Great stay at Santa Paula Inn! From the moment we booked, everything felt welcoming and easy. The…read morephone reservation was especially pleasant--friendly, courteous, and the owner/manager answered my questions directly (a hospitality level I haven't experienced in years). Arrival was smooth. The half-circle drive off Mill Street is easy to enter and was open when we arrived. The only tip I'd add is once you get past the front area, head toward the rear parking lot for the best flow. Walking up to the front door is charming--Swiss/German country cottage style with historic character, dark wood tones, and shingle siding (with white end units). The lobby setup is warm and inviting, with great lighting and multiple seating areas where you can relax or have a conversation. Check-in was quick and friendly. The staff explained the room ventilation controls and the split cooling system (new technology). The room stayed very quiet and comfortable--our third-floor room cooled to about 65°F each night. The stairs to the third floor were exactly as expected--no elevator--and they felt well designed with consistent tread depth and height. The hallways also have fun movie posters from the 20-60s, which adds personality. We stayed in Room 301, and it was roomy (about 300 sq ft). The room had a chaise lounge with an ottoman, plus a desk and chair. The bathroom layout is a bit old-school, with the sink just outside the bathroom area inside the bedroom, but it worked fine. There's a small step up (around 1 1/2 inches), and the tub/shower and toilet were comfortable and clean. The shower had plenty of hot water. The bed was a highlight--pillow-top comfort with very soft sheets and comforters. The king pillows were large, soft, and easy to adjust (even though I usually prefer smaller ones, these were great). Overall, the room and property felt quiet. It seemed like most guests were in by around 9:00, and we had a peaceful, restful night's sleep. Also worth noting: there are four EV chargers in the rear parking lot for electric vehicle owners. The restaurant looked amazing and smelled great, though we didn't dine this trip--we're planning to next time we fly into Santa Paula Airport. Finally, Monica, the manager, was wonderful--an absolute pleasure to talk with and genuinely kind. And a special thank-you for the complimentary morning coffee and muffins. Highly recommend for anyone who wants comfort, charm, and quiet peace.

We recently stayed at the Glen Tavern Inn and had a mixed experience…read more The highlight was the staff. At check-in, we realized our assigned room was near two very barky dogs, and the front desk was kind and accommodating in relocating us to another room. I think it was even a better room. I appreciated their willingness to help. Unfortunately, the room itself felt more worn than charming. The furniture had visible wear and staining, the ceiling showed patched areas and water stains that really needed a fresh coat of paint, and the overall impression was tired rather than historic. A few relatively simple updates would go a long way toward elevating the experience. The bathroom was tight, and it had a small step up that we kept forgetting about, despite the (small) warning sign. The provided toiletries were among the worst I've encountered at a hotel. I had forgotten my own shampoo and soap and planned to use what was provided, but it was SO bad. The tiny disc of soap did not lather. On the positive side, the property felt safe and the room was clean. The lobby had dark wood and a homey feel. But what could have felt like a charming historic inn instead came across as simply old and overdue for some attention. While I appreciated the friendly service, I wouldn't choose to stay here again until I knew they had made some upgrades. From what I hear, this is the nicest place in Santa Paula, so I guess we would stay in nearby Ojai at a similar price point.

Piercings were 20% off. There were flash tats for $80, I believe. Sue was awesome ! The piercings ( I got two) didn't hurt. It's been a few days now and I can say they're healing well. Compared to getting my lobes pierced with a piercing gun, going to Sue is a world of difference. I'll be back for more ... even if a little bit more than going to a Claire's. I love the look of a ton of studs on my ears .. so many more to come! The shop is cool. Not very huge - you felt comfortable as staff is welcoming / nice. I drove from Oxnard to get pierced here as I had been following Sue for a bit on Instagram. She's also a great artist and has the best personality, is professional, keeps her station clean and her hands are light when piercing! Highly rec!

Santa Paula sits in the beautiful Santa Clara River Valley and is home to California's newest…read morenature preserve - which was the reason for my visit! I spent about 24 hours in the historic district and make a stop when I'm in the area - lots of cute restaurants and museums. The town calls itself the "Citrus Capital of the World" and agriculture is its main bread and butter. The town is completely surrounded by farmland and ag industry. The Chumash were the first to inhabit the area - then the town had an oil boom in the 1800s. The Union Oil Co's historic headquarters is now home to the town's oil museum. There are several other museums around, including an art museum. The chamber of commerce sits in a cute historic train depot surrounded by a huge park. There are lovely, giant murals everywhere you go in the historic district. A lot of them have to do with agriculture, the early settlers, and the movie industry as it used to also be headquartered here. You'll find the historic (and supposedly very haunted) Glen Tavern Inn in the historic district- Charlie Chaplin stayed there and it's beautifully preserved. Actor Steve McQueen spent the last few years of his life here - and a long list of movies, TV shows, and music videos have been filmed here (see the list on the town's wiki page). The Santa Clara River Preserve is just a few miles away from the historic district and is the newest nature preserve in California- having just opened in early 2024. It's 1000 acres of wild wetland and upland and sits on the river - tons of migratory birds pass through twice a year. It's amazing - highly recommend to any birders out there! Walking around the historic district in the evenings is a bit sketch however - there are lots of unruly, wild and unsupervised teenagers screaming and blocking the sidewalks and various questionable characters milling around - and lots of homeless in the parks. The area surrounding the historic district is very run down and felt extremely unsafe - so I would limit my activities to daytime in the historic district. But I still enjoyed exploring the town and would definitely come back for the museums. Rabalias Cajun restaurant was also fantastic! I'll be stopping there again next time I visit the nature preserve.

I can't wait to come back one day for a Haunted Whittier Tour! Instead of donating money to the museum we loaded up on a couple souvenirs instead. This museum is definitely worth a few visits since the displays are constantly changing and evolving.
