    The Inn has a great location being close to Ocean Avenue and near many excellent restaurants. It also has covered parking which I find to be a plus. The bed was comfortable.

    This is a very quaint and comfortable inn with private parking. That is a plus in Carmel! The location was excellent for walking downtown and it was quiet. The room was small but very comfortable. The bathroom was pretty small but good shower. We would definitely stay her again!

    The property is very serene with a zen quality to it . The staff was welcoming and provided excellent suggestions for dinner and brunch. The beds and pillows were of high quality and extremely comfortable. The tea was excellent both in the room, lobby and at breakfast.

    Very cute loved the courtyard and Dutch front door and being able to see the ocean from top of stairs. Staff recommended place to eat which was right down from the Inn @ Brophys Tavern. Convenient parking spot at the Inn . We will definitely stay next time we are in town. Great value

    Wasnt sure what to expect as the pictures I saw suggested one thing (cheap for the area and time, and cheap for a reason) but boy was I wrong (or perhaps the pictures I saw were wrong). So imagine this inn / hotel as a collection of cabins spread out with gardens, outdoor yard to sit out in the evening, and peaceful n quiet. The cabin itself is rustic in style (it seems to be a style for this area) but so comfortable and more personalable than a hotel. Would definitely not hesitate to recommend this place!
