To start we were greeted with champagne on arrival. We were then given a tour of the inn ending in our room. The room the Mariposa is a second floor walk up just above the breakfast area. The view is unbelievable with both bay and cove view.
The windows open so no small children. We did not hear noise from the breakfast area. The fireplace is a fake electric unit no heat noise or flame. Hard to see unless the lights are off.

The bed is comfortable but if you have a C Pap the only plug is on the right side. The left plug is switched and connected to three lights.

The room was clean had a k cup in the room. The inn provided k cup pods and water. The bath has soaps conditioner and shampoo. Bow dryer in room.

You are in walking distance to light house cannery and downtown

We spent three nights in the Crespi room. Our room and the common areas were exceedingly clean and well-kept. The staff was always helpful and available. The dining room for breakfast is a magnificent setting with a wonderful view of the Pacific Ocean. The location of the inn is convenient to Monterrey, Pacific Grove, the 17 Mile Drive, Carmel-by-the-Sea, and Big Sur. We drove in and around all of these areas and did not see a place that we would have rather stayed. We will return to the Seven Gables Inn.

I really loved the beautiful room, view, location and comfortable bed. What was a real disappointment was the breakfast -- terrible coffee, broken toaster, undercooked large potato cubes, quiche that was just a fluffy joke, pathetic tiny pastries and the only protein was hard-boiled eggs. The final insult was a silly mask requirement while in the dining room. Glad I read the reviews and brought my own smoked salmon to put on an (untoasted) English muffin. What the heck is so hard about providing bagels, a toaster and how about some cold cuts? I will not be back.
