The Hotel is in town within walking distance to stores and restaurants. Staff is very friendly and helpful. Ticket office for excursions is close by also. I suggest paying a little extra and getting a room overlooking the ocean.

It’s a great location on the main st in Avalon - nothing fancy - but clean and safe. You do have to climb stairs to get to it.

Excellent Vintage Hotel!
We stayed 3 nights in an oceanfront king for my wife's birthday celebration. Great place! Room was nice, clean, and comfortable. It is a little on the smaller side, but it is a vintage venue and they make good use of the space. Well laid out for a couple. Staff was friendly and helpful. View was amazing, looking out over the water and harbor. This is right in the middle of everything, so the sounds of music and people were pretty constant from around 9:00 AM until 10:00 or 11:00 at night. We didn't actually mind it, though. The sound of the waves on the shore could also be heard above the rest of the revelry, so the ambiance was still beautiful. And, once the din of people tapered off at night, all that was left was the repeating waves throughout the night. Very relaxing. We would definitely go back again.

The property is older but well kept. Staff was friendly and helpful. I am a senior and don’t walk well. It was great having the ocean right out the front door. Enjoyed our stay and would stay again.

The room we stayed in 213 had a weird mildew smell and it was right by the vending and ice machines, which made noise all night. It was also annoying that we had to check out an iron and ironing board by leaving our ID. I wouldn’t recommend staying here unless other rooms are more spaces and less noisy. Also, the wifi didn’t work.
