We won't be back.
Pros:

The location is great because you can walk to the beach, restaurants, and shops. The motel was recently renovated.

Cons:

We booked our room 6 months in advance for our anniversary get away weekend. When we arrived, we watched the two couples check in ahead of us receive welcome glasses of champagne and given water bottles for their rooms. We got neither. Our first room was above a restaurant and very noisy. We asked for a different room, and they said there were none. The second day the power in our room kept going out so we got a different room. No apologies. They told us we needed to move within 20 minutes because they needed to clean the room before check-in! Parking can be an issue because of limited spaces. It is a refurbished motel that is way overpriced. There are many better options in Carmel.

Great experience
Pros:

Very cute, nice decoration, comfortable bed, great location, on sight parking. We did have a bigger room. The regular room might be small but still nice.

Cons:

The black out shades did not black out all the light
