Great front desk staff, room quite large (2 queen beds, very comfortable), nicely decorated, continental breakfast = coffee, tea, hot chocolate, OJ, various pastries, yogurt, & fresh fruit. Never moved our car after arrival since the main street, Ocean Blvd, was 3-4 blocks away, & lots of unique shops & eateries all around, & Ocean goes straight down a slight hill to Carmel Beach. Had a great 2 nights. Definitely recommend staying here.

The place is quaint and the surrounding areas are phenomenal. The cleaning staff is friendly and helpful but the front desk is not warm and fuzzy. The hotel needs an update but it does also need to keep its charm. Breakfast was continental, not many options.

Nice place close to town

Only thing I can complain about is the showerheads were made for somebody that’s about 5 foot two. So if you’re any taller than that, it’s very difficult to shower and the shower stall is built probably in 1950.
