Stayed at El Terado Terrace for a short trip to Avalon and overall had a good experience. The location is a big plus — it’s close enough to downtown to walk, but far enough to be quiet and relaxed. The outdoor terrace areas are nice, especially for coffee in the morning or winding down at night.

Have to say the only downside is that the stove looks like it's from the 70's. It works but it's a place to put your head and enjoy Catalina Island. Would stay there again. But notice that the price is pretty high on weekends. Enjoy.
