Brief visit
We enjoyed our stay on Saturday 11/14/24. The room was cozy and bed comfortable. It was fancy but provided a good spot for resting while touring around Avalon.

Motel 6 of Catalina
Hotel was a touch below average. Service was bad. When they cleaned the room we’d have to let it air out the chemical smell was so bad. The hotel would not let us store our bags without paying. I would not recommend this hotel.

Room was too small for the price charged. No bottled water in the room to make coffee. Asked for extra creamer for coffee. Didnt get it. Bed was lumpy and very uncomfortable. No desk or chairs in the room. Disappointed with this hotel. Wont stay here again. Too pricey.

Don't they even realize that the toilet seat cover is much smaller than the toilet in my room? I don't like my ass touching the cold ceramic. The paint on the wall area between the mirror and the sink is bad. This is certainly NOT a 5-star facility.

Really enjoyed our time at the hotel. Location was amazing, the room was modern, clean, and well designed. The staff was friendly and accommodating. The restaurant was a great brunch and drink surprise while the rooftop lounges were perfect for late evening wine and ocean breezes.
