The property is a little outdated, but a good stay overall. Facility was clean, and staff was very friendly. My dislikes however were how thin the walls are. Our neighbors were up playing music till midnight, and then woke up at 7am to continue the party….terrible. Also, there were a lot of bugs outside, ants inside the room, and the sinks in the bathroom splash water everywhere. We enjoyed our balcony with ocean view, but again l, everything was a bit too close to the neighbors for my liking.

Ok room, no frills. Tv turned itself off and on all night, which was a bit creepy. Very inconvenient that hotel will not store baggage upon checkout.

I love this hotel, absolutely fantastic. The staff extremely helpful, they allowed us to check our bags into the hotel until our room is ready so we could go walk around the island. The beautiful hotel is very nostalgic Catalina.

The hotel is very old and super over priced for the condition of the rooms and bathroom. There was one young lady at the front desk that was incredibly rude and unhelpful. There are other newer and fancier hotels much closer to front street for the same price.

Weve been to Catalina many times. This is the first time a hotel refused to store our bags. Also no mini fridge or microwave. Other than that, rooms were beautiful. Most of the staff were very nice.
