Quaint

The hotel aurora was nice. What it lacked in space the professionalism of the staff and the the cleanliness of the place definitely made up for it. I enjoyed my stay very much the only complaint i have to confess is the construction outside had my body twisting like a contortionist.

There were so many hotels on the island to choose from but what did it for me was the roof top view. Simply amazing especially during a sunrise. Melissa at the front desk was so gracious, helpful and so friendly. Only down fall to the hotel was the walls are very thin. I would definitely recommend this hotel when coming to Catalina.

Love the location of property where everything was within walking distance like restaurants, shopping, riding buses to museums for only a $1 since we do not drive.

I didn't like that the room was sooo tiny. I didn't like the fact that they tried to give us one white facetowel and one brown one and then when asked for another white one, they didn't have any for awhile. Didn't like the annoying woodpecker outside our room. Didn't like the lack thereof of breakfast in the a.m. But the sausage links were pretty good
