An unexpected hotel, every corner is a view, small and exquisite. The service is very good, the breakfast is great, the room is small but comfortable. The location is very good, 5 minutes to go out for dinner and shopping.

Carmel is a typical American wealthy town. The hotel fully interprets the old money style, revealing a low-key and luxurious taste everywhere! Located in Carmel Town near the sea, there are a few free parking spaces (take your chances). The room is very small, and you can't even open the suitcase, but the bedding and toiletries are very good. The hotel's breakfast is very good, and the bar is also very good. In the evening, the hotel lobby will distribute self-baked cookies. The staff is friendly and smiling, which is commendable.

The design of the hotel is very good. I like the retro American style very much. The breakfast is also very surprising. I will stay here again.
