The room was very clean. Housekeeping is by request and we liked that. The plants are well maintained as well as the physical hotel.
This hotel is located right across the street from the farmers market that is every Thursday.
Property is at the top of the town so a long way from the beach, but easy access to the main shopping and dining options of Ocean Ave. The property is in excellent condition and the staff were friendly and obliging. I had a room on the 5th floor which had a wonderful view across the town to the ocean.
Absolutely loved this property! Great staff and even better location in Carmel By the Sea! Walkable to everything! Couldn’t recommend enough! Would stay again.
Lovely large rooms and easy parking. Beds were very comfortable. Beautifully kept pool area and flower borders. Great to have breakfast included although the choice was quite limited. One of the rooms we booked was quite noisey from an air conditioning unit from a shop at the back of it.
I’ve stayed here multiple times over the years and it’s usually a very friendly experience. Maybe it’s a new ownership, but the staff wasn’t very kind this time around.
The property is in a great location walkable to all of Carmel, which is great. Room was nice and very clean. The only issue we had was the people above us were very noisy. The walls are and we could actually hear their TV but other than that I have no complaints. Everything was fantastic.
This hotel was in the best location! My fiancée and I did not move the car once. We were able to walk to everything and we had the best time. The room had a fireplace and was so cozy!
