“Chantico Inn presents a quaint exterior, though some rooms show their age with dated furnishings and dim lighting; what's more, reports mention unexpected charges and difficulties contacting staff, which could detract from a relaxing stay. While the location in Ojai holds appeal, potential guests should weigh reported issues against the Inn's rustic charm.”
