Hotel a 3 stelle in California, Stati Uniti d'America

My wife and I visited Catalina Island for our 28th anniversary — our first time back since before we were married in 1997. We chose the Catalina Canyon Inn specifically for the pool, jacuzzi, on-site restaurant, and shuttle service. Their website is very nice and seemed like a perfect match for the occasion. Unfortunately, very little matched what was advertised. Shuttle: The shuttle was not waiting at the Catalina Express port when we arrived on the last ferry Saturday evening which was unexpected. Four of us were left waiting in the dark for about 20 minutes until the other couple called the hotel. The driver was friendly and apologized, but this set the tone for the weekend. The shuttle was consistently unreliable throughout our stay. They tell you to call the driver directly, but he often didn't answer. You'd end up having to call the hotel instead, and the shuttle only seemed to come after someone went inside and told the front desk in person. At one point we waited 45 minutes. Some guests got frustrated and just decided to walk, but the hotel sits at the top of a steep hill — not a realistic option, especially for older guests like us. Their website suggests the shuttle runs regularly, but that was far from our experience. Restaurant: We arrived at the restaurant at 7:30 PM Saturday and were turned away, even though their website says they're open until 8:00 PM. We had to rush down the hill to find dinner to-go in town before the shuttle stopped running at 8:45. It was a shame we didn't even have time to stay and eat on our anniversary or face having to trek up that hill. The next morning I mentioned this to the restaurant owner, who insisted they closed at 8:00 and that she was there. She then told us the restaurant closes at 2:00 PM on Sundays — so dinner there that night wasn't an option either. She was very friendly though I must say. On Monday we finally had breakfast before checkout. The food was mediocre and didn't match the glowing reviews at all. The prices were also odd — $12 for mozzarella sticks, $20 for nachos, but only $11 for pulled pork sliders, which you'd expect to be the pricier item. The pricing just didn't add up. While we were there, another couple was turned away at 1:30 PM because the restaurant closes from 2–4 on Mondays. We could feel their frustration. Jacuzzi: The jacuzzi we were looking forward to was covered up and converted into a gazebo with chairs. At first we couldn't find it but yea. No mention of this on the website. Room issues: The soap dispenser in the shower was empty. The front desk told us we can mention it to housekeeping, who didn't come until after 5:00 PM. We got the soap and a couple fresh towels. The towels themselves were thin and didn't dry well overnight so fresh ones were sorely needed to get at least one shower in with soap before we had to leave the next day. The TV didn't work at all, and the microwave was unplugged — though I was able to fix that myself. The hotel also doesn't offer complimentary coffee, which is standard at most hotels we've stayed at for half the price. The good: The staff was friendly, the bed was comfortable, the A/C worked well, and the balcony was a nice touch. The room was quiet. Bottom line: The website gives a very different impression than what you actually get. Between the unreliable shuttle, limited and unpredictable restaurant hours, missing amenities, thin towels, and no coffee, this was not the anniversary experience we hoped for. I'd recommend staying somewhere closer to downtown so you're not dependent on a shuttle and stuck with limited options. I think we need to redo our anniversary. It was a miss for sure.

Ci piaceva davvero questo hotel per una serie di motivi: (1) Camera grande, pulita e confortevole con un sacco di spazio di magazzinaggio e un divano confortevole. Microonde, Keurig, e un congelatore decente. (2) È stato un personale molto amichevole, soprattutto la cameriera e la signora che ha curato il colazione. (3) Grande posizione per visitare Yosemite - circa quanto più vicino possibile senza essere nel parco - non più di 15 minuti dalla porta. Il colazione era uova a vapore e salsa, tosta, muffin, frutta e cereali. Per più di questo c'è un vicino Denny. C'è una piscina, camere a vapore e tubo caldo, ma non abbiamo portato vestiti da nuoto, quindi non posso commentarli. Sarebbe sicuramente rimasto.

距離機場汽車10分鐘，大概5公里之內。在酒店朝北的房間，可以直接看到高速公路101對面的飛機的起降（隔音好，聽不到任何噪音）。 酒店在一羣剛剛建成的建築羣裏，後面停車場很大，房間和設備非常新，這在美國不常見。房間大，有簡單的廚具和爐子，適合帶小朋友出來，可以簡單做一些吃的。 因為周圍都是新建築，目前對面衹有兩個快餐店（其中一家是美國有名的中餐連鎖Panda），其餘還是在招租狀態，估計需要一年多才會有更多配套設施。不過，對面社區裏面有三四家餐廳，其中有西海岸有明的漢堡店In-N-Out。 酒店就在灣區快軌BART 車站，可以做快軌快速去硅谷舊金山。 酒店提供早餐，對於美國酒店而言，還算不錯了: 煮雞蛋🥚、炒雞蛋、麪包、燕麥粥、窩扶、酸奶、咖啡……

Ideal hotel for 1 night stay before flight. Near airport, big room with balcony and view. Room clean. Near hotel bus stop for airport bus, easy to go to airport even at night. What can be better - restaurant and bar closed, so if you need food or drink need to go far away.

È un po' lontano dalla stazione ferroviaria, ma per fortuna c'è un McDonald's proprio di fronte e una fermata dell'autobus proprio di fronte, quindi è pulito, tranquillo e sicuro. C'è anche un ristorante all'interno dell'hotel. Il sistema di sicurezza è molto efficiente perché bisogna toccare l'ascensore ogni volta prima di poter salire.

L'indirizzo dell'alloggio può essere convenientemente situato vicino alla fermata dell'autobus. Ci è un negozio di comodità. Ristoranti nella stessa zona Il disavanzo è che è un quartiere con molte persone senzatetto. Per la pulizia ci sono alcuni che sono puliti e alcuni non sono puliti perché è un luogo per stare con molte persone. In generale, tutto è ragionevole secondo il prezzo pagato.

As a vintage style hotel, it provides most of your needs. Wish there’s a fridge for long stays. The front desk staff is very friendly. Even though a continental breakfast is served, it hass an upgraded food selections including hot dishes, i.e. scrambled eggs, sausages, etc. I’ll revisit here next in town.

Grande esperienza! Impianti: l'apparecchiatura è completamente perfezionata e le esigenze sono ininterrotti. Salute: le camere e lo spazio pubblico sono molto puliti e sanitari, che sono confortevoli. Ambiente: comodo, vicino è il supermercato, con il migliore by, Wal Mart, ecc., e il ristorante, con cibo meraviglioso, cibo giapponese, fast food, cibo mexico, ecc. Servizio: il servizio è molto buono, c'è una domanda e una risposta, e l'atteggiamento è entusiasta.

Situato vicino alla stazione della metropolitana di Artesia, l'hotel si trova in una zona recintata, quindi sembra impossibile attraversare i binari per raggiungere direttamente la struttura. Ho scelto l'LA Crystal Hotel pensando di poterci arrivare a piedi dopo aver preso la metropolitana fino alla stazione di Artesia (secondo Google Maps). Abbiamo preso l'autobus alla stazione della metropolitana e, dopo una sola fermata, bisogna ancora attraversare la strada a piedi (fate molta attenzione ai camion e alle auto che arrivano in senso opposto, perché potrebbe esserci un punto cieco quando svoltano verso la vostra corsia!). Tuttavia, al ritorno alla stazione della metropolitana, si può camminare facilmente (senza rischiare di attraversare la strada questa volta) e scendere lungo la discesa senza dover prendere l'autobus per la stazione di Artesia. Ho apprezzato la postazione self-service per preparare i waffle (vedi foto) a colazione.

Without giving any reason, the staff sent me to another staff member to check me in while he continued assisting others. I was checked into a room that was already occupied. They kept saying they were experiencing system errors, which prevented them from telling which room had been taken. It took me about 2 hours to check into a room. However, the room was filled with a bad odor.
