They state in their pictures that the rooms were all European styled. Our room was very plain. Not one picture on the walls. Nothing special at all. Breakfast was ok but the ladies who run the show watch over everyone like a hawk. Very annoying. The location was nice and the beds were comfortable. But overpriced in my opinion.

Average hotel
Hotel was very nice but didn’t give 5 stars because check in is at 3 and we got there at 3:45 and the employee just kept saying you’ll have to come back after 3 because your room isn’t ready. When I questioned the time another employee said it’s because I booked last minute. Weird. Also don’t expect breakfast- it basically yogurt bananas or tiny muffins. Besides those two things the room was really nice, comfy beds and very clean. The hotel is in a great location to walk town. Also the am employees were very nice.

Quaint yet expensive
Our stay was great. We love Carmel. The room was good, it was clean. The woman at check-in was lovely. Overall, it was really expensive at $500 for one night. It wasn't worth that amount of money. The 'breakfast' is not great, pre packaged hard boiled eggs... some whole fruit, cheap pastries. I've walked by this hotel for years, and have always thought it looked quaint. It is. It was quite, which I was concerned about because our cabin was on the main street. But it was okay at night.
