Catalina Canyon Inn

Catalina Canyon Inn

8/10 Good
"Very pleasant stay. The room was clean, with just a couple of minor issues. Our room lacked an iron, and they forgot to bring it to us. There were no cups in the gym room with the water dispenser. Other than that, the room was very cute and clean. A little cozy, but just right for what we needed. Nice grounds and good value. :)"

"The courtyard room was very small, so we upgraded to a larger room (101), which was very nice, but needs lighting on the bedside tables. The only other downside for being on 1st floor is the foot traffic from room above, sounded like someone was running a relay race upstairs 😳"
