We were so pleased with the Briarwood Inn and will definitely stay there again. Excellent location, nice clean rooms, good beds, amenities, helpful staff. We did not have any noise issues -maybe we just got lucky with our neighbors. It is a great value for the money. Personally, I prefer a inn/motel with a little dated Carmel charm opposed to some super upscale inn/hotel with all new decor.
