The hotel is conveniently located, within walking distance to downtown Carmel and close to the Main Street stores and restaurants. The rooms were relaxing, even though a bit small for a family of four. The service was friendly and hospitable, and the dining experience offered good pastry and local bakery delights. Overall, a charming non-corporate hotel experience in a beautiful setting that's worth staying at for the convenience and friendly ambiance.
