Need to update the rooms,

Liked:I like the fact that it was close to the pier. I liked the staff was very nice.

Disliked:The proper property is not well maintained. The rooms are so not well designed the way they just throw in the double beds. There’s no style to the room. I paid almost $500 for two double beds and I could not believe how awful the setup was. I understand Catalina is a busy island and therefore some people don’t even have to put an effort in however if you’re charging that much for a room and there’s sand in the sheets there’s a problem. It’s a historic building and it should’ve had a beautiful interior remodel or style to the furniture. The room that we were in, we could hear the kids running up and down the hallway. The view was not what I was expecting, especially when I was told that I was getting one of the best rooms.
