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.

Great location and bones. Needs investment.

The hotel has a cute exterior and roof deck. The rooms are utilitarian and dated. Laminate hardwood floor with no rugs. Basic economy bed and nightstands. Bathrooms appear mid-80s and dilapidated. This needs investment to be at modern hotel standards.

Fine

This was a lovely place to stay for the celebration we were making. Unfortunately the upstairs deck's furniture was old and not in good shape. The picture is not what is there and the lobby furniture could of been upgraded to a newer condition of furniture for the prices they charge. Overall we enjoyed our scenic view room.

The staff was very nice and the rooms were okay. A little outdated but ok. What really threw us off was the uphill walk to get to the hotel, which makes sense as to why it’s cheaper than surrounding hotels but it was a tough walk as someone that’s pretty pregnant. But overall it was a good stay, everything was within minutes.
