Premier Inns Thousand Oaks

Good place overall.

Pros: Some of the staff were very courteous and attentive, responding to questions and assistance I needed, and very friendly. The room was very clean and comfortable, quite a bit better than some other places I've stayed in the area, as well as a nice size. There is fantastic access to restaurants in the area and the Premier Inn itself is very easy to find. I quite liked having a selection of places to eat within walking distance.

Cons: Had an issue with neighbors playing loud music and after I called the front desk to have them turn it down, they retaliated by pounding on my door and running off in the middle of the night. Not the fault of the staff, but still annoying and a bit alarming. I requested a fridge and microwave in my room when I booked online, but did not get either. I wasn't notified at all that I wouldn't get one ahead of checking in and when I did find out upon check in, the man at the front desk told me that fridges and microwaves are only available in certain rooms. There are no further explanation or offer to be moved to a room with a fridge and microwave. I'm not sure why some rooms would have it and some not, since there was plenty of space in my room to accommodate a mini fridge and small microwave.

OK for place to shower and sleep

Pros: Good location for what i needed. 45 min north of LAX which could be 1.5 hours in peak traffic. Staff was friendly and helpful.

Cons: Older facility right on interstate 101. A bit loud and run down but served its purpose for an inexpensive place to stay.
