Weekend getaway....

We were late booking our trip and couldn't find anything at all in Carmel or Monteray! We decided to stay here because it looked nice, they had a hot breakfast included in the room fee, and it was a half hour from the destination we wanted, The location is close to the freeway, not a very picturesque neighborhood but the hotel is right next to a field that is actually very nice to look at (we had a room facing that). I can't say enough good things about the hotel itself however!! The room was beautiful, perfectly clean, had very nicely designed furniture (like a night stand that doubles as a table). The staff was very friendly and accomodating and it was really a nice hot breakfast with eggs, biscuits, sausage, pancakes and everything else you could want. We actually thought about staying another day just because we liked the room so much! I would definately recommend this hotel.
