Really quite charming...

We found Le Petit Pali to be very comfortable. That said, we booked through hotels.com and got a fairly reasonable rate for the area (with which we're familiar). I've noticed that some of the reviews cite prices almost double what we paid, and to be totally honest, this would be a different review if that had been our price point. The positives: A comfortable bed, an abundant honor bar, good water pressure and a rain-style shower. A lot of thought has gone into the detailed French country-themed decor. This is a great location, downtown Carmel and the beach are within walking distance. Complimentary wine at check-in and evening cookies. We didn't attend the continental breakfast or evening drinks. Complimentary bottled water, and oat milk for coffee were nice touches. We used the Bluetooth speaker without issue. There was a great wall-mounted gas fireplace that threw lots of heat. Negatives: The room seemed dim until we optimized the lighting. Swing-arm reading lamps were cute but fiddly and out of reach once in bed. There is no folding luggage rack. It can be noisy because the closest intersection leads uphill out of town, so vehicles accelerate. There is no tea kettle and trying to heat water in the Nespresso resulted in tea water with coffee grounds (yech). The property doesn't have an ice machine. The bathroom has a sliding barn-style door, which doesn't seal completely, so not a lot of privacy (there is a very quiet fan). This was our biggest complaint, to be honest.

Grumpy check-in staffed and loud room

If not for the grumpy check in guy ( latino gentleman with a ponytail) and the fact he hat after being quiet unwelcoming he placed us in a room near the ice machine and trash shoot, we could hear guest and staff utilizing them at all jours of tge day and night so sleep was hard to cone by.

The hotel looks cute but it felt like a place that was more about show than substance. The location was very convenient for walking around town but quite loud. The room looks nice but has very little storage for your things. I appreciate the nice looking end tables but would it have killed them to select something with a drawer? The bed wasn’t comfortable. The door to the room had weather stripping on the bottom but that still left about a half inch gap at the bottom. The bathroom door is a barn door so anyone else in the room can hear you use the loo. One morning they were completely out of yogurt. It was delicious yogurt. I get why it was popular. The things they did have were nice but not a ton of selection.
