The location was perfect. We loved the breakfast they brought to our rooms each morning and in the evening complimentary wine and cheese. One of the few hotels that also offer parking. Had the best stay here. Would highly recommend ❤️

Lisa Australia

The free bikes and breakfast were a bonus! And wine hour!

Garon United States of America

it's right in Ocean Ave which has a ton of shopping places and restaurants. the Carmel beach and the trail are both at a walkable distance which was great for me and the dog

Sarah United States of America

Excellent location at the start shopping and restaurant district just within walking distance of the Pacific. The place is like an upscale old style motel with nicely appointed yet a bit small rooms. The fire pit was a nice gathering place where we met some very nice and interesting people during the (free) wine and cheese tray service in the afternoons. All in all a very nice experience!

Tom United States of America

Comfy, clean, up to date rooms with a very comfy bed! Loved the wine and appetizer hour by the fire pit! Breakfast was perfect and loved how it was delivered to the room!

Siv United States of America

We loved our stay, but the electrical outlet in our room was inoperable so I could not blow dry my hair. Otherwise I would have given it an exceptional rating. The decor was very charming and we liked the location.

Tamara United States of America

Housekeeping was superb. Loved the fireplace. Loved bathroom equipment including robes. Loved aesthetic beachy decor. Bed, bedding, pillows were really comfortable. Loved Price and Location. Loved HAPPY hour to meet other guests and drink good wine. Staff were friendly and helpful. A great breakfast basket delivered every morning. Outdoor seating, fire pits and especially parking were a big bonus.

    Asked about: King Room • Answered on July 5, 2022
  • I was quite disappointed when i called to reserve that the pet charge was $75. This is 3x the charge at comparable properties i stay at in Carmel such as Cypress Inn and Carmel Country inn. Your reviews are good but that charge is way out of line!
    Please be advised our pet fee of $75 is a one time fee per stay not per night. Cypress Inn has a $30 a night fee. Carmel Country Inn is $20 a night.
