Liked: Cleanliness
While we liked our accommodation and the location was great, there was a lot of noise which made it difficult to sleep. Since the room had shared walls/floors we were awake from 5:30am in the morning from the heavy footsteps above our room, to the noise from next door at around 7am. The inn is also an older property; walls were thin and the floors were creaky. We would also have liked an electric kettle in the room, although the dining space was nice and had refreshments throughout the morning.

The Green Lantern Inn is a wonderful place to stay. For the price point, the location is unbeatable—within walking distance to both the beach and the heart of Carmel. The property is quiet and peaceful. We especially enjoyed the cozy fireplace in our room. The staff and manager were excellent. We hope to return next year!
