The hotel is in a great location. The room was clean. It felt like an old motel with an inexpensive remodel done. I was there for a wedding and the ironing board was child size. Every time the people next door opened or closed it was like they were in the room. The door had a visible opening on the bottom & I was concerned something would crawl in while sleeping. I also did not like prices on ever...

Cons (-) In room thermostat went from 60 to 80- it would not hold temp near 70 degrees. Restaurant has only bar food.

Pros (+) This little hotel was clean, neat, stylish, family and pet friendly. The staff was very nice and incredibly accommodating. The restaurant wasn't half bad either. Its a drive to Carmel-by-the Sea, but only steps away from the shops and restaurants that locals actually frequent.
Cons (-) It's right off of a major road, which is convenient but not as quaint and quiet as the rest of Carmel. Still a great value!

Pros (+) Great Inn with a nice staff and comfortable facilities. Location is great, we really enjoyed our stay here. The staff was wonderful as well.
Cons (-) Don't get the breakfast buffet, the food served was the only downside of an otherwise great stay.

Pros (+) Pretty room with nice balcony, free wifi, & good location.
Cons (-) Heater was on full blast on arrival, thermostat issues, TV needed to warm up before working properly, very poor customer service, & there was suspicious "stain" on comforter. They did end up giving us a 20% discount off room rate for the thermostat inconvenience at time of checkout.
