Convenient to Avalon
Small but satisfactory stay with all necessary amenities. Fold out sofa was very comfortable as a second bedroom. Very clean and convenient to everything. I would stay here again when I return to Avalon.

Cute little housing rental
Our family group of 3 stayed at the rental for 3 nights. We arrived in the rain on a Thursday night. It was cold and wet. The rental was easy to find, located behind a front unit and up a few stairs. I love the solar night lighting located along the stairs, making it easy to see where to go. The rental was tidy but some things could of had a better cleaning like, the stove/ oven/coffee filter/towels. The towels had bleach stains on them and after using them after just one shower, they smelled rather musty. Since we stayed in March and it was cold, the rental has no built-in heating so it took a while to warm up. The space heater in the main living space worked well but it took some time to warm the whole space. The couch was a bit bumpy to sleep on. The bed in the main bedroom was wonderful, very comfy, soft and warm. The kitchen was equipped with everything we needed for our short stay. The tap water had a slight chlorine taste so we bought bottled water from Vons down the street. I loved the location. It was quiet and safe. It would be so nice to have some outdoor seating at the rear of the unit. All in all, we had a fantastic stay and did so many wonderful things. I would definitely be back and would consider staying at the same location in the future.

Super clean and convenient spot
We had a lovely 2 days here. The condo was super clean and easy to access. A few blocks from the water and a few blocks from Garnet St made it walkable to everything we needed. Great stay!
The unit was within walking distance of downtown and the grocery store. It was furnished with all the items you might need (kitchenware, bedding, etc.). It does have A/C but the portable kind and didn't really cool off the bedroom (ceiling fan helped with that). I would stay again.
Perfectly cozy cottage with everything we needed to enjoy our Catalina getaway

Pleasant stay
Amazing neighborhood. Pleasant stay. Veronica kindly let us check-in early. There was a stain on the sheets, so we took a photo of it. Other than that the place looked amazing. It is in walk-able distance to multiple beaches and the strip mall area.
There is a Vons nearby where we got our groceries for our stay. Our son enjoyed the stay so much.
