Andrea

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
I wanted to like this property but it is not nice. The rooms give “1995 Hampton Inn”. And for what they charge a night, it’s not worth it. I also had to leave unexpectedly a day early and they refused to refund me the one night, even with expedia assistance on the matter. Carmel is lovely and highly recommend but would avoid this hotel.
