The room was cheap, there was a huge cockroach in our room. We also left 3 coconut waters in our fridge by accident when we checked out and came back an hour later to get them but instead found the hotel staff in the lobby eating food drinking our coconut waters. You could say that we had checked out already but the hotel staff knew we were returning because they were holding our luggage for us (really just told us to put it in the corner of the lobby) so they knew we would return. You could at least just put our coconut water with our stuff. Really funny thing that happened with the coconut water but still not ok. I would definitely spend the extra money at another place.

No one answers the emergency line and their mailbox was full. No one was ever at the front desk- even 15 minutes before checkout and they close super early . No one cleaned the room or even replaced towels and toiletries. The room was cold and the beds only had sheets and a stingy blanket. The ocean view was obscured by trash and storage of broken patio furniture. Yeah… not going back.

The hotel was just perfect. We wanted to stay in Catalina but didn't have unlimited funds. The rooms were very clean. Beds were comfortable and the pillows were amazing! The bathroom is very small but you only need for a couple reasons. There are 3 floors and we stayed on the 3rd. Carrying suitcases was a little difficult but that was worth it to be on the top floor. Great view and front desk was very nice. Definitely would bring my family and stay here again.
