels for showers, «Sorry ma’am, we don’t have anyone to deliver until after 9am». WTF?! So homegirl walks to the front office and there’s a line. Forget it!
They kind of made up some lost points with the breakfast. Eggs, sausage, waffles, cereal, it was all pretty good. Turns out I’m easy to please.
