It was fine. You have parking for one car in front of your room, if you have a second car you need to find street parking. The bed/pillows weren't super comfortable, but not horrible. Thankfully there was a portable fan in the room since there is no AC. Location is nice to be close to Carmel without being right downtown

Spacious

The place was great and the room was very spacious. But the linens need to be washed very well to remove the odor.
