Liked: Cleanliness
The staff is friendly and the room was clean. It is comfortable. But if you are looking for charm to match Carmel by the Sea, this is not the place. Also, when I arrived they had no record of my reservation. They said Hotels.com had not informed them. I had to show them a paper print out of the reservation.

Not the best place to stay

Check in was at 3. got there at 2:50 to see a sign saying they will be back in 20 minutes. waited for 40 and still nothing. Left and came back, had to wait after ringing and knocking for the staff, finally called the number for the person to come out. got a room just to have the keys not work.
