10/10 Exceptional

A delightful stay

The ocean view was lovely. Short walk into town. Quiet and slept very well. We did not need the AC, the weather was perfect. The hotel is over 100 years old hotel and decorated old Victorian. The service was excellent and the rooms were very clean.
Annie, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Old hotel but sufficient for a night in Avalon. They really need to add a coffee service at minimum.

Catalina Charm

Cute historic hotel. Clean, comfortable and close to shops, restaurants, and the beach. Only wish they had coffee in the morning.

Well worth the stay,perfect location!

Everything was great! Super responsive, friendly,helpful staff! Only issue was the shower water pressure! I felt like Will Ferrel in the movie Elf taking a shower!😂

Would definitely stay here again

Had a good stay here, can’t complain especially for the price compared to the other hotels on the island. I would stay here again.

This hotel is so good place.
Felipe, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

These are quaint older SMALL rooms, but the location is hard to beat. It would be challenging for larger people in some rooms, but for one petite me it was great. The staff was extra kind and helpful. It's no bells and whistles, I don't think the TV even worked, and the water takes a while to heat up, no coffee or water or breakfast offered, but really for the cost it was great.

Cute vintage vibe - right next to the main strip

We enjoyed staying here! The hotel is quite old, with a lot of character. The room was very, very small, so be prepared for that. Everything was clean and had a nice, clean smell. Sadly, there was no coffee in the room or even in the hotel! That's almost a deal breaker. Also, no fan in the bathroom which sucks but is kind of common in hotels. The staff were all very good. The view was excellent - right out to the harbor! It's also only a half block from the main strip/beach so you can't get any more convenient! The value was really good so if you are trying to stay on a budget, this is a fantastic option.

The staff was awesome!! I will always choose your hotel whenever I go to Catalina.
Thomas, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

The property is a bit old (think cracking paint and such) but I really enjoyed it. The staff is great and my room was so quiet and peaceful. I had a water view! The area is lovely and safe, I felt comfortable my entire stay and wish I could have stayed longer. I’ll be back! Thanks Mona, Nancy and Maria for a nice relaxing stay!

Deep sleepers sleep here

We are light sleepers so the walls being thin made it hard to sleep well, and every door closing, footsteps upstairs was clearly heard. Can't beat the pricing and location though compared to other places. So it's a great deal for deep sleepers.

I’ve come here for 20 years.

I’ve stayed at this hotel off and on for close to 20 years and while it was in need of a renovation when I was younger, it is quite lovely now! Everything was spotless, bed was comfy, good room over all. Front desk ladies were friendly. I believe the sweet owner (?) was there on the porch every morning and waved us goodbye and to have a nice day. I love this place cuz the prices are affordable and the hotel itself is historic and has pleasant accommodations. Will most likely stay here next time we come!

The property was within walking distance of the ferry terminal. The cottage was small but perfect as a home base since we were exploring shops, restaurants and the beach.

Cute Stay <3

I was skeptical because of the reviews but i LOVED it here! So close to everything! The check in/check out process was fast and the staff was so nice! The place is timeless, cute little oldish hotel (i loved this about it) the bed was comfy, roomy mini fridge. I would definitely book here again. Also, very inexpensive for being mid July!

4/10 Fair

Staff was friendly but hotel is run down need some remodeling / updating for sure , no ac which I was ok with . The bath tub was peeling if your looking for a cheap stay I would recommend it I don’t recommend if your wanting a nice comfortable stay . I would definitely skip this hotel next time . I must say staff is very friendly.

My friend and I loved this place! Super cute and quaint and it was perfect for a simple trip to the island. The amenities were perfect and I loved that there was a Roku in the room so we could watch Netflix after a day of relaxing in the sun :)
