Beautiful little Inn. Lovely area. We stayed in the Stephenson House. Perfect for my family of 5. Kitchen was nice to have and use for breakfast. Plenty of towels. Beds slept well. Clean and having a parking spot for the car rental was a plus! Carmel is a dream!

Such a cute apartment!! Lovely place in a lovely area. Very close to restaurants bar and the beach. The apartment was adorable but dated and needs to be refresh: carpet old, most of the windows didn’t close and we were lucky it was not too cold or too hot. Tricky parking!

Such a great 2 night/3 days!
Place was adorable. Great parking right in front of my room and I just left car there and walked into town. Great market right down the road and easy walk to restaurants and shops. It was quiet and safe and I had an unexpected tiny ocean view.

The checkin staff was very nice and welcoming. The room is disappointing. It’s very dated. The refrigerator was in the bathroom. The place for hanging jackets and clothes were low so you could only short jackets/clothes. It’s an ADA room so maybe that is the reason for the low hanging clothes rack. But there aren’t many rooms that are designated dog-friendly. The lock on the door was not very secure, no bolts, and no locks other than the one on the door handle. Parking is convenient. And close to main strip of Carmel-by-the-sea (Ocean Ave.) and beach. Unfortunately I would not return.

Nickel and dime…
The lady made it clear there would be no possibility of an early check in and made a point of it by closing the hotel for an hour right before check in. It was a courtesy she would not afford anyone. It says a lot about their hospitality.
