Good price

Another good stay at Hotel Catalina. Like always very clean and excellent service. Second time staying in room 15. I forgot why I wasn’t to please last visit. This room has a very tight bathroom. Unable to sit on toilet and close the door normally. Outside noise was much better this time.
