I had a fantastic stay at the hotel with an awesome view of the casino from my room balcony. The rooms were clean, comfortable, and had lovely balconies. The service was top-notch, with welcome drinks and assistance with tours available. The hotel's location right across the street from the beach made it convenient and enjoyable. However, the dining experience was a bit of a letdown with service in a drive nook on plastic plates.

I had a wonderful stay at this hotel! The rooms are beautifully designed with a contemporary style and offer an awesome view of the Casino. Plus, having a patio was a lovely touch that enhanced my experience. However, I did find the dining experience a bit lacking, as being served on plastic plates felt a bit off-putting. Overall, a great place to stay with a few minor drawbacks.

The hotel offers a stunning view of the Casino, in a contemporary style with balconies. The service includes shops/commercial services, welcome drink, tours/ticket assistance, and happy hour. The location is on Catalina Island, right across the street from the beach. Dining is a disgrace served in the drive nook on plastic plates, but includes seasonal salads. The facilities are good overall.
