Corola the property manager was amazing. The power had gone out in the area right before we got there, she was going to get us lanterns but it came back on so we called and let her know. Unfortunately the power only stayed on for 15 mins and then went back out the rest of the night. We disnt want to bother Corola to come out with the hope the power would come back on. Overall the property is very nice and bed was comfortable. Will need to visit again so we can really enjoy it more with power next time :). Corola was really amazing and refunded our night which really went above and beyond to make sure we had a good experience. Appreciate her and will be back in the future.
Things started out great before we even arrived. We recieved a text from property managemnent telling us our room number and door code. We walked into the room and noticed quite a few things.
1. The room was small, but not terribly so.
2. The room had literally everything you could want or need for an enjoyable stay. A coffee maker with a full compliment of coffees. sweeteners, etc. None of those stupid plastic envelopes with one sweetner, one powdered creamer and a stir stick. (I hate those). Closet with pleanty of hangers. Extra blanket, etc.
3. The bathroom also had everything you need.
4. The towels were high quality and very soft.
5. Pamphlet with Local dining and shopping areas.
6. the bed was very comfy and the pillows are first rate.
All in all a fantastic deal for the price.

Perfect Spot for a Chill Weekend
This small re-imaged motel was perfectly located for a chill weekend visit to Carmel Valley. Right in the heart of the village...plenty of outdoor chairs to enjoy a cuppa coffee or glass of wine, and a small pool to relax by. Priced right, too. Would stay here again in an instant.
It is small but clean, with a nice pool. The gardening is nice and gives each of the room an outside area with some privacy. Check in and out was easy and efficient.

A nice place to stay with our dog. Large room, comfy bed and small kitchenette. Nice morning coffee selection. The location is great, wineries, restaurants and small shops within easy walking distance.
Cute little place for my quick stay! Will definitely stay again!

Was not able to turn on the hair dryer. And the soap dispenser in the shower only dispensed 2 squirts on the first day. None after that. For we elderly people, perhaps handrails for safety in the shower would be beneficial

Quirky and Convenient
The property is quirky more than it is European. The sheets are softer than almost anything I've ever laid on, wow! The towels are fluffy and thirsty too. They put the little things in the room, fridge, microwave, WATER, knife, corkscrew, coffee maker, coffee and tea, cups, plates, knives, spoons and forks. Our hostess was kind and not terribly intrusive, just everywhere all the time minding the property as you'd expect.
A short walk or drive to lots of wineries and places to eat.
But this is Northern California, so there's no "budget" option, however, you eat so well, you don't really mind. Prices are high, but quality is too!
Overall three stars (mnore like 3.75, if I could give it) because it is more like a roadside motel than a "European Lodge" but that's okay once you get past the name. Enjoy this little space for a long weekend or just pass through.
