Nice spot and accommodating a last minute booking. They were able to do a late check in too. Walls are thin so we could hear our neighbors who were up late, but wouldn’t deter me from staying again.

Very cute property and private rooms. My only complaint is the sound insulation. If people are walking through the property at night or in the morning you can definitely hear them.

I stayed here for two nights with my boyfriend and it was private and clean! We really liked it overall however the AC was broken and the bathroom door didn’t fully close. Because it wasn’t too hot when we stayed, it was okay without AC but I can imagine it getting pretty stuffy in the summer. We walked to the downtown area and the beach and it was a safe and beautiful neighborhood. Would definitely stay again!

My boyfriend and I stayed here for a few days and had a wonderful experience. The property was quaint, peaceful, and incredibly relaxing. Exactly what we were looking for in a Carmel getaway. Our room was spotless, and we appreciated that all of the amenities and fixtures felt new and well maintained. The staff was friendly, welcoming, and attentive with cleaning services throughout our stay. We felt comfortable from the moment we arrived and thoroughly enjoyed our time here. I would definitely stay again and would recommend this inn to anyone visiting Carmel.
