8/10 Good
"I found this cute motel for its super convenient location and walkable to everything. The beds are SO comfy! The room could use some cosmetic updates but for a nice place to sleep it worked well for us and our dog. We enjoyed our morning coffee in the courtyard. It’s a quiet,small town so there weren’t any noise issues. Parking is all around and there are a few spots in their lot but we found parking next to our door and never moved the car til we left. Thank you for a great stay! We will be back :)"

The Quail

8/10 Good
"The Quail is a very nice hotel, but unless you're into golf, there's not much to see or do there. Carmel is about 15 minutes away by car, but if you just want to step outside the hotel and walk to nearby stores or attractions, there aren't any. The facilities and housekeeping were excellent - our only complaint is that the toilet was incredibly low-height - potentially a problem for people with creaky knees."
