    Older property and difficult to access the lobby and no elevator. We could hear talking and walking around above us on the upper floor.

    Close to downtown. Clean and friendly staff. Very European in size and minimal amenities

    Definitely, coffee pots and mini fridge in the bathroom are a no-no in my book. Also, there are many more gluten-free options in the world than a power bar.

    The hotel is definitely older but our room was very clean. Quirky room layout with mini fridge and coffee pot in the bathroom. Only outdated power bars for gluten-free guests like me. It was cold so we didn't use the pool although it also looked very clean. If you find a parking spot on the street when you arrive, take it - because parking spots associated with the hotel were full, and we weren't there during peak tourist season. The location is very good, which was the main reason we booked there. Very walkable.

    Very welcoming historic hotel. Our room was small, however it had a sunny balcony with sea views. Facilities were good. A light continental breakfast was provided, however you had to take it to your room. Free parking at the hotel and outside. Location was great with a short walk to Carmel.

    Location was on the hill of Carmel, but still walking distance to the beach. Food was a simple continental breakfast, but coffee or tea was good. No bathtub in my room, but the shower was fine if older. The place had charm and loved the dutch doors to see the view and get fresh air.

    It was a little bit old fashioned and a little bit noisy from other guests walking past the room but only minor things.

    Great location in walking distance of all the restaurants, bars and shops in Carmel. Free parking at the hotel. Good sized, well equipped room. Continental breakfast available in the lobby if you want it.

    The breakfast is minimal and there is no place to stay while eating. This morning there were 2 apples and 2 oranges, one yogurt yoplait (the cheapest yogurt ever) and one piece of pastry. We had to split and ended up going elsewhere for a decent breakfast. No eggs, no other fruit, no water, no toasts and not even one piece for each one of us. Disappointing.

    Location and the spacious room
