Everything is good it’s quaint. Very close to all the shops. Yes it’s outdated and run down. Who cares, it’s a great location for a great price. Room was ready like 4 hrs early as they kind of plan for when people come off the ferry. I would recommend it!

Perfect ocean view! Room was bigger than I expected. The only issue I had was that no one was there to answer questions prior to arriving.

Appreciated the convenient location, beautiful beach and wonderful, helpful staff all around. Had some difficulties beyond their control with power outages and a scary elevator moment plus noise from construction nearby so it wasn’t as quiet as we’d hoped but again, beyond anyone’s control. Would definitely stay again.

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.
