We were so thankful to find the reasonable accommodations were very clean and comfortable. The location is very quiet and the staff is very accommodating. I would highly recommend this hotel. Their landscaper offered to help my husband while he was in their parking lot. He went above and beyond for us. I should also say their landscaping is beautiful. You can tell the people working there take their jobs very seriously. Thank you for making this comfortable stay a memorable part of our trip.

Needed a room in a pinch due to a power outage in Carmel and 1252 helped us out. Room was fine, small, basically fit just the bed and tv stand. Big bathroom. But if you need a motel this one worked great for us. Nice staff in the front.
