2.0 Mediocre
Pros: The watermelon at brunch was good
Cons: Paid LOTS of money for a room with a king size bed. This place is NOISY. The sound of people flushing their toilets or running their showers is incredible. The banged up used furniture in our room needs replacing. Knobs were missing from the end tables and chest. The upholstery on the two chairs were pathetic.
We parked on the street because this hotel does not have enough parking spaces to accommodate guests.
WILL NOT STAY HERE AGAIN.

Pros: Very clean. Very comfortable. Most convenient location. Excellent breakfast and outdoor fire pit.

Pros: Terrific location with a short walk to the stores and restaurants of Carmel, or a short drive to Pebble Beach. Private, quiet spot with clean, crisp and romantic rooms (some with fireplaces). Very friendly and helpful staff - swing by the lobby for wine and cheese in the evening. My only issue was the thin walls - we could hear the "activities" in the next room. Otherwise a great stay, comfortable, classic, and well located.

Pros: This place is so dreamy! We stayed at the Vagabond to celebrate our one year wedding anniversary and it was simply perfect. Staff was very warm and welcoming and loved the special touches with the welcome wine/cheese and champagne in our room. We even decided to get takeout just so we could enjoy the room and its amenities (fire place and big soak tub). It was also walking distance to restaurants, stores and the beach. I'd highly recommend this hotel for anyone that's looking to rest and relax.

Pros: The property was quaint with a courtyard to sit and a trickling fountain that made a peaceful setting for a good nights sleep. Upon arrival, we were greeted warmly and offered drinks and snacks. We were asked to fill out a breakfast form to specify from the choices what we each would like. Breakfast was brought to our room at a time we selected which was excellent. We really enjoyed that touch and felt the extra touches which are automatically part of the stay made the hotel a good value for the cost. Hotel is very conveniently located to the shops and restaurants in town and a short walk to the beach. We came by 17 Mile Drive which is minutes from the hotel.

Pros: Breakfast was okay; nothing to write home about. The outdoor area is pleasant.
Cons: Lack of personnel - When I arrived, the front desk was vacant, but for a sign that said, "Will return in 15 minutes". After waiting 20 minutes, i called the number finally someone came. Room very small. Location is NOT "steps from Carmel Beach". It's about 9 blocks from the beach. That description is misleading. Air conditioning was not working, nor was the refrigerator. When checking out, once again, nobody at the front desk.

7.9 Good
Pros: Place was comfortable and clean, and they have light breakfast available as well as wine tasting in the evening. Staff was friendly.
Cons: Parking is terrible, there is none. You either find a slot on the street, which is all but impossible, or walk two blocks - up and down hills - to a public parking lot. We are older, so for us this made the stay very difficult.

Cons: The structure itseld is an old house - my window was actually overlooking the open corridor, not so compfortable as sometimes there were people coming or going. Walls and sound protection also on the soft side, but worked for me.

Pros: Location. Grounds.
Cons: A little tired especially in the bathrooms.

Pros: Hotel tried to portray a high end experience by providing milk and cookies at check in. Wine reception in the evenings. Turndown Servive at night and a decent breakfast buffet that is included.
Cons: Their premier ocean view rooms looked like a holiday In or 3 star hotel at the best. Very poor design and ambiance. Bad holiday in furniture , plastic trees and plants. I expected more for $500 per night, at least rooms that looked better. Also, rooms have no balconeys and hotel does not have a jacuzzi. It is possible that the hotel is offering value for the budget traveller (hard to imagine at over $500 per night). I did notice that better hotels where 30% more expensive when I was in Carmel. I would have preferred to pay about 30% more for better accomadations.

Pros: Friendly staff. Beautiful setting. Beautiful property.
Cons: The value for the amount of $ for the room. Our first room was 200 (maybe less) sq. Ft. And you could hardly walk around the bed. Second room, (after complaining) was huge! And on the first floor so we were able to walk out to the garden. — I think when you book through a 3rd party, they give you the worst room in the house.
5.4 Okay
Pros: The view was nice, but that was mostly thanks to Carmel being stunning.
Cons: Very noisy! Don’t underestimate the other reviews. They’ve got an old steam-based heating system that has a ton of air in it. As a result, you will get woken up all throughout the night to loud banging noise, like someone is taking a hammer to a steal pipe. The sound is coming out of the heater in the room. Do not choose this hotel if you want a good nights sleep.
Also very dated rooms. The quality of the room is about what you’d expect from a Travelodge, it does not in any way live up to the $400+ price tag.

I also liked the on-site parking and the sound of the ocean in the evenings. It's also in a very cute neighborhood that is just a short walk to the beach and to the main, downtown shopping area and restaurants.
Cons: The bed's mattress was very broken down and uncomfortable (it sagged a great deal in the middle/wasn't supportive and needs to be replaced with a firmer mattress). There were dogs barking (we didn't know that they were having a poodle parade and that they were making an exception to allow dogs that particular weekend) late into the evening and in the early morning hours, as well as people stomping around in the cottage directly above us - it sounded like they were moving furniture or playing with their dog late into the evening and early in the morning during our entire stay. There was also a very cold, windy draft coming from the window located directly above the bed. Even though the window seemed shut there must have been a leak in the frame or seal (that was our best guess) so we were also unusually cold, all throughout the night, which made the lack of sleep and the uncomfortable mattress even more unappealing. Fixing the leaky window frame/seal and replacing the sagging mattress would be a big improvement. Also, reminding guests that stay in the upper level cottages to observe quiet hours, as a courtesy to the guests staying on the lower levels underneath them, would also be helpful since going on a vacation often involves the desire to get some much needed quality sleep/rest.

Cookies and beverages throughout the day! Staff is very friendly and helpful. Great guests and easy ambiance. Lots of flowers and fountains. Hummingbirds abound.
Cons: Our room was clean but we felt it could use a little TLC. The bathroom faucet gave us challenges (handle kept falling off). Some of slats on blinds needed fixing and that was a bit important as we experienced a record heat wave (for October). There was a portable fan provided and we used it! This upstairs room might be quite warm during summer afternoons; it was during our unexpected 80-degree Oct. heat spell. Nights cooled beautifully and with the windows open, we could easily hear the surf. The view from our front window framed some of the most beautiful and extended sunsets and we could see the Pacific. I’m short, so the dormer-style ceiling was no problem; that was not the case for my taller husband. Still, I’d happily stay at Green Lantern again.

Pros: I like the location, the rustic look and the fireplace, the room was very clean.
Cons: I was a little disappointed the first night because windows a single pane glass and it feels really cold if you stand next to them, also the entry door threshold didn't have the rubber part that seals the bottom and the cold air was getting in through it, we had to use the towels to make some source of seal, the first night was very cold even with the heater and the fireplace running all night, but the rest of the nights it got pretty comfy.

Pros: Our room was attractive and clean. Great location. We were in a room with one king + one double bed. There was one full bathroom + another half bath, which was good to have.

Pros: Really nice hotel in the very centre of Carmel. Nice room. Comfortable beds. Friendly, helpful staff. Very good buffet breakfast. Very nice atmosphere. Definitely recommended.
Cons: The hotel is difficult to find if you are not aware where it is. The main entrance is on Ocean Avenue, next to Lush (in 2019), but it is easy to miss. There is a parking space outside for drop-offs, but the main car park is at the rear of the hotel. Parking in the main car park is limited, but there is plenty of safe, free, street parking after 5:00pm around the hotel.

Cons:
9.1 Excellent
Pros: Close to every restaurant you'd ever want and walking distance to the beach.
Staff were incredibly kind and accommodating.
Cons: Low ceilings meant that I kept hitting my head and hands on the ceiling fan.
The view was not great and there was some kind of industrial restaurant motor running all night.
Plus, the room was incredibly hot, even when it was nice and cool outside.
4.2 Okay
Pros: Location is terrific. Common rooms are lovely. Breakfast is adequate.
Cons: Almost everything. Assigned wrong room at check in, then made us move. Parking spaces inadequate, ended up having to find parking on street 2 of 3 nights. View from our room (#21) was an asphalt roof. Housekeeping failed to empty trash, or replace soap that they removed from soap dish. Front desk staff could not clearly answer even rudimentary questions regarding directions or local attractions.

Pros: Beautiful lobby.

Thorough daily cleaning staff
Cons: Room was VERY warm, even with the radiator off. The windows had to be completely open throughout our stay, day and night, for comfort.
Walls and floors are thin, as often true in older hotels -- you will hear some walking and talking from above and next door.
5.4 Okay
Pros:
Cons: Hallway was slanted by 6 inches. No elevator. Limited parking. Cigar Smoke and Noise rose from the restaurant below and the noise went until 11:30 pm despite there being an ordinance for quiet time at 10:00. Dark and dingy looking hotel lobby- very uninviting. Old hotel and it looked it. Absolutely every sound and voice could be heard from next room.

Pros:
Cons: The power was out and we had to take cold showers. With comfort inn being such a big chain, there should have been a back up generator for situations like this. We live in the 21st century where technology and science are at its peak. The host or person who worked in the front (Gita) was not apologetic, nor were we informed about the situation. Such an expensive stay with mediocre service and hospitality. When we told her that we took cold showers, she was like ohh well I didn’t because I woke up early...like wow....

Cons: Walls were thin. neighbors were both chronic coughers. The sleep and bed were honestly the worst we have ever had in a hotel. The bed rocked and rolled when either of us moved a muscle. It also creaked and rattled loudly with every move from either of us. It was like a trampoline on a noisy wooden creaky boat. We were both awake for much of three nights. The toilet drip-dripped-dripped all night. The bedding was lower quality. The slick comforter spent most of the night slipping around and on and off the floor. Sheets were lower quality and would not stay fitted to the bed,adjusted all night.

Cons:
2.8 Mediocre
Pros: Only one positive and that was location. Walking distance to main shopping area.
Cons: Room appears to have started renovation and never finished. Missing mirror in main room so left wall with glue and holes. Holes in ceiling from old ceiling fans or light fixtures never patched. Multiple thermostats, NONE operational. Shower broken and must be run with tub on full and not draining to get enough water through the shower. Black bugs. Staff was unhelpful and downright shady. For $400 a night my expectations were higher than a sleazy motel.
6.2 Good
Pros:
Cons: Did not have a mini fridge in our room even though it was stated that there was.
5.1 Okay
Pros: Close to downtown.
Cons: On the website it said they have a pool. When we got there they said the pool was closed for the winter even though it was 80° out. They should update their website to reflect this. There were only four cars in the parking lot but they put someone in the room right next to us And they decided to wake up at 5 AM and start talking very loudly. It's only for family staying there they should've split us up to give us some privacy and quiet. Remote for the TV did not work as well.
The Carmel Inn & Suites is located in the beautiful Carmel-by-the-Sea, CA, only minutes from the downtown shopping center and the beach. The property is also only a 5 minute drive from the Monterey Bay Aquarium.
With a stay at Carmel Wayfarer Inn, you'll be centrally located in Carmel, within a 5-minute drive of Carmel Beach and 17-Mile Drive. Featured amenities include express check-in, express check-out, and multilingual staff. Free self parking is available onsite.
