Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
There’s a a lot to love about this place. Fantastic location, easy to walk into town and enjoy Carmel. Staff was great. Very clean inside and out. Rooms have been updated nicely. Loved that there’s a fireplace. The not so nice is that we had some very loud neighbors so didn’t sleep well. But that’s not necessarily property’s fault, and the bed was very comfortable. Breakfast, so so. Overall, book it. You will not be disappointed.
