Many choices at breakfast that were skillfully prepared. Great location for enjoying the town of Carmel by the Sea. Only negative is the parking is tight. It seems they have exactly the same number of parking places as rooms.

The rooms are teeny tiny and there are no amenities besides breakfast and fire pits. There are many places nearby that were a bit cheaper and probably just as good. We were a little disappointed.

Property is new and clean. It is similar to new Holiday Inn Express. The breakfast is horrible at Stilwell. Hotel has no elevator so all guests should enjoy carrying their bags up the stairs. Not a great experience for the price.
