We’ve stayed here several times in the past few months as we are renovating a house. It’s always clean, the bed is comfortable, and the bathroom has been updated and is a decent size. We appreciate the breakfast on busy mornings. The location is excellent. I know parking can be an issue for some people, but it’s never been an issue for us. If the lot is full, there’s plenty of parking on the street.

The front desk staff was phenomenal- very welcoming and they helped me make my trip changes in a way that truly worked for me. They definitely put the customer experience first. Great job to the team - including those who helped out in the Dining area (Daniela!). Grateful for my time there. Thank you for a restorative stay!

I very much like the location of this hotel. Right on the main drag, close to everything. Parking is sufficient, though not on site. The room and property were very clean/tidy, and in the vein of a traditional Carmel offering. The proximity to the beach is as good as it gets. The amenities in the room are a sticking point. It does have, to its credit, a coffee maker and fridge, as well as a TV with many channels. The pillows were perfect. Downsides are few but worth mentioning. There are few outlets, and fewer in logical locations. The mattress was due for replacement. And the shower cannot be turned on without getting sprayed with cold water first. Overall, all livable. I’ve stayed in much worse spots, including in Carmel. Very good budget-friendly option worth consideration.
