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.
Perfect view

Wonderful hotel, built back in 1892 so that it's rooted in history. Steps away from the harbor, half a block up a steep side street that's far quieter than those running parallel to it and closer to the all the cafes, bars, and souvenir shops. Don't expect luxury, there's not even an elevator. We had a third-floor room with a view of the ocean, with two reading chairs to enjoy that view and a very comfortable bed. Ample bathroom & all very clean & tidy. At the end of the corridor, a wide porch with lounge chairs & sunlight. Staff exceptionally nice. We will stay there again next time we have the enormous pleasure of visiting this enchanted island.

This is a very old property that isn’t easily navigated when it’s dark. The kind check in lady helped me with my bag. They have limited front desk hours which isn’t clear

Very fun, quirky hotel. We did have a ghost in our room though, which kept turning on our light in the middle of the night but once we acknowledged it, it stopped and let us sleep. Same thing happened to two other people from our group, they said the same thing happened to them - seems to be a friendly ghost.
