Very Good

Good location about 7 to 10 minute walk from the boat dock to the hotel. For the price range hotel definitely is worth it. Staff did an excellent job and were very accommodating.
The environment was really positive, receptionists made the check in process really easy. The room was clean and the bed comfortable I highly recommend
The room was quaint and perfect for our needs. Mona, the owner, was such a doll and super friendly. Would definitely stay here again and highly recommend.

Liked: Cleanliness
Its an older hotel, and looks it, but the staff is friendly and the room spotless. I would stay here again.
I am completely satisfied with my experience and my stay. From being greeted at the entrance by Brenda and Nancy, which were both amazing! We are definitely coming back and looking forward to seeing them again. One of the best places I have had a great experience from beginning to end while traveling.
If anyone is looking for somewhere to stay while in Catalina, I highly recommend this place.
This was a great value compared to where we stayed last time. The staff and Mona were awesome people! Very kind and attentive. The room was clean and comfortable for our two-night stay. I will definitely come back to this place.
This was not an ocean view room. Hotel Catalina is an old building with a lot of the historical charm that an old building has to offer. The room was very spacious. There is staff at the front desk only until 8pm.
