Towels and bedding were clean and comfortable. Lots of dust over bathroom vents. Too much outdoor light coming in through the window blinds to have a great night of sleep if you like complete darkness when you sleep. Great mini fridge in room. Eco friendly large prefilled soap, shampoo, and lotion. Ingredients of products would be great for people w allergies. Liked location for walk ability to town; not close to beach but walkable if you can walk downhill
Then uphill on the way back. Michael who checked me in was helpful in explain my room didn’t come w a parking spot and that I would have to park in the street, but I could park in the lot for the first night because the inn wasn’t too crowded. I was glad I got a great deal for a midweek stay via Hotels.com otherwise some of the other issues would have bothered me a lot more.

Unbelievably loud people upstairs and no one in office to contact. Didn’t want to contact people in the party, given the kind of sad, unpredictable violence in our society these days. Barely slept and left early.

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!

The property's location was good for walking downtown and the beach. But the parking is not available for my room. On-street parking is available but limited to only two hours.

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!

Great stay! Only concern is that the walls are thin and could hear the people above us stomping around and shutting doors throughout the night.

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.
