Casa Mariquita Disappointed

Pros: Comfortable bed: good water pressure Cons: Office Hours posted as 9:00 - 3:00 Monday - Thursday. Check-in time scheduled at 3:00. Called number on the door and waited 15 minutes for assistance. At no time was there anyone in the office. Replacement ironing board requested - never received. Poor customer service; would not stay here again.

The staff were really nice and professional. The room is very small and it had a wet smell. The wifi was horrible. Our devices did not connect. I notified the staff the next day because they are only there from a certain time. She had no clue on how to troubleshoot or fix the issue. The price is reasonable. I will not be staying there in the near future.

This really should be 4 stars . Great room in a quaint seaside “villiage” Avalon, Catalina island. An hour from the mainland, Los Angeles! Older hotel; very clean; large room with King size bed. Ours had balcony with partial ocean view. Service and management were awesome . Highly recommended

Sewer water was out until 4pm. Front desk forgot to mention. At once, TV signal kept going out. When reported , she couldn't resolve. She offered to place me in other room, smaller n not what i paid. No mention of any adjustment or discount given. I chose to stay on same room. Next day, maintenance could not resolve TV issue. Reminded them that it was intermittent. Front desk person saw it first day. Noisy plumbing, and you could hear everything from next doors.

The walls were very thin and conversations next door were audible as well as walking upstairs. It was a very dark room with the windows facing the outdoor hallway and the other rooms. The beds were creaky and loud when you moved. The room smelled musty.

Casa Mariquita was conveniently located near restaurants and grocery shopping. Me and my wife had a wonderful stay and recommend stay at this hotel. The only downside was having to walk up stairs to the 4th floor to our hotel room.We had a beautiful view on the 4th floor and our room had a partial view of the ocean.

Room smelled damp; my mother could hardly sleep. We had to keep the window open even though it was freezing outside. Office is open 8-2pm and check in is at 3pm! We had to wait until 4:20 for someone to show up, and had to call twice. The card reader wasn't working so they had to do the transaction by phone with another hotel card reader.
