The property location was excellent! Close to everything and convenient. We stayed in a cottage that had a small kitchen. The room was clean, however, they are old and in need of updating. You definitely want to wear shoe’s inside

Liked: Staff & service
The room was okay for our 2 night stay. There was an odd smell in our room and the floor was dirty. The staff was very kind when we asked for housekeeping to go in and mop our floors and when we asked for new sheets and towels. Hotel is a little outdated but it would be okay for a short term stay.

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
Our stay was pleasant. The setup of the hotel is very unique, in that the rooms are cottage style. However, the building looked and felt old, and the room we stayed in did not feel very clean. It looked like it had been renovated, but not a complete job. But, the service was great and helped us with whatever we needed. Overall, it was an ok spot to lay our heads at night, but I don’t think we’d stay there again unless they do something about the condition of the rooms/building.

the cottage was really cute, the restroom was smaller than it looked in photos but that wasn’t too much of a problem. i enjoyed how we had a functioning kitchen in the room as well as appliances and utensils? they came in very handy. the bed, pillows, and blankets were also quite comfortable and soft. and it was very nice that we were able to leave our luggage in the luggage room even after check out so we could still explore the island before getting on the ferry to leave. overall i enjoyed my stay and would definitely stay here again

It’s basically a place to stay and nothing else. The beds are about as cheap as you can find, the bathroom is about the size of a closet, and the room has a view of a wall from all windows. It’s one of the cheaper places on Catalina island and you get what you pay for. Also, this room is tiny. Just enough space for two full size beds and that’s it.
