Excellent Hotel and staff. Was a wonderful experience and will definitely stay there again on our next trip to Catalina. The property was well-maintained, in excellent condition, and decorated exceptionally well. Rooms are small but very classy and comfortable. The staff was very friendly, accommodating, and outgoing.

Great location. Check in was easy with some options to use discounts on local restaurants. They give you $20 to spend but you have to use it the day of check in (fine print) or else it's not honored. Rooms are nice-smaller side but clean and efficient.
