Our stay was lovely. Great location with a great veiw as well. Only thing is the room next to us was very loud at about 9:30pm and when we called the front desk no one answered when we were told the front desk closes at 10pm. Minor inconvenience but a lovely time otherwise.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
Staff was very nice, but we had to interact with them too much. Quite a few things broke during our stay. In addition, there is a big window between the bedroom and the bathroom in the junior suite. Everytime you go into the bathroom, the light auto turns on and makes the whole bedroom bright. The bathroom also has a pocket door with a big gap and no fan. Also, lots of stairs. The AC works great though.

Every thing was great! The room is smallish but comfortable. There is a balcony with a view but it’s only 2ft deep so really not possible to sit on it. The roof top deck is terrific and we enjoyed bkfst and a glass of wine later in the day out there. The staff is friendly and helpful. The only caution is that there is a short hill ( maybe .25 miles) leading to it. For some dragging a bag up it can be difficult.

clean and friendly staff. It was an uphill walk, because we walked to hotel. Not sure I would stay there again only for that reason. there are no Ubers in Catalina. really there is no need, almost everything walking distant. But if you get a ride or dont mind the uphill walk, cute little place. rooms were also small.
