  • Engine customer Jul 2026

    Very convenient for EV cars because the Tesla charging station across the mall which is across the street and a Vietnamese restaurant next door. However room is small and pool is small

  • Engine customer Jul 2026

    Our rooms were clean, the bed comfortable. Staff were friendly and helpful, lots of outdoor sitting with a few Barbecues. The whole property was well maintained with beautiful blooming flowers. The pool was heated and clean. Parking can be tight. I will definitely stay there again.

    Great place

    This is a converted Motel--put a paint job and a new bathroom vanity and apparently you can call it an "Inn". They even charged for parking, right outside your room window. It worked for a few nights but it's just a "Motel".

    Clean rooms, clean property, cute, affordable, convenient location to Carmel by the sea, beach, shops, and restaurant

    Great experience

  • Engine customer Jul 2026

    Easy parking, clean room that was basic but fit the needs, nice staff. The only complaint I have is that it said breakfast was included when in fact it is not included. There are items for sale in the front office, but the way I understood at booking was a continental breakfast available and included in the price of the room. Other than that the room fit what was needed!

    My husband left his laptop in the room and when I called the next day they offered to ship it to us. We were able to pick it up, but the gesture was really appreciated.

    We stayed in Room 161, located at the end of a small hallway. The hallway lights were out, making it very dark and unsafe to enter or exit our room after sunset. Upon arrival, the floors were gritty with sand and dirt. The bedside lamp was unplugged because the electrical outlet behind the bed was damaged as the grounding prong had broken off inside the outlet, creating a potential fire and safety hazard. On our second day, we requested housekeeping to empty the trash and leave extra towels. When we returned around 1:00 p.m., the room had not been serviced. Since our young children needed to nap, we placed the trash outside ourselves. The extra towels were never delivered. We also found a significant amount of debris under the beds, including shoes, used brushes, and other items left by previous guests. It was obvious these areas had not been cleaned thoroughly. The staff was friendly, and the property has potential, but the cleanliness issues, lack of housekeeping follow-through, and safety concerns mean we will not be staying here again.

    The property was very clean, with easy parking and close to a lot of different places. The staff were also very helpful and friendly. Would definitely recommend staying here!

  • Engine customer Jul 2026

    Charged for parking which seems petty. Room was clean and comfortable but no frills per se.

  • Engine customer Jul 2026

    Location is great

  • Engine customer Jul 2026

    It was a nice place. It would have been a best place if they have continental breakfast too for a traveller like me to get a quick breakfast instead of roaming around in the morning for my breakfast to save time and energy.

  • Engine customer Jul 2026

    Todo como debe de ser muy bien

  • Engine customer Jul 2026

    Great place to stay during our road trip. Close to the aquarium and downtown. Convenient access to main roads.

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    In a really convenient spot but away from traffic! Would 100% stay again.
