Very nice property, right in walking distance to good food and shops. We got stuck in the ground floor room next to the stairs, so that was kinda loud. But room and property itself was very nice and reasonable. Heater and fireplace made room cozy when it was a little cold. Would return.

Nice overall.

Easy check in and the facility is clean and reasonably well located. Main gripe is the bed AND the pillows are way more firm than what we are used to or see in most other hotels we stay in.

My wife and I loved our stay. Our room was on the 3rd floor and was spacious and we loved the huge fireplace which kept the room warm ( it was 53 degrees outside ). Its location was right in the heart of Carmel we walked everywhere. They provide shower essentials, breakfast included muffins, fruit cereal etc. very nice. I would definitely rebook here.
