This hotel was great for what we needed. Rooms were bigger than I probably thought they would be and were spotlessly clean. The free breakfast was good too , in a very small room but managed to get a good selection into a small space. Definitely worth a stay here if you are looking to stay in Carmel

Nice room even with strong cleaner

Great location and a nice remodel. The only complaint is that they use an « industrial «  cleaner which has a very strong smell and makes the hotel feel cheaper than it is.

I would absolutely stay here again! Fantastic location- walk to all the shopping, dining that Carmel has to offer. I struggle to sleep and found the bed and pillows (silly, right!) super comfortable. I very much appreciate that. The room decor and functionality was simple and clean. The one challenge we found was finding parking on Saturday evening. After that we were fine. Highly recommend- enjoy your stay!

Very minimal parking

The location was very convenient, close to downtown but the parking was challenging very minimal spots at the Inn. It is mainly street parking & could be several blocks away, very challenging & disappointing. We won’t be staying there again.
