Pros: Breakfast one day (but not both - didn't get a card for the second morning, didn't realize we had to fill it out for every morning we wanted breakfast - so make sure you fill out your menu card!!)

Pros: It's an older motor lodge style hotel, but the rooms have been nicely updated. It was clean and bed very comfortable. The Nespresso pod coffee maker is a nice convenience. Plus the location was a short walk from the main streets of downtown Carmel. Request a second story room, overlooks the ocean in the distance, otherwise I think your view is another hotel. Recommend for a short stay.

Clean
Cons: Did not get breakfast second morning
Our room faced right out to fire pit - loud
No fans / AC - it was HOT, air was not moving, and could not leave window open due to noise factor from street and fire pit
Parking lot is very small, tight spots

Cons: You can hear other guests coming and going in their cars and if they talk loudly in the driveway or on the corridors. I suggest that at check-in that the staff advise all guests to minimise noise at nighttime.

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.

Cons: Poor management clearly doesn't cater to its guests. Unwilling to rectify inconsistencies in billing between myself and our friends (we were charged $110 more for our stay). The management blamed booking.com for the problem and would not discuss it.
6.0 Good
Pros: The general location of the hotel was good. The breakfast that came included with the room was good too. They could have changed the main dish which was made from eggs and spinach. Exactly the same thing was served all of the three mornings we stayed there.
Cons: The dust ruffle on the bed was very dirty or stained. The bathroom was in need of a lot of work and details. The bathtub was two different colors and when you got into it the plastic tub cover had a lot of water trapped under it which was terrible. The walls behind and around the toilet were badly stained and unfinished. Rooms were not very soundproofed. Try oiling the hinges on all of the doors in the complex which you could easily hear from the other units. Someone should walk the individual units to look at what has not been attended to for some time.
4.7 Okay
Pros: Breakfast, Parking.
Cons: We checked in around 9PM, they gave us a isolated room by itself, facing the street, and sidewalk is right in front of room door. The bath room is under remodeling and not finished yet. Two girls stayed in the strange city feeling very uncomfortable. We locked the door and closed curtain whole evening, didn't want to go walk around at all. The front counter told us because it is late check-in, they gave all rooms to other customers. I stayed in Carmel village Inn 4 times in past 10 years. Each time I felt great. But, this night stay really made me scared and very fed up. I will never recommend this hotel to anyone anymore.

Pros:
Cons: While we thought we rec'd a decent deal at $360 for a single night for a deluxe king room, a day before our trip i noticed a similar king room for $100 less. Figuring i would just get a better room with a view, i was disappointed to learn that the room had no view and just a gas fireplace. I mentioned the discrepancy in the rates, but they only suggested that we should have booked directly instead and called in first to verify the rates and the available rooms.

Cons: We had a dispute with the two clerks on duty regarding our reservation: they thought that we had reserved three rooms while in fact we had only two. After a cordial greeting, the discussion turned into arguments. In the end we found that they have misread our reservation. No apologies were offered. Some patience and a simple "sorry" would have helped.

Pros: The location is great. The grounds are beautiful, very quiet, and there was ample parking. The bed linens are new and the beds are very comfortable. There is an inviting continental breakfast in the reception area.
Cons: We booked a deluxe king ocean view. Upon arrival, we were given a tiny queen room in the back of the complex, with the explanation that the deluxe room overbooked online and we were then assigned this room. After many requests for something else, we were moved to an ocean view suite for our second night's stay. Though the room was bigger and had a magnificent view, both rooms are old and tattered. We felt like we were victims of the bait and switch, with the confirmation of one room and the switch to another. And the rate we paid for the small queen room was the same as our neighbor's large suite. Though we were given a reduced rate on the suite for the second night, and the manager was very helpful, she was not apologetic for what happened
5.3 Okay
Pros: Its greatest attraction is the immediate proximity to the ocean.

Cons: There are many bed & breakfast inns in Carmel. So to compare really, for me it was about the hospitality. Check in was horrible! Lady could not have made me feel more regretful choosing them! She was rude, short, and essentially just handed us the key.

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.
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.

The staff was very friendly and helpful, helping us with our luggage and the transport and storage of our bicycles. We were able to leave our bikes in the manager's office, rather than chained to some unsecure bike rack outside or in our own room, which made us feel safer about leaving them and we really appreciated.

Pros: Beautiful lobby.
Distant views of water from our second story room.
Attached fine restaurant and cafe open in early morning for coffee, etc.
Friendly staff
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.
8.2 Excellent
Pros: Great location and friendly staff!! Pretty lobby
Cons: Smaller bed room even though it s ocean view
7.3 Good
Pros: The staff was very friendly and helpful to every need. The restaurant was excellent. Although old, the hotel is in excellent condition and well maintained.
Cons: Not a big deal, but it was a little warm and the hotel has no air conditioning. Of course in this area, many do no not have AC.
5.0 Okay
Pros: Location, Oceans Ave. The lobby was beautifully done. There is also the excellent Il Fornaio restaurant in the premises.
Cons: The room was really small, the bathroom claustrophobic. We had 3 large suitcases but barely had room for 2. There was no fridge or safe in the room.

8.0 Excellent
Pros: The entire staff was gracious and helpful during our stay. The room was beautiful and attention was paid to every detail.
5.3 Okay
Pros: This was a last minute reservation after our initial 3-day weekend trip was canceled due to snow blizzard. this was a pleasant replacement in a tourist type locale. We'd return to the Pine Inn.
Cons: Certain furnishings in the room had not been dusted in quite awhile. Metnion this to hotel staf and this was corrected. Also the bed sags in the middle.
6.4 Good
Pros: While not the nicest hotel I've ever stayed in, the slanted doorways and crooked walls gave it a quaint feel. The extras were great...loved the weather report provided the night before, the mint krispies left during the turndown service, the newspaper provided in the morning, and the bottle opener fastened to the bathroom door. The staff was very friendly and helpful, helping us with our luggage and the transport and storage of our bicycles. We were able to leave our bikes in the manager's office, rather than chained to some unsecure bike rack outside or in our own room, which made us feel safer about leaving them and we really appreciated.
Cons: Showers are awful! Hardly any water pressure so I had a hard time rinsing out my long hair.

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....

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.

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.
