Pros:

The staff was very friendly, attentive, & informative. I had a great stay here.

Cons:

The shower drain backed up a little, that was the only complaint I would have. Otherwise it was a great stay.

Good time. Comfortable stay.
Pros:

Nice little place. Good location.

Such a cute boutique hotel in a fairytale town
Pros:

I love the aesthetics of this hotel, everywhere had a pink element, quite standout from those boring ones. The location is perfect as well, not far from the town center.

Cons:

The bed is a bit too soft..

Cons:

Unfortunately there was construction being carried out next door which was very noisy and started at 0730, not the owners fault but it meant it was not peaceful.

It was ok, we’d try other similarly located place next time. It was very pricey for the value.
Pros:

We liked the location the most, walking distance to Carmel’s center

Cons:

The property is “tired” looking … it’s clean but worn out.
The should not advertise “breakfast included” as all they offered is plastic wrapped muffins and bananas. No place to sit and consume this. Grab and no.
