Fran's place is awesome. If you've ever stayed on Catalina, you know the hotels are old and kinda jenky. Well, Fran's place is cute, quaint, and super convenient. 20 minute walk to the Catalina Express Landing, 10 to town.
It's simple, but comfortable and warm. The shower is strong and large. There's a coffee pot, an electric burner, and a mini fridge. The bed is super comfy. There's even a pool in the complex. Would definitely stay here again anytime I come to Catalina!
