"Room was very clean throughout, even had a small ocean view. Price for room was excellent. We left early the next morning (it was dark) and the stairs down from the second floor were not lighted, which I feel is a safety issue. The receptionist was very nice, but could not print out a recipe and thought she was finished with us, but not supply the room key or room number"

"Had a nice stay at the Avalon. Close to the bay it was nice to walk down ti the shops and restaurants. Room was clean, nice and comfortable. Only issue we had was that there hardly was any water pressure and the first night the tub wasn't draining when we showered. It seemed to be fine the next night though. Overall can't wait to visit again and stay here"
