Nice property for family. We had a two room suite and it was like an apartment. It's an older property and it shows but bed and bedding were good. Appreciate the LVF floors. Clean. Walking distance to downtown Carmel. Quiet. Individual units. Parking right next to unit. Would stay here again.

Our room felt like a cabin. Which we didnt expect but were pleased. We stayed in 129 which was in the far corner away from the other rooms. Which was nice and had direct access to Guadalupe street making it easy to come and go. Room was a little odd, but everything we needed was there. I did panick when I realized there was no AC, but found a room fan in the closet that really helped move the air. It isnt hot in carmel, but I get hot easily. Property is a 5 minute drive from downtown and the beach. I would definitely book again.

This is a quaint, rustic Inn that fits the image of Old Carmel. I love that it is rustic as the homes around it fit into the same quaintness of the area. For us, it’s the perfect getaway to Carmel, not fancy but quaint and rustic.

The location is quaint but needs updating. We were there on a warmer day so it was not typical Carmel weather and the room was not set up for it.

This is different and interesting experience. Being in a cottage with great fireplace. This cottage experience is really was delightful. We unfortunately had quite a bit cold weather and rain. Bathroom wasn’t hot enough and we couldn’t take a shower. And a bit outdated makes you feel uncomfortable. But overall was very good.

Such a cute little inn close to downtown Carmel-by-the-Sea. Love that it's dog friendly! I will stay here again... the only thing that could improve is either having a water refill station or a vending machine to purchase water.

We stayed in the Ocean House. Spacious with good amenities including flat screen TV, microwave, mini fridge and in room coffee. The bed frame was squeaky and we couldn't get the heater to work. Otherwise, very quiet and peaceful.
