Motel 6 of Catalina
Hotel was a touch below average. Service was bad. When they cleaned the room we’d have to let it air out the chemical smell was so bad. The hotel would not let us store our bags without paying. I would not recommend this hotel.

Room was too small for the price charged. No bottled water in the room to make coffee. Asked for extra creamer for coffee. Didnt get it. Bed was lumpy and very uncomfortable. No desk or chairs in the room. Disappointed with this hotel. Wont stay here again. Too pricey.

Anniversary weekend
35tg anniversary weekend in Catalina and had higher expectations based on price point of this hotel. It has been remolded but it’s still old. Rooms do not have a real door, it’s a sliding glass patio door and there is minimal privacy since courtyard rooms all face each other. Kept the privacy curtains most of the time so we felt claustrophobic the entire 3 nights. There are tiny windows high up on the back wall that couldn’t be reached to open. Rooms are so small and no seating available except on he courtyard, which we used.
The upper public deck had amazing views and the beach was right across the street. These amenities I guess made up for some the the lacking amenities in the room.
Staff was friendly and they work hard to keep it clean. Very hardworking folks.
Another feature we appreciated were the use of the beach cruisers and beach chairs.
Overall it was a wonderful weekend and made the best of the room even though I dreaded returning at the end of everyday.

Nice amenities
Hotel is immaculate. It had a nice view sitting area that was appreciated because our room was very small. The room was well appointed with good storage, modern decor and extremely clean.

Very convenient location. Great rooftop views. Rooms are extremely small. Didn’t even have a proper chair to sit in or electrical outlets on either side of bed. Room clean.
