Location great. Clean. Being an older hotel, only had one elevator and the farthest rooms were quite the walk. But we all need exercise. No coffee pots in rooms nor a chair in our room. Very small rooms but beautifully done. No restaurant but a small walk-up with great coffee and scones. All in all, we loved our stay.

The staff, and especially Mateo, were absolutely WONDERFUL!! The staff did Special little things that made our stay even more special. The only thing that was a drawback was the size of the room - extremely small but well appointed for size, so for one night it was fine. Overall great

The property was beautiful with modern decorations and comfortable beds. The location was great, short walking distance to shops, restaurants, beach, store. The main downgrade is the size of the rooms. The queen bed room had just enough space to walk along the sides of the bed with only a little more space at the foot of the bed. The kitchenette area is the bathroom sink, mini fridge, and closet all in one space.

Beautiful property, though rooms are quite small. Staff was excellent except one girl that did not show a high level of customer service as the rest of staff. Maybe she was just having a bad day?

This was the first time I ever spent the night on land in Avalon. The Atwater was fabulous. The staff was so nice and patient. I would definitely stay there again in the future.

For the $500 a night cost this is a very underwhelming hotel. Tiny room with very bright lights that don't dim. AC unit took 3 hours to move 2 degrees. Great location and friendly, helpful staff.

I didn’t expect it was that small room as well as shower, feel like I spent a night in cage, swing my whole mood off when I opened door of my room and in the end they charged me $45 destination fee which they never mentioned earlier so overall it was bad experience.

Front Desk staff had an attitude problem. I didn't feel that I am welcomed. Looking for a luggage service and only received run around. Called several times to get a hold of Hotel staff and bell service personnel at the port. Ended up walk all the way from the port to the hotel.
