Reviewing the Moments that Matter

Excellent location. We visited with warmer than usual weather and still stayed cool since the windows and dutch door could be opened. Breakfast is a standard hotel spread, and parking is limited but wasn’t an issue. We would recommend a room on the second floor. We could hear every move of our very noisy upstairs neighbor which woke us very early. Perhaps bring some earplugs if you’re a light sleeper.

Nice lodging option in the heart of Carmel-by-the-Sea! Nothing noteworthy to report about the overall experience - negative or positive. Comfortable with limited frills. Clean and well-maintained common areas and rooms. Expectations were matched as advertised online. Hard to beat the location, walkable to practically everything in town and all the way to the coastline! Unfortunately this spot is not pet friendly, which such an option would likely justify an additional star in my view. And availability of breakfast starting at 8:00AM is a bit late for my liking. All-in-all, I will not hesitate to book again the next time I travel to Carmel-by-the-Sea!

This was one of our favorite hotels on our 2-week California Adventure! The building is very charming and we loved that the windows were open when we arrived. The exterior doors are Dutch doors (so cute!); unfortunately did get a chance to use them, but they seemed very secure. My husband and daughter also loved the coffee / hot cocoa machine. It is a great location, and the shops and beach are walkable. While parking is free, it is also very limited. We did not have a hard time finding a spot, but we were also strategic about when we left and came back. It's a small complex, but the walls are thin and we could hear our neighbors talking and could hear them using the bathroom facilities.
