Overall perfect hotel for a quick weekend visit to Catalina. Bed was reasonably comfortable. Bathroom was a little dated and small but for a 2-3 day visit it was fine.

8/10 Good

I really liked how the people at the front desk were very friendly. Explained everything of our stay, how our room keys would work,etc. I liked how they had a free breakfast during our stay. Not a whole breakfast station but it had pastries, fruit, coffee, juice and yogurt. Very nice and well stocked. Clean room and comfy bed. I'll return to this hotel for sure.
Yuri, 2-night trip

8/10 Good

This hotel is well maintained but in need of updates. The rooms are clean and comfortable. The location is amazing. We were aware that it was the oldest hotel in the area but minor touch ups would go a long way.
