I'll be honest, the location of the house is good, everything is close, but we had some disappointments since when we arrived the property has two "studios" we arrived without realizing which one it was and we opened the first apartment. , and we went up to the other studio and opened it with the same code that was opened in the one below, so we got worried and dialed and told them what was happening and they told us that it was a lie that they were not there. Even though we were able to open it, they denied everything. Another thing is that the sheets in the room were very dirty as well as the blankets. I don't recommend this place.

Super squeaky floors throughout, bathroom sink has constant leak. Veronica was very nice. Neighbor had to say where the trash barrels were. Couch was very uncomfortable. Sliding door didn’t open and screen was broken.

Clean, comfortable, and cozy apartment
My husband and I enjoyed a comfortable stay at this cozy little apartment. The apartment is just a short walk to main shopping and dining area so it was convenient. The apartment itself is on the older side and there is no air conditioner (not abnormal for Catalina Island) but there was plenty of fans you can use. The shower door needs to be fixed as it doesn’t close properly and water can leak out. Some of the blinds needs to be fixed as well as they did not retract properly or stay open. Lastly the notes on the cabinets should probably be removed as they tell the renter they will be charged for any missing plates, cups, silverware and knives. It is tacky in my opinion to tell your renter this. When I asked the property host she told me not to pay attention to those signs. I would remove them if I was the host. The host was responsive and brought us soap when we asked for it. Overall we would stay here again.

Decent
The space was decent. The floors were dirty and the toilet was severely clogged the majority of our stay (we were only there for a weekend). We messaged the liaison about the clogged toilet the night we arrived and had to message again the next morning. In between these times, the toilet overflowed 3 times, no matter how much we plunged, and my poor partner had to clean up some really nasty messes. It was eventually fixed for the last 6-12 hours of our stay. Other than that nasty mess and the dirty floors, the stay was great

My girlfriend and I loved staying here! It was the perfect size for 2 people. We loved having the grocery store less than a block away and being so centrally located. We spent 4 days here. A couple things to improve on would be that the shower door doesn’t close, the pillows and linens aren’t comfortable (they felt old), most of the coffee cups are chipped, and the TV doesn’t have Netflix or similar apps. It could use some updates. Other than that, everything else was a breeze. A special Thank you to our host Veronica who let us check out an hour later, so we didn’t have to lug our bags around town.
