Perfect character for Carmel and location couldn’t be better for beach and shops
Pros:

Beautifully maintained, convenient, bed was so comfortable

Cons:

No air conditioning but only hot during day. Cooled off at night so still slept great. They provided a fan which helped!

Amazing location, cute cottage but unfriendly front desk staff and 2am fire alarm wake up.
Pros:

Amazing location in Carmel with the cutest flowers all throughout the inn. Definitely try to get a cottage away from the main inn as it was much quieter!

Cons:

The fire alarm went off twice in our cottage at 2am and then again 30 minutes later so did not get good sleep. When we brought that up at checkout, the receptionist was pretty rude and asked why we didn’t call the front desk at 2am to report it.

Pros:

L'emplacement est parfait à mi-course entre la plage et le centre du village. Une grand merci à Daniela pour son sourire au petit déjeuner tous les matins. La chambre était spacieuse, équipée d'un frigo, d'une machine thé/café.

Cons:

C'est juste dommage que le vaisselle du petit déjeuner soit en carton.

Pros:

Good location. Pretty landscaping. Continental beakfast average.

Cons:

Staff 'put out'. Not friendly nor accommodating. Interior old and very strange layout. Bathroom location separate from vanity. No end tables. Toilet 18" from floor. Access for many rooms not safe for seniors as there were many stairs, (some spiral).

Pros:

The bed was comfortable

Cons:

The breakfast was sad, they could really splurge for better quality food plus there’s a lady watching over you while you get your items which made me feel uncomfortable.

Cozy, comfy 3 nights
Pros:

Comfy bed, hot, strong shower, warm pool, nice breakfast, and Rocio was a wonderful host. Parking off-site was easy when the lot was full. Oozes charm. Good office for taking work calls or just sitting in the beautiful picture window. Pack & Play provided worked great for my son's bed

Cons:

It would be nice to have towels by the pool and more decaf in the rooms, but both are small, easily solved things.
