This hotel was fantastic!! Start your day at your in room coffee bar and then head to the rooftop to enjoy their spectacular view. You truly can see EVERYTHING from there! Grab a towl, beach chair and or floaty (FREE for guests) and walk across the street to the beautiful sandy beach. Hop on a bike downstairs (FREE to guests) and cruise to Descanza beach for lunch or pedal around town to see the sights. You have everything you need here, including a full service restaurant in the lobby with a cute "curb side" patio option. The bed and pillows were comfy and the hotel was very quiet, perfect recipe for a good nights sleep. All of the staff was friendly & attentive, we can't wait to come back!
There is nothing to praise except location. The room is tiny bordering on the cleaning closet. The walls are thin and in our case were awoken by loud guests at 1:30 am

Loved our room and the friendly staff. Great place to visit and we’ll be back soon. Located a bike next to the water near the restaurants and stores. You can walk there from the boat.
Nice hotel. Catalina is small and everything is a short walk.

Anniversary weekend
35tg anniversary weekend in Catalina and had higher expectations based on price point of this hotel. It has been remolded but it’s still old. Rooms do not have a real door, it’s a sliding glass patio door and there is minimal privacy since courtyard rooms all face each other. Kept the privacy curtains most of the time so we felt claustrophobic the entire 3 nights. There are tiny windows high up on the back wall that couldn’t be reached to open. Rooms are so small and no seating available except on he courtyard, which we used.
The upper public deck had amazing views and the beach was right across the street. These amenities I guess made up for some the the lacking amenities in the room.
Staff was friendly and they work hard to keep it clean. Very hardworking folks.
Another feature we appreciated were the use of the beach cruisers and beach chairs.
Overall it was a wonderful weekend and made the best of the room even though I dreaded returning at the end of everyday.
By far the location is great and staff friendly. Cleaning crew was awesome and did an amazing job. Our room was so clean and fresh it was a perfect spot to come to and rest to tackle another day in beautiful Avalon. Nothing but great service. Surely will be staying again.
Hotel is immaculate. It had a nice view sitting area that was appreciated because our room was very small. The room was well appointed with good storage, modern decor and extremely clean.
