Room was very clean and more up to date than I expected and quite spacious. Nothing fancy but the view was so nice and you go to Carmel to be outside. Perfectly located at the top of ocean drive shops. Nice walk down to the beach each morning was the best part for me. Convenient to have Bruno’s market next door too for quick snacks. I would recommend to all. Budget friendly meets quality stay!

We had a room on the 4th floor and had a nice view of the downtown and ocean! Room was clean, but there were some ants in the bathroom and we’d occasionally spot one or two near the furniture near the patio.

We really enjoyed our stay! Room was very clean, quiet and had all the amenities we needed. The location was super, steps away from downtown Carmel and the price was great too, considering how close it was to everything. Staff were friendly and nice too. We will be back!

Room was very nice and appeared clean. There was an odor (from cleaning agent ?) that took a day or so to minimize. It was a beautiful but unusually warm day when I arrived. I turned on the ceiling fan that night …it is time to replace it! Otherwise, great location and a good stay.

The room and areas in the Inn we visited were all very clean. The outside was magnificently kept with beautiful flowers, shrubs and gazebo? We had a balcony that overlooked the beautiful area and you could see and walk to the sea ⛵ and beach. It was in walking distance of shops, dining, wine tasting, drinking, Grocery store and more. The room has a fireplace You do not need air conditioner because of the cool temperatures. It is a great place to just take in the scenery!!
