Location is great. Friendly staff and easy check in. This place is OLD, so rooms are small and a little run down. Bathroom was also small. We stayed in a double queen room that was a little snug for us 2 and our 6 yo.

The staff at the hotel were very friendly and helpful. It wasn’t a luxury property, but we were only there to sleep. Convenient to walk around town to all the shops and restaurants, as well as the beach club for kayak rentals and snorkeling in front of the Casino theater. I would definitely book again!

Location was perfect, the beds are comfy but the room itself is small. Near the center of town, easily walkable from the Catalina Express. Prices aren’t bad. Standard toiletries made available as well as fridge, microwave, hairdryer, and iron as well as a luggage room and 24/7 helpline (but clerk not on duty outside of regular working hours).

Very interesting historic property. Clean rooms, kept decently up to date. A/C worked, which was crucial to comfort even in April. Kitchenette was nice to have. Upper floors are accessible by stairs only, so mobility limited persons should check for lower level room availability. Some rooms are reportedly haunted, if you're into that sort of thing. Though the hotel staff and I are skeptical.

Very historic building, good location and walkable community. Very safe. The hotel is very quiet but the space is very dated and in serious need of renovation. No housekeeping done while we were out and staff seemed disinterested.

The staff was extremely friendly and accommodating from the time we checked in and until check out. They provided helpful suggestions to bike rental locations to make our stay more memorable. The room was clean and neatly laid out. It would get warm during the afternoon time, but the air conditioner and fan helped to keep the room comfortable. One of the suggestions I would make is to fix the bathroom door because it would have to be lifted to open and close it each time. On another note, would be to add another small collapsible table or coat rack to place suitcases or hang jackets/sweaters.

Booked this for a cheap 2 night stay for a fishing trip for my son and I. Probably the smallest room I've ever stayed In. There was really no closet or place to store anything. The bathroom was so small you had to contort your body to make room to close the bathroom door. During the night it got chilly but we could not get the heater to work. Room was very pricey for what we got but it's Avalon and everything is expensive.
