The fireplace is great to keep our room cozy and warm. We were not able to park in the hotel parking lot but were lucky to park on road side close to the hotel. The location is perfect to walk around Carmel. Enjoy the stay.
Large room where we could park our bikes. Walk to the beach or downtown. Very quiet. Tight parking.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Loved the location, the privacy, the quiet courtyard. Room was perfect for 2 with one dog. Bed and pillows were comfy. Easy walking distance to pet friendly breakfast, lunch, and dinner places, plus all of downtown. The beach (off leash) was a bit further, easy to get to, but a bit of a walk back up.
Rooms were very clean. Nice staff. Nice front office with coffee and tea. Loose bricks so be careful walking. Great location. Enjoyed the fireplace a lot.
Good communication from the front desk, the room was clean, & the staff was accommodating overall. It is located close enough to walk to shops & restaurants. Not far from the main beach on Ocean Avenue. Thank you. We will return.
Looks better in person than in the pictures! Clean room. Parking is very limited in their lot. Street parking would be next available. So close to everything!! Walked everywhere. No AC but room was cool at night.
The hotel gave us a family friendly, tranquil vibe the whole time that we stayed for our three day vacation. The location was perfect if you want walkable to restaurants and convenience store. It has a quaint cottage feel, the rooms are big, clean, and staff are friendly. Will come back here again and will recommend it our family and friends.
We loved our stay here! Inge at the front desk was so kind and helpful. She gave us all the information we needed for parking and our stay, making it such welcoming experience when we arrived.
Parking lot is small, but there are street parking spots around that have no time limit that were easy to access and find. The rooms are quaint, clean, and cozy. The fireplace is such a great touch and we loved using it every night. It is easy to light and has instructions. Free coffee in our room was also a nice touch! The grounds are also beautiful.
The Inn is located in the perfect location. Only a 15 minute walk to the beach, walking distance to all the restaurants and shops of Downtown Carmel, and peaceful and quiet at night. We cannot wait to stay here again!
