Visited Carmel many times and this is my favorite mid priced property. Excellent location close enough to Ocean Avenue, but in quiet neighborhood. Spacious well appointed rooms with gas fireplaces for chilly evenings. O
ff street parking provided. Well decorated, but the furniture is becoming a little worn.

Lovely little hotel
Very nice room with separate living room with fire place and tv in each room. Well equipped. My only complaint is that the mini fridge must have had something spoil in it at one time…smell was awful. You should replace it. Not much parking but we got a spot.

Super cute
A very nice room with a comfortable bed and cute little patio space. The fireplace is great and easy to use. The only thing I wish the room had was a mini fridge.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The suite was spacious, clean and nicely decorated. We especially enjoyed coffee in the room and the complimentary reusable insulated water bottles and daily cookies and fresh fruit. The location was perfect for walking through Carmel and easy to walk to the beach.
