The room was a good size but the building was older. The bathroom could use an upgrade. For the price we paid per night it would be nice to have a coffee maker and fridge in the room. Definitely over priced with no amenities other than coffee in the lobby (unfortunately we booked at the last minute).

The gas golf carts drive by throughout the day and late into the evening. We had a room on the distant ocean view side which was nice and basic. No fridge, just a bed and nice bath with large shower. We didn’t spend much time there as we were down on the boardwalk. Great view from 6th floor patio deck ! Clean, basic..

DO NOT STAY HERE particularly if you are given room 101 or 102. I have never written a review for anything before but it was so noisy I did not sleep for more than an hour throughout the night. First it was drunk visitors talking in the lobby which was directly outside the room until 4 in the morning and then I could hear every word the staff was saying starting at 6am. I was on a quick trip visiting Catalina to check out additional hotel options for my upcoming wedding and this will be the only hotel I add to my website as an absolute DO NOT STAY to make sure no one has to go through that. I’m aware we were probably given their worst rooms but the fact they rent them out to people for $400 a night is terrible. They will also not store your luggage for you if your boat leaves later than your checkout.

We really enjoyed our stay at Hotel St Lauren. The location was super convenient and we loved having a little balcony to go out on and enjoy the view. Don’t listen to the bad reviews. It’s a great value for the price!!!!!

Hotel is super cute but a little outdated, mainly the bathrooms and lamp shades in the hotel room (a small detail I know but still affects the vibe. It's such a simple fix why not update the late 80's lampshades? Lol). Hotel is old which is part of the charm, but walls were paper thin, I could hear the woman in the room next to us coughing all night. Felt like she was in our room. Lastly, they don't let you store your bags after checkout. I've stayed in dozens of Catalina hotels and this is the only place that does this. All of these things aside, the room was clean, cute and had absolutely amazing views if you have a room with a balcony, which makes up for the cons. Location is good, but slightly up hill, so definitely a bit of a hike to get to with all your bags if you're walking, but still in town (about a 3 min walk from the boardwalk). Would stay again for the views.

It was a very nice place to stay. It was clean and friendly. Wish the balcony on the 6th floor had good chairs to sit on. They were all broken. They did have lawn chairs but they were low to the ground.

I booked this hotel through Expedia. I showed up to check in, the entire hotel was locked up and no one was there. I called the number more than 20 times, left messages, two days later I received a call back to let me know the hotel was closed for “maintenance”. Do not book here!

Ck in with a young Man who wasn’t nice and concerns centered around signing off on the damage waiver than assisting me as a Guest checking in for an Expedia week long stay. Asked for a fan as the A/C points into a wall and a refrigerator. Both were quickly dismissed so I bought a fan & an ice chest. They were available to receive those as a gift.

This place needs an upgrade and makeover. Bed was sunken you could feel the coils, linens cheap and scratchy. Room noise, musty smell, the 6th floor deck view is pretty but don't be fooled by the posted photos. The patio furniture is old and falling apart. We paid over $350 for a motel 6 quality room. Not worth the $ quest sleep Eder and my neck is linked and body aches from the bed mattress that needs replacing.
