Great location, free parking, spacious room, easy check in. Would definitely stay there again!
Suite was a little dated decor-wise but still very very cute, roomy, clean, great comfy bed and location couldn't be better. Perfect for all our needs.

Great location. Very nice staff. Enjoyed the stay a lot.
We booked a two-bedroom suite, which is the whole 2nd floor. The suite was very quiet, so we had excellent sleep. Parking in the area is understandably tight, but our suite had a dedicated parking spot, which was very convenient for us. Overall, it was very good experience for us for a one-night stay in Carmel by the Sea.
