Hidden Valley Inn

Nice quiet and beautiful

Wasn't there long enough to dislike

The view was beautiful, the property was well kept, location was great and quiet. Loved the lights at night

A spa would be nice

Beautiful property. Quiet and peaceful. Loved the patio by our room. Love the added blanket and lantern. They also provided towels for the pool. Would stay there again.

Nothing I didn't like

It was clean. Backyard lounge and pool area were nice. Cute back porch deck right off room in pool area.

Slight wear and tear of room interior, i.e. cracked tiles on bathroom floor as well as flaws in tub/shower area. (Perception is dirty tub/shower when in reality it’s worn areas. Shower head did not work properly, as the handle didn’t work to control water flow. Cold water hit my body because I was unaware of the dysfunctional shower mechanism. Additionally the shower curtain was blowing into my body while showering. There is NO curved shower rod to keep curtain from hitting your body! The “breakfast” of coffee and donuts was a joke! Poor value perceived with not a decent “free” breakfast available AND price paid! Out of multiple hotel stays on this current extended trip, other than Disney hotel property, this was the worst overall, BUT highest price paid. Would only stay here in the future as an ultimate last choice. Room cost should have been $150-$175, NOT $249! Look for other hotel choice before staying here. Was a 12 mile drive from downtown Carmel by the Sea. As I used the late check/in procedure and it was dark, the numbering on the units is POOR, as I had to get out of the car to observe the correct room number. This likely isn’t a problem during the day!
