“Not great or up to expectations. I know a storm isn't their fault but what they did to customers bad”
Location is nice very walkable and easy to get to beach and downtown. A cute hotel in general just a horrible staff and a crazy owner.

“Very quaint, very nice people, perfect location!”
The Normandy Inn is adorable. It’s an old property with a lot of charm and is perfectly located in the heart of Carmel. The continental breakfast offers enough to start the day and the front desk ladies are very nice.

“Quaint place near the beach and shops.”
We liked the location of the property. Only about 3 blocks from the ocean (to the left) and a block away from the stores, shops, bakeries, etc, (to the right). Modern shower & bathroom. Bed comfortable. Pool area looked quaint, but too cold this time of year to enjoy (or for it to be open). Breakfast area in the morning had pastries, bagels, cereal, juice, hard boiled eggs, yogurt, coffee & hot tea.
