Very nice staff, easy check in. Room was big. The bathroom could use an upgrade (we stayed in the Stafford room). Wish there was a fan in the room. The location of the hotel is great! Easy walking distance from all the shops and restaurants.

This was the cutest little place while still being affordable. My husband especially liked the half door. I liked the little alcove/courtyard or room was off of.

Property was fine, small kitchen but perfect for storing items in the fridge or freezer. The wifi in unit M1 was terrible and the service for AT&T isn't good in Carmel.
