The location is quaint but needs updating. We were there on a warmer day so it was not typical Carmel weather and the room was not set up for it.

This is different and interesting experience. Being in a cottage with great fireplace. This cottage experience is really was delightful. We unfortunately had quite a bit cold weather and rain. Bathroom wasn’t hot enough and we couldn’t take a shower. And a bit outdated makes you feel uncomfortable. But overall was very good.

Such a cute little inn close to downtown Carmel-by-the-Sea. Love that it's dog friendly! I will stay here again... the only thing that could improve is either having a water refill station or a vending machine to purchase water.

We stayed in the Ocean House. Spacious with good amenities including flat screen TV, microwave, mini fridge and in room coffee. The bed frame was squeaky and we couldn't get the heater to work. Otherwise, very quiet and peaceful.

Don't stay in the Wildcat Room in the summer
The location wasn't bad. You can walk to downtown in about 10-15 minutes. Ideally next time I'd stay closer though. You get your own parking spot right by your room which is nice. Room was clean. Check-in process was quick and easy. The downside was that there was NO A/C. Our room didn't have any shading - we were in the Wildcat Room (don't get that room in the summer). There is only a header and portable fan. When we arrived in the afternoon the room must have been 90 degrees. Way too hot! For a $300+ room this was ridiculous. They could have started to cool the room before check-in. Had to have the fan going all night which was loud. The second night I asked the front desk for a second fan to help blow some of the heat out, which helped. Wouldn't stay here again... at least not in the same room.

The room is very old. It needs to be repaired. The toilet was wobbly and tiles around the tub were loose. One of the window screens was not seated well so bugs could fly in. No air conditioning but there was a fan in the closet. Not a lot of plugs. Parking was interesting. When my friend pulled out, her car was on three wheels! It’s very steep. Be careful Lots of fluffy towels though!

This is probably our 5/6 visit to this place. We love the little cottages and the price is always fine. It isn’t fancy, at all, but it is clean and comfortable. There is a cute two room cottage that we have gotten with our son and single room cottages for when I travel with just my spouce. There was a hot tub on previous visits, but it isn’t even listed and there seemed to be a lot of construction happening.

Great place for cheap!
The stay was great for the price. I would definitely recommend if you are looking for a place to sleep for cheap. The room was way bigger than I expected. The room looked super clean but when my friend spilled some water on the floor the towel was black after wiping it up so not 100% clean but everything was good enough for the night. They provided multiple fans, a heater, had a nice shower, mini fridge, microwave, and multiple TV’s. We felt safe and the customer service is great.
