"We stayed here for a weekend getaway and, unfortunately, left feeling that the overall value didn’t match the price. While the location and garden area are undeniably lovely, the actual living space fell short of expectations.The unit itself is a very small, outdated studio that felt quite cramped for a comfortable stay. Although there was coffee provided, basic additions like creamer or milk were missing, which felt like an oversight at this price point.The owner was kind enough to give us a thorough walkthrough upon arrival, which we appreciated. However, some of the details shared didn’t quite align with reality—for example, we were told the bathroom featured “the finest soaps,” but they appeared to be dish soap.The outdoor garden space is beautiful and well-kept, but ultimately, guests are paying to sleep and relax indoors. For us, the interior accommodations simply didn’t justify the cost, even with the added charm of the exterior.Overall, while there are some positives, we don’t feel the experience matched what we expected for the price."

"The house was perfect for our family vacation. Plenty of space and amenities. Garden was beautiful and neighborhood was peaceful. "

"Michael the property manager was so helpful and responsive. The house and property were beautiful, cozy and convenient. Everything I could have asked for! "

"The good: The location was great. Nice neighborhood near enough to Carmel but quiet and easy to access. The property was nicely landscaped. The house is roomy and was very clean. The linens were fresh. The TV worked well.The not so good: The pictures are not accurate. The house is dark and poorly lit. It is old and smelled a bit musty. The kitchen was poorly stocked. (No salad bowl, mismatched silverware, dripping faucet, old pots and pans that appeared to be from garage sales.) Old coffee maker. The master bed mattress sagged on both sides. It should be replaced. Shower doors did not close properly. There were ants in the kitchen and bathrooms. The WiFi was sketchy in some rooms. Old furniture.Overall: A good base of operation but not a place you would actually want to spend time in."
