I could hear the folks above me clearly moving around as the floor above did not muffle the sounds of their footsteps etc - fortunately they were quiet after 10 pm- Otherwise, the room was pleasant - loved the gas heater/stove - And the staff was very accommodating - Nice flowers too -

Verified traveller

Liked: Staff & service
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!
